GeForce GTX 590 Specification

Though there is some time left before Nvidia’s latest dual-GPU beast – GeForce GTX 590 – will be presented officially, some e-stores have already began taking pre-orders for it. For example, one of the Canadian e-tailers has listed (currently removed!) Asus ENGTX590/3DIS/3GD5 graphic card, which is a reference design of GeForce GTX 590 with 3GB on-board memory of GDDR5 type.

The GeForce GTX 590 packs two GF110 graphics processors -- the same chip that powers the GTX 580, currently the fastest single-GPU graphics card available. Although the GTX 590's processors have the same core configuration as the GTX 580's, Nvidia had to reduce the graphics and memory clock frequencies to keep the card's thermal envelope within reasonable levels. Again, we saw the same compromise on the Radeon HD 6990.
