NVIDIA to skip GeForce 800 series, GeForce GTX 980 and GTX 970 mid-September

[Rock1m1]

Excerpt:

According our credible sources NVIDIA decided to skip GeForce 800 series and move straight to 900. Of course there is a simple explanation why did that happen.

For the past two weeks rumors about mobile GeForce 900M have been circulating around the web. Apparently NVIDIA decided to launch mobile GM204-based parts under 900M series, instead of rumored 800MX. While it makes sense for mobile parts (to differentiate Kepler from Maxwell), it would cause chaos in desktop naming consistency.

Long story short, if NVIDIA didn’t rename 800 series to 900 series, we would have desktop 800 and mobile 900M series in relatively short time.

so many rumors ,aargh it fucking hurts

False news site! Check the web history on that website. It's a blatant ripoff of videocardz.com I blame the OP.

 

Also, the 800M line is already mostly Maxwell. We already have that inconsistency.

irrelevant  to be honest

rumor sais it is a rumor

Skip 300 desktop series and 800 desktop series.... I am pretty sure everyone knows what this means...

[APrettyCoolWalrus]

I think nVidia has more sense than to destroy the names/ numbers of GPUs.

"According our credible sources...."

Does that even sound remotely credible...

[Polyvalent]

No clue, what's it mean?

[Real_PhillBert]

So am I supposed to wait for an 880 or 980? Lol

[Scionyde]

Wait, they're saying it'd be too confusing to have the mobile series be GTX 900M and the desktop be GTX 800? Then how the fuck do you explain the current situation with GTX 800M and GTX 700?

 

Oh man, all the logic.

Gotta read bro, it says "credible" right in there

[TheSLSAMG]

Not listening until it happens. Simple as that.

Good call. But I can't help myself...

Too bad Nvidia enforces NDA very strictly so if it is real whomever leaked the info Nvidia will surely go thermonuclear on their ass, unless it was intentional.

[LukaP]

i really dont care about NVIDIA rumours any more. ill just wait for official info, should be here soon enough anyway, its almost autumn

[Toddwjp]

nvidia are not ones to screw up naming systems anymore

[Hans Christian | Teri]

It's a name, wtf does it matter.

[Commander_Z]

NOOOO, dont do this

half-life 3 ?

[Deletive]

Not this crap. There isn't a need for 900m series right now, it will be 20nm anyways. so it'll last till Gm200 and we all know they wouldn't bother with gm200 for mobile.

They'll probably be a 1644 cuda core mobile version which will performance between a 770 and 780. thats more than enough from Nvidia for awhile. 

[geogga]

What the fuck is going on? I want my 880
