Nvidia has informed its partners that it won't be accepting more orders for Geforce 8800 Ultra and advised everyone to try to sell them as soon as they can. This is the clear indication that something new is close and from what we know, middle of February is the date.
Nvidia’s replacement for 8800 Ultra is dual G92 based, big and hot but we have every reason to believe that it will end up faster than R680, simply as G92 is faster than a single RV670.
