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.

    Actually no game currently utilizes that much video memory (unless one does some funky pre-loading I haven't heard about). Heck few even use more than 512MB.
