NVIDIA GF104 to be next GeForce 8800 GT?

Posted on Saturday, April 10 2010 @ 3:01 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

FUD Zilla claims NVIDIA's upcoming GF104 GPU may be the next "GeForce 8800 GT". This chip is a new mainstream part that will be launched this summer.

The chip is much smaller than recently launched Fermi-based Geforce GTX 480 and 470 and our sources expect that this product might be the next “8800 GT”.

Let me remind you, this was probably the best selling card in sub $200 market that Nvidia later renamed to 9800GT and most recently to GTS 250. We probably missed a few internal rebrands, as this was Nvidia’s policy for a long time.

Nvidia bring forth the mobile version please. The top end laptop chip shouldn't be a 5870...
