NVIDIA flushing old stock to make room for Kepler

Posted on Sunday, November 06 2011 @ 22:12 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck
KitGuru reports NVIDIA is clearing out its stock to prepare for the launch of Kepler.
Right now, we’re seeing a lot of traffic in the channel about nVidia price cuts – across the board.

Sure, the market has been tough/quiet, but this is a little more active than normal.

The reason is simple. Kepler.

nVidia believes that it has the new architecture ready, and has a strong suspicion that AMD won’t be ready with the re-vamped 7000 series until after Christmas, so maybe the Jen Hsun crew wants to push hard for a place in your Xmas stockings this December.

The most likely situation, would be for nVidia to (a) push out the world’s fastest graphic card and (b) use the promise of ‘something more from nVidia, but it is not here just yet’ to try and dissuade people from buying Radeons.
