Looks like Nvidia is pulling out the big guns for PhysX

I don't want to be a jerk but cannot help it, optimization not optimisation... (sorry but math major )

BTW thanks for the news about 600 specs however looks way too optimistic, I am a little pessimistic about this

They seem rather "realistic" and Looks like the same situation like the 500 series vs HD6000 series.

My computer broke down and this is probably the worst timing imaginable... I really want to wait for the new Ivy Bridge/GPU updates.

Do you think when the new hardware comes out, the price will be greater than the current models, or will it just replace the current models without an increase in price?

Hmm, well I was thinking the 680M would have 512 sp, so the lineup could possibly be:

680M = GTX 660 - 512sp, 256-bit
675M = GTX 650 Ti - 448sp, 224-bit
670M = GTX 650 - 256sp, 192-bit
660M = GTX 640 - 192sp, 128-bit

Man, the 670M and 660M would be looking so disappointing.

670M definitely wouldn't be toasting the 580M, unless Kepler has super shaders.

I don't know, this seems pretty fishy.

Ideally, I'd like to see the GTX 680M come from the 660 Ti (but make it 256-bit), so each GPU could be moved up one notch, meaning the 670M would come from the GTX 650 instead.

Definitely more expensive than what's out now, depending on the manufacturer.

512sp would be amazing for a tdp limit of 100W.

i doubt itll happen. and all the charts suggest that GTX 680/675 have 256-bit memory interface unless nvidia changes that last second.

1.75 Gb already makes it bs .

Why? 256MBx7/32bitx7 is correct with the specs shown

@Kevin: You really think that the GTX 660M will be like GTX 640? Isn`t the GTX 650 more plausable? 192 bit like the 560M and 256 cores instead of 192? That would have been amazing It is rumored that the cores will be more effective than Fermi too, so keep that in mind.

[Kevin]

Yes, it being the GTX 650 makes much more sense, from technical and PR perspectives.

[Devenox]

this is so fake...
even if rough specs (memory width, amount VRAM, shaders) were right, than it's impossable that final CLOCKS of core and memory would already be known this far before a release. Even nvidia doesnt know the final clocks yet, nor price.

Also 224bit is VERY unlikely, always been 64bit modules a card is build with.

Nvidia pr team is working real hard
