    The original rumor that the GTX 200b (55nm revision) was pushed back to October and perhaps even as far back as December seems to fit with this current one.

    Nvidia desperately wants to take the performance crown back, they can try to do it with a GTX 290 (55nm, higher clocks, GDDR5) but to be honest it will still have trouble being a dominate winner.

    Nvidia would be smarter to make a revision to the GTX200 core by reducing what it can do, cranking up the clocks and making a Dual chip board. Something like a GTX 260 with its 8 'blocks' (vs the 10 on the GTX 280) however instead of just deactivating cores, making it without two of them. This should help with yields and costs which would allow them to make a GX2 chip, as well as get the clocks pretty high as well.

    To compete with AMD they don't need faster hardware, they need cheaper to make/produce.

    Yoda overdosing on amphetamines and a poor track record in English classes.

    For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.
