Default rumor: Nvidia GT-200 (GTX 280) a significant miss on Clock, GFLOPS and Yields

The 260 will be priced at $449 and go up against the ATI 770/4870
costing MUCH less. The 280 will be about 25 per cent faster and quite
likely lose badly to the R700, very badly, but cost more, $600+.


A $150 8800GT plays everything but Crysis pegged right now, and there
isn't much else on the horizon. Whats the point?
