I just read that they're shooting for a January 2010 release on the 300 series. But we all know how these dates can change.

after the 300's come out maybe.... maybe not...

Guess you missed it, there is one out now,

[Rumour] Nvidia G310 spotted, just a renamed G210 - XtremeSystems Forums

Nvidia up to their old renaming tricks again, just hope no one looking at getting a HP computer,

NVIDIA GeForce 310 DP PCIe x16 Graphics Card (VG885AA) specifications - HP Small & Medium Business products

opts for one of these POS thinking that it is a good card.
if its in a hp... it can't be all that good...

sad thing is it is nothing more than one of these,

Newegg.com - Computer Hardware,Video Cards & Video Devices,Desktop Graphics / Video Cards,GeForce G/GT series,GeForce 210

Exact same specs, just with the name changed to G310. Just means that Nvidia actually managed to get a 300 series card out before the end of the year. :p

Be interesting to see how long before we see people showing up here that bought one and wondering why their games won't play.

Yeah and with the true release of the g300 cards in a month or so, I wouldn't even buy a new card now. I'm thinking of getting one, but.... i'm not getting anything until my 8800GT on the "low" end of the spectrum, right now it's still a mid range card lolz. Kinda sad because it's almost an exact copy of the 9800GT =( sucks for the people who bought those LOLZ

What is it with GT300? I'm getting a 5770 and that will be enough. Why would I wait another couple of months for NVIDIA?
