Nvidia in Crisis

Well from reading around, Fermi is the name for the supercomputer card, and Geforce will get the Geforce version of it. There's a few places are now saying the DX11 gaming cards will be the first released.

The first real information about Fermi based Tesla cards is out :: TweakTown
NVIDIA outs Fermi-based Tesla cards | Electronista

They both seem pretty positive.

And for the 4-way SLI, I think it'll be more to just get inline with ATI's 4-way crossfire.

cheers for the links......

NVIDIA doesn't plan to ship the new Tesla range until spring of next year but already prices the C20-series cards at $2,499 and $3,999 each, while the S20 units cost $12,995 and and $18,995 respectively. Operating system support hasn't been detailed at this early stage.

well...... now i feel ill

the Geforce equivalent is gonna cost....BIG TIME

Well that's something we'll have to wait for, the Tesla cards have always cost an arm and a leg. The Tesla 10 series are still £1,125.

I just hope some genuine news comes soon.

some apparent Good news folks.....

''Nvidia remains "committed" to gaming industry''

Gaming remains our bread and butter focus area. However, there are other opportunities for us to explore as the company grows, such as the HPC sector," explained Del Rizzo.

"Look, I understand that some people might be feeling anxious because we haven't published detailed information about Fermi-based Geforce cards," said Del Rizzo. "But, I can assure you that data is forthcoming. The wait will be well worth it, especially when people understand what products based on Fermi are capable of."

That sounds very good

Sounds like to me that they are buying their time...

Look at their track record...NVIDIA is always the first to boast about some new Super-GPU they have created, why the silence this time???
