Leading interwebz rumour proprietor, Fudzilla, claims to have come across some “interesting information” regarding Nvidia’s response to AMD’s upcoming high-end graphics card range; the HD 6900 series.
Apparently the company plans to launch the GTX 580, currently codenamed GF110, later this month, most probably before the HD 6900 series comes to market.
The new GPU is purported to come stuffed with 512 improved cores, and may well become the fastest GPU on the market. Not much is known about AMD’s 6970, however, which will be vying for that title.
The 580GTX will supposedly retail for US$500 (±R3500), but this will be dependent on the pricing and performance offered by the competition.
The cards are said to already be in production.
