Apparently it is
GTX 295 is basicly 'GTX 280 GX2' that is, two GTX 280s crammed
together on a single board.
It's got
480 SP (2x 240 SP)
1,792 MB GDDR3
should be launching at CES in January.
Old news. Actually 2 face-to-face sandwiched boards each containing
the 55nm shrink of the GT200 GPU. No functional upgrade of the
original GT200. No doubt a market-position placeholder awaiting
nVidia's next-gen performance-equivalent single-chip GPU solution,
presumably Dx11 compatible. GTX 295 is distinctly not a future-proof
purchase.
What would be a future proof purchase? Or at least one for any significant
length of time nowadays. I doubt there are any.
