[techpowerup] gk104 =/= 660.. try adding 10 and ti to that..

[Imouto]

I guess:

GT(X) 6(<70) = GK 104
GTX 670 and Ti = gimped GK 104
GTX 680 = full OC/late GK 104
GTX 690 = Dual GK 104

GTX 7XX = GK 110

To the OP: a much decent thread on the same news posted here:

Keep the fork.

I guess its a good thing that I don't really need to upgrade. I am certainly not going to pay 350 bucks or more for a 20% upgrade over a last gen card that I paid much less than for.

If the 670ti does perform better than a 7950 or even equal, there's no way it will be below $400, more likely $450+. If we're taking bets, put me down for $499.

Woof, if it's $499 - Groove is going to shove crow down so many people's throats. haha.

how would that make any sense? $499 for card that barely beats the gtx580 which can already be had for cheaper? no way in hell is that going to happen. it think will certainly be overpriced for a gtx570 replacement but it wont be as bad as $499.

Hell, if it performs 10% better than the 8800 Ultra then it must be priced at at least $950~.

You sure this isn't just nvidia's typical pr people?

Either way it still seems nvidia is going to be very late with the 'real' kepler? BTW, is the 660/670 or whatever it is supposed to be fermi based or a hybrid or the actual kepler architecture?

Put me down for a little bit better than 7950 performance at stock (with the 7950 having better OC potential) for > $400. AMD will counter (eventually) by dropping prices on the 7950/7970 by $50.

Everyone will claim victory.

The End.

I don't care if it's called a 601 ti golden rabbit whisker edition.

The marketing guys of both brands call cards whatever they think will sell more cards. Who cares what it's called, lets see how it stacks up in performance.

The only things we know is that the architecture is different enough that we can't tell anything about it's performance from seeing specs. VLIW --> GCN we could at least speculate on IPC improvements from the compute engine adding more efficient scheduling and such. With Kepler there's pretty much nothing to speculate about, so it's just plain wait until we see something real.
Boring.

Got to love it when nvidia's possible high prices are being put on AMD

It's really both nVidia and AMD -- but each player is very important -- when AMD decided to go extreme sweet spot pricing with the HD 4870 and HD 4850; it disrupted everything and redefined pricing to such levels it shook the foundations at nVidia.

Now, the polar opposite of raising MSRP pricing -- what AMD does reflects what nVidia may do -- or what nVidia does may reflect what AMD does. So, yes, with AMD raising prices could translate into nVidia raising the premium bar as well.
