Default Release dates and stats for 9900gtx

Does anyone have a confirmed release date or performance stats for the 9900gtx?

1 gig & 512 bit memory in a single, not like 512 @256 bit times 2 like the GX2...sounds like an absolute beast. I can't wait!

From what I understand, it's going to be a dualcore graphics card. Just the two GPU's in one idea like two cores only then different...

Now lets hope it uses the 1Gb of memory even though it has 512bit interface.

Thats my only concern. Take the 8800gtx for example. 756mb at 384bit bandwidth. I hope the 9900gtx will be 1 gig straight at 512 and not 512mb and 256bit doubled up. Because then, it would just be a 9800gx2, which I am not found of at all. 512 bit bandwidth straight would absolutely scream.

My main gripe about the 9800gx2 is that it's false advertising that it's 512 bit memory. It isn't, it's 256 x2 which might as well be an 8800gts. This is why I liked the 8800gtx so much. The memory bandwidth was amazing at 384 bit. I really hope this new card is a true 512 bit.
