Well, I'm sure most of us were excited when we read about the new Fermi architecture Nvidia unveiled. Unfortunately, it looks like that is still while away. EVGA and Nvidia are announcing the next cards at a Halloween party in California.

That's disappointing. Hopefully they are still great cards, but I have a feeling they'll be taking a back seat to ATI for a while.

This doesnt confirm fermi will be awhile away. This is just a new graphics card in the interim that will be based around increasing physx. Over at the evga chat/forums theres alot of speculation as to what it may be, and alot of us are thinking perhaps a G92 core to run physx on a GTX285 gpu or such. Fermi is still slated to come out (relatively) soon afaik.

Dont skimp on a power supply,if it fails, it usually takes out other components alongside it.
New? Dont forget to read the rules. Heatware
P.M. If interested in Shin Etsu X23-7783D

It will be interesting to see what this card is...I saw on another forum it is just a dual GPU card using technology already on the market. That is what people are speculating anyway.

Could just be something that Nvidia is releasing just to make a voice in the graphics market. ATI is starting to clean house and get many loyal consumers. Nvidia has to do something quick...If they don't release something by Christmas...I bet they will loose loyal customers to ATI!
