But as we’ll see in the power consumption chart, that’s that not necessarily an absolute. Given the timing and power improvements that we discussed with Nvidia when it launched GTX 295, we’d expect this new board to consequently use less power than the GTX 285. Nvidia differentiates the two single-GPU solutions by disabling one of the GTX 275’s ROP/frame buffer partitions, yielding a total of 28 ROPs and an aggregate 448-bit pathway to 896 MB of GDDR3 memory.
