So I've been reading around and realized the next year of NVIDIA GPU launches was going to be a little more complicated than what I thought.
I'm sitting on an older GTX 480, but I want to hit the next sweet spot since I'll hold onto the next GPU I buy for another five years. I'll also hold out until the first 20nm GPU as I don't want a repeat of the 480 -> 580 switch all over again. Basically, NVIDIA launched the GTX 480 and a mere 8 months later launched a die-shrunk 580 from it.
Oct/Nov is 880 on 28nm
Titan II is early 2015? Will it be 28 or 20nm?
20nm 980 or 880 Ti in late 2015? 😕
Anther thing... If the Titan II really is ~600mm^2 then it's probably 28nm... but what will NVIDA do once 20nm rolls around? If a die-shrunk 880 becomes the 980 GTX, then I guess the die-shrunk Titan II would turn into a 980 Ti? Basically what happened with the 480 / 580 and the Titan / 780 Ti all over again if so...
