I'm wondering if there have been any new rumors regarding the next Nvidia Kepler based cards. It's been relatively quiet since the 680 launch.

Look at the delay between the 580 and the other cards. I wouldn't hold my breath. If yields are low like people are guessing, then nVidia will want to get out as many 680s as they can before using the chips to make 670s and 660Tis. Looking at Newegg all 680 models are sold out.

They can't make 680's or at least enough to meet even a small part of the demand for them. Has to be chip procurement issues. Wouldn't hold my breath for other models unless they decided to short supply across the entire produce line. Patience will be the buzzword for at least the very near term.

Also there are probably firewalls in place such that if they figure out how increase yields for AMD they can't share that with nVidia.
