No GeForce 7 in 2005
http://www.techspot.com/story16735.html
No GeForce 7 in 2005? NVIDIA remains extremely quiet about its forthcoming products, but its likely that they will not release a new graphics architecture earlier than in late 2005. GeForce 6 technology will carry the company throughout 2005. "In terms of the core discreet desktop graphics (58% of revenue) franchise, NVIDIA will not release a new architecture until the end of 2005. This could allow ATI Technologies a window of superior performance if its gets its R520 products out on time (mid-2005). Overall, we expect little movement in desktop discreet market share in 2005 between NVIDIA and ATI Technologies." - Research and investment firm Goldman Sachs. It is known that the company is readying its code-named NV47 visual processing unit, a massively revamped GeForce 6 architecture with 24 pixel pipelines. Expected sometime in spring 2005, NV47 is (of course) still GeForce 6 architecture. How NV47 will compare with ATI's R520 product is currently unknown. However, NVIDIA remains positive about 2005. |

(trim) It hardly matters, the hardware industry is so far out in front of the software at the moment that there is no point in even buying the current top of the line graphics cards, let alone the next one. As for this giving ATI a chance to get ahead? pfft, they are already so far behind that nvidia could shut down operations for 2 years and ATI still wouldn't catch up. -- DalienX |

With SLI load-sharing available and proven and many SLI-motherboards waiting in the wings, no need for a new nVidia architecture. More important to process-shrink the current GF6800 family for higher-yield (lower-cost), lower power and/or faster speed.

John Lewis John, what's your take on the power consumption level with the SLI-mode? |
