Default Nvidia having problems with its upcoming flagship NV55 / G92 / GeForce 9800 GPU

Nvidia G92 and G98 have problems

By Charlie Demerjian: Thursday 16 August 2007, 14:40

Nvidia has got G92 and G98 silicon back, end of good news.
The bad news? Well, all of the rest of it.

At the Displayport plugfest a couple of weeks ago, what may have been
the grand debut of G92 and G98 was not to be.

Nvidia abruptly left the festivities after only a day, instead of the
full two, some sources said this was because things were not going
'smoothly'.

granted it's just a rumor, but I don't recall rumors of Nvidia having
any major problems with a new GPU since the days of NV30 / GeForce
FX.

IF true, hopefully AMD-ATI will capitalize on any stumble by Nvidia.
