Straight from NVIDIA's CEO:
QUOTE (Jen-Hsun Huang) “Next year it is going to be an interesting first quarter because, in fact, we will need more wafers than ever in Q1. The reason for that is because – and I mean more 40nm wafers than ever in Q1 –we are […] fully ramping Fermi for three different product lines: GeForce, Quadro and Tesla,” And here's another somewhat interesting bit: QUOTE (Jen-Hsun Huang) “We will be fully ramping MCP89. We will be fully ramping Tegra. Not to mention the 40nm products that we currently have that are fully ramped up, and so I am expecting Q1 to be a pretty exciting quarter for us because we just have so many new products,” Full article That pretty much seals it, we won't see Fermi hardware this year and Q1 extends up to March... Hopefully for them, TSMC fixes their major yield issues because ramping up a 3 billion transistor GPU, a chipset and Tegra will be challenging! On another note: NVIDIA releases cartoons to fight Intel!

I expect to see the card long before march since we are leaving in a few weeks for testing of the cards.

I wouldn't be suprised if they launch at CES thats usually when everyone launches new stuff.

I'm wondering if it'll be a hard launch, but with very limited availability like ATI with the HD5000's -------------------- Some people are like slinkies - not really good for anything but they bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

The best way for Nvidia, if they manage to get enough working chips from TSMC, is to make what ATi did (limited availability).
The prices of the GT300 will remain prohibitive till the new 28nm process starts, as apparently TSMC invest more efforts into the transition as into the fixing the completely gone-bad 40nm process. Anyway, I'm not going for a new GPU till Fermi comes out. Apparently only Intel has a "state of art" production level. This post has been edited by Digitalis: Nov 7 2009, 04:25 AM |
