No, they're not... it's just a couple of misinformed users trying to stir the flames ;).

Didnt benchzowner say this would happen?
9900gtx/9900gts = g92b out June
GT200 = October/November
This makes more sense imo...
Cant see the 9800gx2 being knocked of the top by a single core card in 4 months...
it'll be sad if it doesnt.Quote:
i think r770 will outperform g92 variation
That's what I've been told at first.
But some days ago, the same person told me that they'll more than likely launch the GT200 card in mid/late June.
Launching both G92b and GT200 in June/July doesn't make really sense, but not everything has got to make any sense :D
They're making a big fuzz about the Editors Day in May, so they better have the goodies around :p:
Perhaps both can launch at the same time... GT200 and G92b that is...
GTX/GTS = GT200. Acts as the high end.
GT/GX2/???/??? = G92b. Acts as the mid end and features a cooler running GX2.
Purely speculation, seems somewhat reasonable though.
how much for the gts?
probably the only thing I can afford..ill probably step-up
The 9900 GTX will be single core gpu 1GB 512 bit?
I made the decision to sticky this and take the GT-200 thread down for a number of reasons. This is the upcoming Nvidia chip for now, even if it is only a refresh, we will most likely see a clock jump to battle the 4870s from ATI, and there will be more concrete information soon than the GT-200, for which the discussion was "ooh"s and "aah"s mostly.

This fits with what I've been hearing...
GT-200 is launching this summer, I stated that in the other thread, right before BZ confirmed what I had heard.
based on current trends, i think the amd and nvidia cards will probably be priced so they dont compete with each other. the better performing card will end up costing more.
I dont understand.... if the GeForce 9xxx series is remaining on GDDR3 memory than how are these cards supposed to be any better than or even compete with ATI RV7xx series or 4000 line of cards ???
Almost all of the new ATI cards will have at the least GDDR4 while the more top enthusiast cards are getting GDDR5....
I mean am I not the only one who is confused here....
BenchZowner said somewhere Nvidia is not gonna use GDDR4. AMD/Ati related maybe. hehee
IIRC, didn't we have these same kind of contradictory rumours before the 8800GT release? There was speculation all over the place that it was going to be some kind of 8800 Ultra killer, and then there was other speculation that it was just a process shrink midrange card. Was it theinquirer that had some info that seemed to be from a specific source that a high end replacement was going to be released first? So this all seems very familiar. I won't be holding my breath.
