seems this will cause a price drop on current high end in 8-12 weeks.

It makes sense since Vista is delayed until 2007 and the need for DX10 videocards (R600) then is postponed and they need something to fill the gap.

yep the same place that said that the new new nvida card were going to be 32 pipes and ect.

That's a pretty nice core clock if it turns out to be true

they've had two news pieced on this, maybe the clocks arn't right, but it looks like there will be an 80nm x1950

Exactly. The intent of theinquirer is to report the rumors, not verify them (as no one can verify them). If others don't like to think for themselves and would rather just trust and believe what they read, well, good luck finding such a place.

Seems it will be on the 90nm process but the core will have major redesign this chip is meant combat the G80.

Wow- bigger die and higher clock speed than the 1900's?? Get out your phase change units boys, these are gonna be hot! Maybe water cooling will be standard OEM?

The cool thing would be if they are using GDDR4 memory on these- that may yeild some big fps gains at high res...

Edit- Thought just hit me- the Inq. was wrong about the 80nm shrink sooo......

Edit #2- Bah- 5150 beat me to it while editing.

I think INQ just got ahold of the fake R580+ slides and is now back pedaling. nVidia releasing the G80 in the summer would be pretty useless since DX 10 won't even be available until 2007.
