NVIDIA Fermi to hit retail stores in January 2010?

While HardOCP predicted yesterday that Fermi may not arrive until late March 2010, but today FUD Zilla heard from multiple sources that NVIDIA promised to ship Fermi in January 2010.
We are talking about GF100 Fermi, the GPU that is expected to defeat ATIs Radeon HD 5000-series offerings. To make matters more clear, January is the time when you can hope to buy a high-end Geforce desktop graphics card based on Fermi.

Nvidia Fermi-based cards in the enthusiast market have been pushed from a late November launch to a January launch mainly due the fact that the A2 silicon chip revision was not good enough for volume production, so A3 is about to ship to partners soon. With this in mind and if all goes well, Geforce graphics cards based on Fermi architecture are expected to ship in January.
