These articles were posted this morning (May 7th).

Now everyone can debate who's going to be faster, nVidia or ATI?
I'm really waiting for the benchmarking results to come out... Check out the following post. You can tell they're gearing up for the benchmarking very soon:

After I see the benchmarking results, I can finally make a decision and get myself the graphics card I really want and that can also handle upcoming games like Crysis in max settings. Also after the ATI release, all the nVidia cards might start dropping in price since their DX10 monopoly will be no more. So if you bought a high-end nVidia card last week, you might want to cash in on a 30-day return policy if you can because you'll be kicking yourself in the wahzoo if you see that same card you bought cost 20-30% less in about a month. That's why I cancelled my order before it shipped. Might get lucky...

I'm drooling!:D

Yah, I was trying to figure out that 65nm issue. Is a smaller number better or worse? Because the 8800 GTX is running 90nm. I just couldn't understand why ATI would release a slower card. Fill me in so I become video card educated. :)
