NVIDIA to Counter Radeon HD 6970 ''Cayman'' with GeForce GTX 580

[Lanek]

They are renaming the 5770 and 5750, no?

Maybe, maybe not .. but let's face it... if all the series bring new feature as 3D, UVD3, new display features and other things, if they use the 5770 it will appears to be the low end, inititally dedicated for movies, HTPC (6400?).. you will get lower gpu ( Caicos, Turk ) with new features, then a gap with 5770 with not thoses features, then 6870 and higher end model with thoses features ? ...

maybe they will keep 5770 and then replace them in the 6K series later, but i really don't think they can bring new features on really low class gpu ( caicos ), average ( Barts ), high end ( cayman ), and keep a little 5770 ( renamed or not ) with the old features between 6400 and 6870... Ofc all the features i talk about are side of the gpu itself, maybe they will use the Juniper core and add just the 3D, UVD3 engines, and new displayport, HDMI on the PCB and then rename them 6450-6650 ....
