GTX 470/480 have GF100 which provides computing capabilities 2.0 GTX 460 has GF104, which has computing capabilities 2.1 - including 48 (not 32 as in all previous chips) processors per MP. I do not know anything about Tesla and other high-end hardware. I am not sure how it is related though. -- Tomasz Rybak <[email protected]> GPG/PGP key ID: 2AD5 9860 Fingerprint A481 824E 7DD3 9C0E C40A 488E C654 FB33 2AD5 9860 http://member.acm.org/~tomaszrybak
