Hardware-One has posted a review on the ELSA Gladiac 920 GeForce 3 video card
From the GeForce 2 to the GeForce 3, we saw NVIDIA move from a .18 micron process down to a .15 micron 7 layered process to squeeze an astounding 57 million transistors onto the small die space. With such a complex design and a transistor count that is 20% more than even Intel’s Pentium 4 processor, the chip runs hot as expected.Read more
The design fundamentals of the GeForce 3 has changed slightly from NVIDIA’s earlier chips, with greater attention paid to making more efficient use of the memory bandwidth and making its GPU more accessible via programmability.
