I see absolutely no reason why the GT300 cards will not be ready by Q4 2009 considering their first tape out was over 7 months ago.

While in the past couple years, I've been quite skeptical regarding nVidia's recent claims about their forthcoming chips. But this time seems quite different and brings back memories of how quiet nVidia was about the G80.

Typically companies who run their mouths all the time about their upcoming "groundbreaking" GPU/CPU.... it almost always ends in disaster. (FX series of nVidia cards).

I'm even becoming quite concerned for ATI/AMD because they're by far the more vocal of the two GPU manufacturers.

I have a feeling nVidia is going to release a beast of a card later this year.
