No infomation has been released concerning the graphics card. The only infomation given to any magazines is that is will have the power of 100 processors.

Having 100 processors means nothing if those 100 processors suck. Heres the information I have.

PS3 Cell Chip Upgrade.

Sony, Toshiba to build new factories for PS3 processor:PS2 chip refined.
At a joint press conferance held in Tokyo in late April, Sony and Toshiba announced plans to build advanced semicondutor pants for the fabrication of faster and more complex chips as they look ahead to the next-generation Playstation console and other broadband network products. The announcements included confirmation that the Cell processor will be the main engine behind the Playstation 3, which squelches several rumors to the contrary. Althought Sony confirmed that Cell will serve as the heart of the PS3, it declined to give a launch date for the new system, only stating that more details will be revealed at its next business conferance.

The Cell chips are being developed in tandem with IBM as part of a five year project that began in 2001 and has as its goal a one teraflop-class consumer micro processor. If successful, the result would be a processor that could be implemented in household electronics, yet is more powerful than IBM's Deep Blue supercomputer. Sony has plans to reveal it strategies for Cell's use this year, debuting appliances with the chip inside soon.

Also, Sony revealed Dragon, a new chip that combines the technology that drives the current Playstation 2 into a single processor. Dragon is a one-chip version of the Emoticon Engine and Graphics Synthesizer, the two CPU's that form the heart of the PS2, that takes up only a sixth of the physical size of the two chips. Sony did not announce what Dragon will be used for, but it's easy to imagine it could be utilized for PS3 backwards compatibility or in a PS-one redesigned PS2 system.
