Damn, means new mobo and gfx if u want to stay up to date then unless u got an X38 .. damn. Ive only just bought a new computer too.
It will still work in a non 2.0 and i doubt youll see a huge improvement from 1.1 to 2.0.
Bascially refresh on the G80 range. Means the 9800's won't be coming anytime soon.
The new GTX has absoloutely nothing that would make me sell my current GTX for one.![]()

And quite right too. You would be mad. The new one might overclock slightly more so you might get 1 to 5% gain max so who is going to take a hit on selling their 8800GTX to get the new one for that gain? With the money lost in swapping, you might as well bought the Ultra in the first place.
.....
Apart from the Die shrink to 65nm and possibly outclocking your current GTX.![]()
also is it even confirmed the new GTX is 65nm?I don't clock my GPU's so mehalso is it even confirmed the new GTX is 65nm?
As far as I know.
Thing is this new release will destroy current GTX pricing just like the B3 quads.
No one will want them I wouldn't of thought.
