GTX 560 Coming soon!

[Nintendork]

Even at 820mhz this thing is going to take heads if it's priced similar to what we saw out of the 460 at launch. I'm expecting ~$250, not $300 like the 6950... To give you an idea, 800mhz on a GTX460 easily traded blows with a GTX 470. Adding those extra shaders should make this come extremely close to the GTX570. Overclocking will DEFINITELY catch the GTX570, and lucky cards should actually be able to PASS that card.

Fwiw, you already know palit will likely make a 2gb version of this, much like they did with the 460. Should help for those of you who demand top-resolution, seeing as how overclocking will probably allow you to hit the performance level where the ram can actually be put to use. Might be worth keeping an eye on, considering these days the price difference is $10 between the 1gb and 2gb(at microcenter, check yourself).

Either way, those eyeing the 6950 might be wise to wait it off for this release, merely to drop the price of the 6950 if nothing else. Even if you're already decided upon the 6950 and nothing can change your mind on it, if this is priced like I think it'll be we should see some big price drops on that card next month.

Regular 6950 will probably keep it's price. They can release a 1GB version for less price.

HD6950 2GB $299
HD6950 1GB $269?

With the release of 6950 current 6870 doesn't make any sense. Rumors point some price-cuts in january.
