hawkinsa21 sent me this little gem:

his news is thanks to theinquirer.net;

"Nvidia GPU can address up to 2GB of memory" - this is the message from someone closely linked with theinquirer.net

They have built custom cards for movie makers on the Quadro and don't forget that they have high end customers such as the military, who obviously need as 'real to life' simulators as possible.

As mentioned in the article, this is going to be used for 'insane' Full Screen AA etc for immersive realism etc.

Read the article here

Madness, and there's us gamers only getting 512mb! tut tut..... ........ maybe one day this will break into the mainstream for upgrade addicts to get their grubby mitts on........ you'd need to take out a mortgage for them though!!

Hrmmmmm. Hopefull some day on future vid cards we will have the ability to freely upgrade memory modules, etc. This obviously won't happen in the gddr3 era as the memory has to be soldered in place for it to function correctly.

Yet, someday I imagine we will be able amp up vid cards with custom high speed large capacity performance memory modules.

A custom 2gb Quadro would fuckin rape 3dmark05 :D
