Fermi GF100 to launch by early December
If not in very late November Fermi, Nvidia's GF100 40nm DirectX 11 chip is selling great even though Nvidia still has to officially launch it. Sources confirmed that Nvidia is taking pre-orders like there is no tomorrow, but at this time Nvidia offers no guarantees when the chip will hit the market. Everyone expects shortages due to heavy demand from day one. The original schedule of late November might skip in the first week(s) of December, but from what we learned over the last few days, it was always late November to first days of December. Nvidia ordered much more 40nm wafers for its notebook and desktop entry level chip as well as for Fermi, as Fermi should sell good in the server market for parallel computing, workstation use and, of course, as a computer games graphics card. The server market will be prioritized as Nvidia can make more money on the same chip. Performance wise, once again we can confirm that multiple sources strongly believe that a single core Fermi will end up significantly faster than ATI’s single core Radeon 5870. thats from today justin, your little birdy still telling you jan? |

Awesomesauce. Now, if and when these do come out, when will the 300 series be released? And do we know how much better it will be compared to the GF100? |

WOOT. NVIDIA all the way. Thank goodness for the EVGA upgrade program. I am of course assuming it'll be on the upgrade list.

As much as I love Nvidia, Still sad it's coming out so late, Which makes sense why it'll be faster than ATI's HD5870.which is also why ATI's Next card in 6 months (guessing) will be faster than Nvidias soon to come out.
either way, I can't wait till i grab my next GT300 Line.

But some of us have known for months that they will not launch till March, if the A2 silicon pans out.. If A3 is needed, then May/June
