216 stream processors apparently, as opposed to 192 on our current one. Nvidia are at it again I see. Pretty nice though, although I wonder if it'll be a limited-time edition like the 112 SP G80 GTS that was about for a while or a fully fledged replacement? Only time will tell, hopefully the price goes down, not up.
 
ffs people wil be quite angry just bought the card and they releasing a new one i see no point as it is not even 55 nm still 4870 faster
 
There is only a gnat's nadger either way between the 4870 and current GTX260 in overall performance terms. This increase (albeit small) will probably give NVidia a noticeable advantage and increase sales. ATI must be outselling NVidia 4:! at the moment so they had to do something quick.

:p


Really the GTX260 should have been the GT260 then this new rev could be the GTS260. Going with GTX off the bat leaves them nowhere to go with silly names.


We should have an OcUK raffle.

Famous computer store sales guy: "GTX260+ has 24 more shaders, will be 700% better and it will cost you £500."
