The Specs
| Features | Benefits |
| Single-Chip GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) | On-chip integration of the entire 3D pipeline (transformation, lighting, setup and rendering) offers the lowest possible component and board design cost. |
| Integrated Transform and Lighting | Delivers 2-4X the triangle rate for 2-4X more detailed 3D scenes. Frees up CPU bandwidth for physics and artificial intelligence (AI), which results in more realistic object behaviors and character animation. |
| Independent Pipelined QuadEngine™ | Separate engines for transformation, lighting, setup and rendering provide a very powerful, highly efficient architecture that delivers 15 million triangles per second. Allows applications to represent 3D characters and environments with the highest degree of complexity possible. |
| 256-Bit QuadPipe™ Rendering Engine | Four independent pixel-rendering pipelines deliver up to 480 million 8-sample fully filtered pixels per second. Guarantees highest color quality and texturing special effects at maximum frame rate. |
| AGP 4X with Fast Writes | Enables the CPU to send data directly to the GPU to maximize overall system performance. Avoids a costly data copy to and from valuable main memory bandwidth that graphics processors without Fast Writes must incur. |
| High-Quality HDTV Processor | Delivers the highest quality DVD and HDTV playback and digital recording. |
| 350MHz RAMDAC | Delivers the clearest, sharpest, most solid image quality at 2048 x 1536 resolution at 75Hz. |
| High-Speed Memory Interface | Design to support current SDRAM/SGRAM and upcoming SDR/DDR high-speed memory. |
| 256-Bit 2D Rendering Engine | Delivers the industry’s fastest 2D performance for ultra-fast screen refresh at high resolutions and 32-bit color depths. |
| Complete Support for New Microsoft® DirectX® 7 and OpenGL® Features | Ensures that applications can leverage the new features without additional cost or support. Guarantees best out-of-box end user experience. |

its 2020 and intel still stuck with skylakepavag - Sunday, July 3, 2016 - link
So, Anand was ranting about a top GPU from nvidia costing only 300$artk2219 - Thursday, April 13, 2017 - link
Hey man, thats like $432.87 as of January 2017 or pretty much the same, $428.93 in your time of July 2016 time traveler. Either way, Vega needs to put the smack down on Nvidias pricing, and you can stick that in your bucket young whipper snappers of the future. :Dartk2219 - Sunday, November 18, 2018 - link
Sadly Vega didn't do anything, here's looking at you Navi. Nvidia needs a smack down on their pricing more than ever.Doogiehowser99 - Wednesday, March 31, 2021 - link
Everyone would kill for Pascal pricing in 2021. What would 2000 Anandtech say about Nvidia flagship GPUs going for $2000. That's way above inflation. LolCHADD44 - Tuesday, February 15, 2022 - link
2022 and this still dominates gpu market
