Demand for AMD R600 and Nvidia G80 higher than expected
http://www.neoseeker.com/news/story/7044/
Kevin Spiess - Thursday, August 23rd, 2007 | 11:48AM (PST) Everybody and their dogs are buying new video cards NVIDIA and AMD must be pleased: it seems than demand is outstripping supply for the current generational crop of video cards. The silicon-saavy, transistor-crafting, determined denziens of Taiwain Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) are reportedly working hard to fill boxes full of R600's and G80's. This year, demand for these cards was apparently greater than expected. The good news is that reserve stocks of these lovely cards can be brought out of storage to be doled out to partners, in time for the Christmas crush -- so no one should end up empty-handed. A source also relates that this same factoring is busy crafting the upcoming G92 (GeForce 9800) and G98 (GeForce 9600) for release in the last quarter of this year. Previous reports stated that the G92 was coming this year, but that the G98 wasn't expected until Spring -- but maybe things have changed? Only time -- and close to a billion transistors of GPU performance -- will tell. |
