World's First 2GB Graphics Card Is Here

Posted by timothy on from the way-too-much-overkill dept.

An anonymous reader writes "TUL Corporation's PCS HD4850 is the world's first graphics card to offer on-board 2gig video memory. The card is based on RV770 core chip, with 800 stream processors and 2GB of GDDR3 high-speed memory." That's more memory than I've had in any computer prior to this year — for a video card.

    That's more memory, than I think I've had in all the 5 or 6 computers I've had over the years, including the one I have right now that has 1gb card. I don't even put that much ram into pc's, I bet that this thing would have enough power to run all the AERO stuff in vista.

    It's preying on the uninformed...a 2GB care is surely better than this pithy 1GB card...

    And I worked at CompUSA during college...I saw GeForce 4's with 512MB...*shivers*
