Intel Aubrey Isle: specs and benchmarks
Summary
Intel started Aubrey Isle sales 31 May 2010. This is a desktop graphics card based on a Knights architecture and made with 45 nm manufacturing process. It is primarily aimed at gamer market. 2 GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 4.8 GHz are supplied, and together with 512 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 307.2 GB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is dual-slot card attached via PCIe 2.0 x16 interface. Its manufacturer default version has a length of 267 mm. One 6-pin and one 8-pin connectors are required, and power consumption is at 300 Watt.
