still your pretty lucky to get to be there. I took on a huge responsibility and would love to have the ability to be a part of something that huge. Do you have the feeling that your at a special place and its the beginning of something huge?

Yes, it is a special place and i recognize that i am privileged to be here.

But this not the beginning .. i was at the beginning and i recognized it back in 2008 - my very first article for ABT
http://alienbabeltech.com/main/?p=643&all=1

And i was there at the first GTC in 2009
http://alienbabeltech.com/main/?p=11661
http://alienbabeltech.com/main/?p=11825
http://alienbabeltech.com/main/?p=11911

This time i got invited as a guest of Nvidia as press. The first two times, i paid for my own transportation and hotel (about 3 miles away) although i got the ($900) entrance fee waived before for GTC 2009. This time i am staying next door to the convention center at the Marriott.

GK110: Actual chip is to feature 15 SMXs (streaming multiprocessors) with 192 CUDA cores each. This gives 2,880 CUDA cores in total.

15 SMX's and not 16. Gee that sounds awfully familiar -- GF100 had 15 SM's enabled. I can absolutely guarantee you that is is no way that there is only 15 SMX's present on a GK110 die.

How can you guarantee it?

Because nobody designs GPU's with odd numbers like that. There is actually 16 SMX's, just like GF100 had 16 SM's, and one SMX is disabled, just like GF100 had a disabled SM.
