I thought I saw someone post that the $299 660 Ti might be only 10-15% slower than a 670. Does anyone else have any thoughts regarding this?

Do we know if the 660 and 660Ti is coming?
Faster than GTX 650 Ti , slower than GTX 670 , duh...
Launch MSRP $200-$329
And since we are at predictions...
Anyone knows what happened with you_know_whose prediction about Kepler
being fast via PhysX block. Being faster than Tahiti, but only in NV sponsored games;
elsewhere slower than Pitcairn.
Was he bamboozled or what?
I'd be better off with the 7950 3GB.
I have no idea how they retained 32 ROPs and 192-bit memory bus since I thought there are 4 blocks x 8 ROPs, each tied to a 64-bit memory controller.
Also ROPs aint linked to the memory bus.

Supposed GTX660Ti specifications leaked:

They have been selling this very same card for $500 and $400. Now at last, after some good millions made they are selling it at the price point it was meant for in the first place.
The 6$$ series. One chip fits all.
That got me thinking... that they're going to make a 24 ROP/192 bit 660 non-Ti with 6 SMXs and a 32 ROP/256 bit 660 Ti with 6 SMXs. Either that, or they're going to make the number of shaders per cluster a power of 2 and have 1024 CUDA cores... that would require a new design, however, and would also have to mean that some GK104s had such poor yields that too much voltage would be required to make them work and be marketable.It will have 25% less memory bandwidth, less ROP's, and and 6 out of 8 SMX's enabled (the gtx670 has 7/8 and gtx680 has all 8 running). If core clocks are around gtx670's range, then it will should end up about 15% slower at 1080p. Faster than an hd7870, but just a tad slower than an hd7950. Power consumption will favor the hd7870 over this card, but performance in most situations will favor Nvidia. If Nvidia releases a 256-bit, 6 SMX GK104 card, that would have a nice little kick to it, giving it much of the same speed differences between the gtx460 768 and gtx460 1 gig.
The specs looks wrong. Going from 256bit bus to 192bit with the same amount of memory and everything else the same. 20W less? Should basicly be same.
