who say it's credited??? not meagain, people using the inquirer as a 'credited source'
Whats shocking is the reports of it still being manufactured on 90nm tech ! and not 65 or 55nmWTF ?!
Why waste money on a die-shrink if you dont need to. The 8800 sips power compared to the AMD/ATI parts.
not quite true, as the new 2900pro is only 5% more power with alot more perfomance, and 10%-20% cheaper than the 320 gts. After the die shrink to 55nm expect ATI to pull ahead in all fronts. This is just my opinion of course!

no they arent. they change their info a dozen times and usually get it correct around the same time when everybody already knows something official. just go back and look at all the nonsense they said about G92 over the last few months.i dont know why everyone here bashes the inquirer. The are right 95% of the time....
I'm not impressed, either. Just more attempts by NVidia to milk the 8800 series. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, if the prices go down, but knowing NVidia, they are going to charge like these are brand new. This sucks. I hope the RV670 kicks ass, because otherwise we are going to have NVidia dribbling out these sorts of parts at high prices. This is year old tech, and my 8800 GTS 640MB is already getting strained by a few new games at 1920x1200. In another six to eight months, it probably won't keep up. I won't even discuss how the 8600GTS performs at 1680x1050, but you can guess since I have totally stopped gaming with that box. Bummer.

what's wrong the inq?? They get quite a bit of stuff dead on with the leaked info. Launch dates of any CPU, upcoming GPUs (they reported 2900pro 2950pro before anybody else except Fudzilla), tricore Phenoms, AMD's acquisition of ATI, Apple go to Intel, AMD 5000+ black edition, g92 info, future CPU price cuts dates, etc.
They dont' get everything right, but they as far as rumors go, they are a good read and you don't have to believe everything you read online.
I guess with 8800GT coming, there's really little point of keeping GTS 320 MB around. Gt may not be as fast but it will run cooler and more power efficient.
we look there because its entertaining to see what rumors are being spun. most of their info is wrong but people seem to only remember the last thing the inq says when they usually get it right. its sorta of like religion in that people ignore all the stuff that doesnt pan out and instead focus on the stuff that actually turns out to be somewhat true.they are not always right and they do change info once they receive new info. They are a rumor site for technology. Obviously with rumors there will be info that may end up to be wrong, but their track record is pretty decent for merely a rumor site. I think I would've stopped reading them if they are wrong all the time.
