Anyways a hypothetical GTX 6800 Ultra SLI from 8 years ago would be too 24 times less powerful than the GTX 690. That's more than five Moore cycles ago (32-40 times improvement), so Nvidia is getting a bit sloppy huh. |
not really it's just more transisters are put into things like cache and other components that don't actually conribute directly to the theoretical floating point calculations per seccond metric.
