Take these claimed nv40 specs with a ton of salt...
-----
Inside source gave some new details about nVidia's card, that is due to come out in the second half of next year (2004).

Same source was the one to give pre-release details about the current high-end card - NV30, even before Geforce4 was released.
Details were correct, about 90% of the data about NV30.

This information stands for only as a roadmap, and some of it might still change due to market requirements.

300-350 Million Transistors on 90-nm process
750-800 MHz Core
16MB Embedded DRAM (134M trans.)
1.4 GHz 256-512MB DDR-II Memory
8 Pixel Rendering Pipelines (4 texels each)
16 Vertex Shader Engines
204.8 GB/sec Bandwidth (eDRAM)
44.8 GB/sec Bandwidth (DDR-II)
25.6 GigaTexels per Second
3 Billion Vertices per Second
DirectX 10 (or extended 9.1)
Release H2 2004
