GK104-Based Products Arriving March 23
Expreview cited sources in the AIC (add-in card) vendors in pinning the launch of GeForce Kepler 104 (GK104) based products to March 23. The products launched are expected to be NVIDIA's first in its next-generation. Some label the top part based on GK104 as "GeForce GTX 670 Ti", while others call it "GeForce GTX 680". A March 23 launch explains reports of hectic activity in the green camp starting this week. NVIDIA typically enters NDAs with its partners over a wide time range, probably this one extends to April (since the launch is now reported to be towards late-March), which led some to believe Kepler was "delayed" to April. NVIDIA recently posted on its Facebook wall that people will be rewarded for their patience with an "unbeatable" product.

Dont know what going on. Maybe W1zz can tell us something.
I have to have 60fps minimum!
* I just checked Nvidia control panel and i am at "1950x1080 (@1080p)", still don't know what it is.
A: Outpaces the 7970 and
B: Gets releases sooner rather than later
it won't matter if it is faster or not because people want their hardware now and these people are already running 7970s. AMD has their money from 7970s sales and is most likely already working on the 8970, the real question is, will the 8970 out pace Kepler, and can nVidia release a solution to counter it in time before AMD sells a ton of GPUs like what happened with the 7970. Marketing wise, AMD just waltzed over nVidia and until Kepler comes out, will continue to do so.
