Have you done ANY reasearch on the topic yourself? Just google G80 and read...

There isn't much on G80 other than speculation.
The only solid info is that it will not be a unified shader architecture even though its a 100% DX10 card. What is true is that Gemetry and Veretx shader parts will be unified or share the same block, seperate from the fragment units but that's about it.

There is some FUD at the INq about a 32 pixel pipeline part with 16 vertex units which can be allocated to either geometry shader programs or traditional vertex shader units. But that's just what thew INQ sez, so it isn't really meaningful.

NV has never been so tight lipped about a product before. It may not even be GeForce 8800. We'll have to see end of next month/early October

Sorry there isn't more info.
