X-bit Labs contacted NVIDIA and got to hear that the rumor is unfounded. Additionally, there are no reports from reviewers nor users that can verify the rumor.
Nvidia Corp. on Monday denied plans to recall GeForce GTX products based on the GK104 graphics processing units due to rumoured eventual performance degradation. The company claims that the rumours are incorrect and the graphics products work fine.
"There is no truth to this," said Bryan Del Rizzo, a spokesman for Nvidia.
