[quote]Originally posted by visigothe: ....no, there is no provision for a L3 Cache on the 970 according to the MPF presentation And that makes sense, since the 3.2GB/s pipes to and from main RAM and the generous on-chip caches obviate the need for one. -

Adding additional tags for the L3 cache in the 970 would make the chip larger than it currently is, thus driving up cost/heat/power. The L3 would be of minimal benefit, despite the lower latency, and wouldn't cost-justify. -- The Visigothe -
