Any ideas when we will be seeing a DX11 product from NVidia? I am about to go abck to ATI for the first time since my 9800XT. I have no brand loyalty, whoever is king at the time is what I go with.
 
ETA............unknown, speculation abounds.:eek:

I'll take two when they arrive.
 
It'll be before Battlefield Bad Company 2 is released....that's all I know...

EFT hehe. Just kidding, but, most rumors seem to show very slow production, troubles shrinking die size, troubles creating a large number of working prototype cards/engineering samples, questionable performance in games due to a low single point floating decimal calculations per second but high double floating point calculations which mostly is useable in GPGPU calculations.

For a while, hopeful nVidia supporters were assuming nVidia would HAVE to have the card out my christmas as what company would want to lose out on christmas sales spikes? Unfortunately, nVidia has offically said in press releases that the card is due out Q1 2010. So at the earliest Janurary but most sources are pointing to between February and March. Honestly, if it was January, you'd think they'd tote it as January to maybe saw a few people to hold off on buying ATI cards to see what nVidia has in store. By saying Q1, you leave the possibility of January even if January is no where near a possibility. Clever eh?

That's my two cents anyways.

You are reading into that WAAAAY too much. Companies regularly just say what quarter they expect, rarely what month. Saying Q1 2010 is normal, not an ingenious marketing ploy.
