    Nvidia to push back against ATI 7970 price cut.

    Anyone see that nvidia have released a teaser picture that says "it's coming..."

    What's coming, anyone care to speculate?

    I think it's the 670. There is no need for faster graphics card, which only a few can afford.

    Re: Nvidia to push back against ATI 7970 price cut.

    I hope it's a 670 or 660 because I can't imagine many people who can afford 400+ quid for a single graphics card. Granted, there are a few mad men out there...

    it doesn't matter whether lot's of people can afford it....

    it'll be benchmarked, reviewed and gain huge publicity, and the halo effect will help sell lower cards from their stable.

    Still no noise about the sub £200 Kepler cards.
