Oh noez!
If that info is true, 256bit for the GDDR5? I think Nvidia is playing "upping midrange cards to top tier" game again...

if the info is correct... then top tier is titan and the 880ti just get use to getting 204 versions from now on... 3200 cuda cores(780 originally was 2304) - higher clock - lower power - 20% increase in performance by the look of it at least 25-30% increase in cuda cores 5-10% on clocks and ram - 20% increase in Tflops - 10% power drop(usage) what gets me is the line [<font]According to a source has come also the first chip that will be equipped with ARM core. [<font]GM204 is said to have to make do with one, GM210 has planned three ARM cores. [<font]Nothing more has not communicated to us the source, but the important date is said to be in July this year ------------------ also to note latest Nvidia driver versions have codenames of some Maxwell GPUs: GM107, GM108, GM200, GM204 and GM206.

I don´t think that Nvidia will include an arm core in a 256bit card. If you are correct and the same selling tactics will be applied, I think that the arm cores will be in the Ti/Titan series but I doubt we will see this again in the 800 series. A 256bit card seems to me more "gamer" oriented, not enthusiast oriented like the chip on the 780 and up models.
If that information is correct, it seems that the 800 series is like the 600 series, pushing the GTX680 in first place, tunning it and calling GTX770 (GTX880 -> GTX970) in the next round, making the high end GPU versions of the compute world in the same generation. I don't know what to believe with the article, lol.
Only my two cents.

Well, this is certainly discouraging.

After Kelper, and this last money grab from both AMD and Nvidia, prob be six months to a year before I even start looking for a newer GPU. What a mess, on both parties....
I know ya speak Old School "GL" !
+1
I know right? Moore's law was put into PARK lol When I was younger I would upgrade every gen. Now life circumstances demand it be different, but if it were this small of a difference between gens back then I think I would have skipped a gen or two. I remember when the next gen would be 35% faster etc. Now you get 8% and they market it like you need to have it or your computer will turn to dust lol
its because the world has changed as far as games go, the thing is back in 2000, you bought your Geforce 256, then the actual DX7 games appeared and crippled the card, by 2002 and the Geforce 3, it was to slow to game above minimum and 800x600, this kept happening in truth, the 6800 Ultra became a low end card by the end of 2006, but since the 8800GTX came out, its been a diffrent ball game entirely, low end cards are no where close to even the old 8800GTX in preformance and this has been crippling on gaming in general. If you think about it they have to make games for the lowest common denominator reasonably, excluding crytek of course lol. That means current games need to run on at least a GT 240/GT440, and these cards are actully slower than a card from 2006 in raw performance, and this in turn holds back games stressing the hardware. Remember back when the Geforce2 MX could topple a Geforce 256, or a Geforce 2 Ti could topple the Geforce 2 GTS, a Geforce 4 MX 440 could take out a Geforce 3 Ti 200 in alot of games, the FX 5200 was an oddity, but then the 6200 toppled the FX 5900, the 7300GT was the start of the strange years and it got stranger, with low end cards attempting to beat the previous low end by 5-6% instead of by 30-40% per generation, and when you consider the diffrences between say a 7300GT and a 7900GTX you had a bad time, the 8500GT was at best 5% faster than the 7300GT, the 9500GT was maybe 10% faster than the 8500GT, the G 220, was at best 1-2% faster than 9500GT, a GT430 was 5-7% faster than a G220 and so on and so fourth.
