"8800GT effect" not with GTX 460, but with GTX 465

[saaya]

yeah good point zanzabar...
what happened to fermis amazing scalability?
fermi has taped out how many months ago? 7? 8? and there still isnt a cut down fermi gpu...
and thats supposed to be a very flexible and easily scalable design?

ati had rv870 and rv840 launch within weeks, and a complete lineup from top to bottom within, what, 3 months?

its going to have been almost 1 year by the time gf104 is widely available in retail!!! 1 year! and thats not scaling at all, gf104 will probably replace gf100... nvidia will offer single gf104 for mainstream and dual gf104 for highend...

yeah, thats a very flexible strategy alright nvidia...
tbh i wish theyd have done this from the start... id have loved a 384sp gf100 for 250$ and they could have sold dual 384sp cards instead of 480s, which would have been faster, run cooler and cost them a lot less than 480s...

i really hope nvidia will finally get over their arrogance and revise their strategy...
the current market situation sucks, without any real competition and all... :/
