HEY GIBBO...GTX 690 when is it due?
- Thread starter Neo-Geo
- Start date
Soldato
+100000!
Why there so many deleted posts in this thread
Long argument which took the thread incredibly off topic
it's not just me that sais the 680 is too expensive is it, plus it's not me that said the 690 will cost 600 quid, it's another poster above.....get your facts right
Soldato
Reputable source? Or are you just guessing and pretending like you know?
Soldato
You've been telling us the 690 will cost £600
We say to you what we say to everyone who thinks the 680 is too expensive:

The 680 is not a rip off.
Seriously, if you can't afford a card, don't moan about the fact. Buy the card you can afford.
And stop bloody whining...

Only its not that simple is it. Many people like me who have no mid-range upgrade path from a 470\5870\5850 etc for £200-£250 because Nvidia decided what was gonna be their 670 at around £250(wishful thinking) would now be there 680 and Charge £430. No worthwhile upgrade for us now where the 670 would have been a belter. For me Nvidia would have sold far more 670 at around £250 than they will 680 at £430 and could easily have made the same money and made a lot of loyal fans very happy, instead, well we know what they did. I am not happy, I have never had to wait so long for an upgrade ever before and I reckon a lot of people are in the same boat. This must be reflected in graphics card sales I would imagine.

Haven you got a proven source that the 680 was meant to be the 670?
They will be releasing the 670 soon...
Soldato
Yeah the 660's and 670's will follow. AMD followed a similar release pattern.

Thundy has warned many of you here in a polite manner to behave and keep on topic. I however shall get straight to the point and suspend if it carries on.
The OP has asked a question. Please answer it or do not post at all. You want to argue about future releases then jump in the Kepler thread or AMD equivalent and do it there as this is not the place.
To answer the OPs question, a dual GPU nvidia card is coming. What it is called, costs and when it will be released Gibbo won't be able to answer due to NDAs.
If you require any potential info for speculation on the question originally asked then hit google, theres some good estimates out there with pretty solid documentation of new lines appearing at X date. Just remember, if a price is $500 as an example, you must remember that this price is distribution cost. Add to this mark up and VAT and your looking at closer to £475inc.
So if you've seen a price, apply the same percentage difference between currencies as I have above and you will have a fair idea.

Two people saying the same unsubstantiated rumour doesn't make it correct.

There are a few members here who constantly require post removals or short holidays, from what I can see you haven't broken any rules so theres no need to stray away. Its just a shame that a small minority at times find themselves spoiling it for the majority
They know who they are though.
