This chip will be refresh of slowest model in NVIDIA offer. Cards with G98 (D8M) are still named GF 8400GS, because changes aren`t numerous. What`s new?
- Support of HDMI and Dual Link HDCP (propably with using some chip)
- 65nm produce technology
- PCI-Express 2.0
- full VC-1 decode
Most important is that, G98 provide full VC-1 decode. First NVIDIA card with this. That`s mean, on boxes we will see PureVideo 3 logos. Clocks are this same, 450/900/400MHz (GPU/Shade/Mem) and used memory: 256MB DDR2, 64bit. TDP of all card will not be more than 30W.
First samples of this low-profile card should be already yet. WHQL driver will be finish in 7th November.

Yes it will support Full Screen video.

I dont use HDTV out.I have also not yet purchased 8800 gtx as it may not remain top-end solution for a long time . Waiting for GeForce 9.

Yes it will support Full Screen video.

Any source/proof? If sure,I will be the first to buy it. (This is the only reson still I am using my old Quadro, EVEN FOR GAMES, because Geforce 8 series won't support FULL Screen Video)

Man, Upto Geforce 79XX Nvidia supports 'FULLSCREEN Video' on secondary Monitor/TV.

But they stopped this facility in Geforce 8. None of the Geforce 8 series cards supprot ths. But ATI does.

I wonder if they activate it again in Geforce 9. Otherwise I will satu with Quadro FX.
