    NVIDIA GK104 Coming Soon?

    The die size is thought to be similar to the GF114 - so, I think the price will be <$400, possibly $350.... - I would say $299, but I don't think they'll go that low initially... if it's equivalent to the HD7950...

    All Aboard NVIDIA GK104 CRAZY TRAIN!!

    ' So when you say Fermi, you mean the GF100 - well, Charlie was certainly right that is was late - when NV was saying Dec 2009, he was saying March 2010, and he was pretty much right on that one - I actually think he had one or two disgruntled NV employees feeding him info at that point - but...

    BSN: GeForce 600 series 28nm oem-only refresh?

    Maybe the GTX600 series will include the rumored GF114 x 2 chip - i.e. the 768 shader part - would be a good stop gap until Kepler was done!

    GTX 580 SLI: 1.5GB vs 3GB Benchmarks? Anyone found any?

    Yes. BTW, did you ever try just GTX580 3G SLI? - I see on your other thread that you're now heavily into super-cooled Quad-SLI 3G, which looks like a lot of fun :cool: - but I'm sure the simple GTX580 3G SLI performance would be of interest to a lot of people :D

    Possible GTX 595?

    Actually, the GF116 (GTX550) has a 192-bit bus, and comes with 1GB - they do this by having 2 64-bit banks of 1Gb SDRAMs (4 chips), and 1 64-bit bank of 2Gb SDRAMs (2 chips) - so, the GF116, at least, can mix & match memory chips on it's memory banks - so, it's not completely impossible for...

    Nvidia's answer 2 the HD 6790 OR so they think...

    IMO, they should have called the new (non-Ti) one the GTX 550 (Ti or not) & the GF116 one should have been the GTS540 or whatever... - would have made the scaling more obvious, but made the GF116 card seem not so exciting (which I guess is why they gave it the exciting name of GTX550 Ti)...

    Nvidia's answer 2 the HD 6790 OR so they think...

    Yes, but it's not as bad as the GTX460 :rolleyes: Actually, it's fairly obvious, the Ti one is faster than the non-Ti one....

    Nvidia's answer 2 the HD 6790 OR so they think...

    At 800MHz, it should sit between the HD6850 & HD6870 http://techreport.com/articles.x/20293/14 At $200, that seems ok

    ASUS GeForce GTX 590 Video Card Review @ [H]

    Either the GTX590 has got incredibly power efficient all of a sudden, or you mean: 975mV! :D

    GTX 590 Final Specs/3d Vision Pricing/& More!

    Out of interest, GTX 580 SLI @600MHz vs GTX 560 SLI @ 900MHz - who wins? - which has better power consumption - and what if the GTX 560 has 2G / card - would certainly be cheaper for NV to build. ;)

    GTX 590 and GTX 550 Ti confirmed?

    Why do people think that the GTX550 is GF116 based? (or why does VRZone think that?) - is it shown in the drivers? It seems to me much more likely that the GTX550 would be the GF114 version of the GTX460 - i.e. 336 Shaders, with (say) a 750MHz clock I think that because 1) That's very much the...

    Latest GTX 560 rumors

    With 820MHz clocks, my guesstimate for it's performance is it'll be a little faster than the GTX 470 & HD6870, and about 90-95% the speed of the HD6950 - and my guesstimate for pricing is $249. :D

    6900 CF and microstutter

    I like the term 'micro-stutter' as a way of naming AFR-odd/even problems (which I think is what the problem is with SLI/CF setups) - general low frame-rate judder is just that - 'judder' I'm assuming SLI/CF micro-stutter is caused by the difficulty of ensuring the frames from each card are...

    HD6970 vs gtx580 benchmarks

    The extra memory is probably helping at higher resolutions...

    HD6970 vs gtx580 benchmarks

    Yes, but considering what he's being saying about NI/SI all year, he's got be feeling a bit foolish at the moment! :D
