Nice find,
Guess we know what the 285's will look like
wow thats a big bump in price...hope that's just the pre order pricing.
I just picked up a new 280 for that price.
It shouldn't cost that much for being basically a stock-clocked GTX 260 216.

From the FUD article:
I don't get where's the big deal then. Regular -65nm- 260s were able to touch the 700Mhz mark and the 55nm gpus -at least as shown from g92b- gain an extra 7%-12% overclocking headroom, which means that these new cards should be reaching -at least- the 750MHz to worth the wait. If not are we talking about a bad shrink, a bad batch? And if so, with the $300 price mark I see everywhere (while -in fact- the 55nm process makes the cards cheaper to produce than their 65nm counterparts), I don't see why the 55nm shrink is worth the wait, or worse how nVidia -even now, that does not have the crown- still tries to rips us off. This card should have cost closer to the $200 mark (30% less), no questions asked, even the cooler uses less material (and as such HAS to be cheaper to produce).SuperSuper clocked should work at, at least 666MHz, while we suspect that it might even reach 700MHz.
nVidia HAS the chance for a comeback, it would be really sad if they throw it -again- away. Their arrogance will turn even people like me, who were supporting them for years to come, to ATI fanboys
I don't believe the $300 price tag will stick, and, in fact, many retailers will be selling under that price point at launch, or at least shortly after.
For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.

I honestly cant believe that so many people out there think that a 10nm shrink is going to bring so much more to the table
I have a 65nm GTX 260 that does 760core 1536shader 1250mem all day long with the stock cooler set to 75%.
I remember when so many people with 55nm 9800GTX's were bragging about there 800mhz core overclocks when I had a 65nm version that did 860mhz on the core 2200shader and 1200mem.
It isnt worth the wait and it certainly is not worth the price increase.
And once you get a taste of ATI's driver work you will be running back to NV. Trust me.

If all people would share opinions in an objective manner, the world would be a friendlier place
hopefully these will overclock like the 8800's
Aren't the current non 55nm on clearance right now. I think 290 will be the price of the new core 216 55nm. Its kind of predictable because I expect it to beat its ATI counterpart(1gig 4870) which is 250 prior to a rebate. Not sure if it is fair, but I almost expect it to be 290 because of this.
What that means is people should get gtx280 at under 300 right now. Because once that deal is gone, all we will see is gtx 285 which will have a marked price difference but not so much performance.
On pre order in the UK at Scan now.

ive got bfg gtx260-216 overclocked 750mhz so is there any point me upgrading stepping up got 40 days left to step up so what will be worth the step up if it was worth it ? my resolution 1920x1080 thnx in advance.
No I don't think so, 750MHz is a superb clock on 65nm GTX 260-216, doubt the new 55nm would let you go further at all. Having a great clock on an older version is more satisfying than having mediocre on a newer better OC'able version if performance is same clock for clock, at least to me.
