Any new Nvidia chipsets coming???

Hi
I'm thinking about doing an upgrade in a few months and I'm just wondering have Nvidia have got any new chipsets coming out to compete with the new Intel P35 and upcoming X38? It seems a while since they released the 650 and 680i.
It would be nice to see Intel with a little competition.

They're expected to release 780i for the Penryns and the new generation of nVidia graphic cards.

Have you any time frame on when they are expected to release them? Are we looking at Xmas time or later?

Any time from November to February has been mentioned.

It probably depends on whether the new cards make it out before Xmas, and whether they want to have the new chipset on the market at the same time, just as 680i appeared at the same time as the 8800's did (tho 680i was rushed to market a little too early just to make the 8800 release date).
