NVIDIA GPUs to be made using 65nm process in a couple of years
PCUnleash posted the interesting information about NVIDIA´s future GPU roadmap. According to it, the company plans to increase the amount of transistors and reduce GPU size. (Well, that seems natural enough, doesn´t it?)
GeForce PCX will utilized Intel´s technology implemented into Alderwood/Grandsdale, namely PCI Express 16x. And GeForce PCX 5950 products will be based on GeForce FX 5900.
- GeForce PCX 5750 (GeForce FX 5700)
- GeForce PCX 5300 (GeForce FX 5200)
- GeForce PCX 4300 (GeForce4 MX)
NVIDIA PCI Express cards will operate via AGP-PCI Express bridge, a duplex High Speed Interconnect (HSI) with up to 4GB/s throughput.
The NVIDIA products will work via AGP interface, so a bridge to PCI Express will be required. On the other hand, ATI PCI Express products will have PCI Express interface implemented making such bridges obsolete.

As for industry prospects, NVIDIA believes the nearest decade will be as depicted below:
