GeForce GTX 660 Ti expected by mid-August

VideoCardz heard rumors that NVIDIA plans to introduce its GeForce GTX 660 Ti graphics card in the third week of August, which is between August 13th and 19th. This new card is expected to cost $229, it reportedly has 1152 or 1344 CUDA cores, 192-bit memory bus and 1.5GB of GDDR5 memory. The PCB will be pretty short and the card will require just a single 6-pin power connector.

Probably the most anticipated model from Kepler based GeForce 600 series will be launched on August 16th (or 14th). So far almost all high-end models were released on Thursdays, so this leaves August 16th as a possible date. This also proves all the rumors that were floating around the web about NVIDIA clearing the stocks with GTX 570, which is getting cheaper as we speak. AMD has also announced that starting from today, all the Radeon HD 7000 models are now available for lower prices as well. On the top of that, one thing is quite obvious, if NVIDIA would move the release date any further, there won’t be many customers waiting for this card anymore.
