Depending on what is actually true, it sounds like Nvidia has taken a slightly different design approach this time.
R600 ... G200b
Are you implying gk106, has now become gk104? That would make some sense, with performance coming in between gtx 570 and gtx 580.
That thought did cross my mindQuote:

If this is true, and 3 ports can be used at the same time then they already sold one to me. I currently use 2 nvidia cards to drive 3 monitors (not in SLI) and would happily move down to just 1 card.Quote:

For the doubters, both of the current cards we saw have two DVI plugs on the bottom, one HDMI, and one DP with a half slot cooling grate on one of the two slot end plates.
Not only is creating an absolute out of a relative a no-no in statistics (they created a "Baseline" and called it "1") but all that can be assumed if its real is...
A) Our new product is better then our old product.
B) Our old product was crappy as compared to our new product.
C) We aren't very good at making graphs
D) If you liked our old products, specifically ones that still don't need to be upgraded from, you might like paying more for our new products. But we don't plan on comparing it to any competitor as that would ruin our sales pitch.
or, last but not least.
E) We like the color green.
[chiphell] Keep it classy nvidia, viral marketing discovered at chiphell, Kepler rumors debunked
http://www.overclock.net/t/1205407/c...umors-debunkedQuote:
Several media are a variety of domestic Kepler low prices, HD7900 will follow the diving like the article, take a look at the foreign media, who did not even reported, along with some media editors forum explosive in the major so-called "material "It is clear that a variety of moves NV's marketing activities in the water behind the army to suppress the HD7900 as well as leading the sales momentum, CHH to see these posts I will lock posts, I hope the members can self-load.
rough chinese translation. ALL of the posts related to kepler being 299$ from chiphell, and speculated performance, were from marketing shills (proven by the owners of the forum) and have been banned.
Charlie from SA was bamboozled as well. Keep it classy Nvidia.
lol, give me a break, viral marketing from nvidia. The translation is so ridiculously bad it could literally mean anything. The bit about the viral marketing is purely made up. Anything to give nVidia a bad name ey. :rolleyes:
Surprised if true. Charlie of all people would be most skeptical.
i hate to see the nv articles on s/a if true :rofl:Quote:

-low end (poor performance and poor price to performance ratio) For example: GT 520
on a side note. TinyTomLogan over at OC3D did mention in one of his videos that he has been testing some new graphics card and that they will be released on Tuesday (the 31st of Jan). what they are I have no idea. 7950's I would guess but I guess you never know.
Show us the proof please.Quote:

It is also ironic that one of the primary sites for misleading info about ANY GPU release suddenly had a blast of consciousness all of a sudden.
The only thing i know is a wide marketing rush have been initiate and we have all seen and feel it., since the official 7970 launch in shop, ( the 9jan ) there's not one day without a " leak ", " an info ", a "price ", a " release date " about Kepler.. i will quote Charlie who is preparing an article ( dont ask you why thoses 2 article was so short, see them as an introduction ) about Nvidia marketing : - " Wall Street will look as Gandhi this year compared to Nvidia "Quote:

Conclusion: - I will not take the words of Chipphell as true, not more as i take the other we have seen yet.... i think we are flying high so far to accord too much credit to what we read ( good or bad ) .. This make 4 days we are debating about the performance of Kepler based on a price..
So Charlie is no more Edelman or Bite and he's new nVidia's ho ? Weird world ... :D
lol...Quote:

What I don't get though is the endless rooting for a company to fail. While neither side is without fault... there just seems to be an extra dose of animus with the anti-nVidia/intel crowd. While I currently own intel/nvidia, I really wanted AMD to succeed with Bulldozer. I just wasn't going allow myself to ignore the fact the chip was a bust. I'm also glad the initial hd7xxx cards are fast. The better AMD does, the more pressure there is on Intel and nVidia to build killer products and actually compete for consumers money. At least at the end of the day I get to have a laugh when the same person who is always part of the very negative crowd didn't find his complaining about the HD7970's price to be any bit ironic.
Then why post it if you know it is wrong?Quote:

Early next week Nvidia starts manufacturers in Asia to present graphic cards based on Kepler, when full production will start in two/three weeks from now.
It's time to say something new. The first news (if true)is breakthrough new feature for PhysX and CUDA through its processing. If this thing really confirmed, it will be a big bomb. Further information concerning the power consumption to be thanks to the final respin very low. Respin also helped NVIDIA achieve high operating GPU frequency. As for performance, still true that middle-class Kepler card easily beats Radeon 7970 ...
You've probably noticed that the ChipHell banned some users, trolls who allegedly worked for Nvidia. This is bull, why would Nvidia Trolls worked there and not just for famous US/EU forums ... it's all only comedy. PS. Banned by a "nApoleon" biggest TROLL there ...
