NVIDIA To Launch New GPU At NVISION 08

StokedGamer.com has learned that NVIDIA will launch the 55nm successor to the GeForce GTX 280 at NVISION 08. We previously had our suspicions that the launch would be at NVISION. If you remember in the past NVIDIA has launched other GPUs at GeForce LAN, which is still a part of NVISION although the scope of the event is much broader than just a large LAN party.

This visual computing mega-event will be held in San Jose, California from August 25th-27th.

In a month it will be time to say good bye to these Geforce GTX 280 video cards.

Can you say Step-up or Trade Up?

TheIneffableBob5772d ago

This is just going to be a die shrink. Nothing major and certainly not a big enough of a deal to go through the hassle of stepping- or trading-up with EVGA and BFG, respectively. Lower power consumption, higher clock speeds, and maybe some minor changes to the architecture.

TiKiMaN15772d ago

For NVIDIA's sake, hopefully they will still be the performance champion. Although it really seems lately that ATI has gotten their act together (Radeon 4870 X2). Needless to say, it's great to be a consumer during a price war.

Bolts5772d ago

I would much rather go for the 200 series once the price/perform ratio is settled. The 4870 run hotter than hell making Crossfire a huge pain in the ass. Plus I think Nvidia have more headroom for performance increases than ATI.

diegodon5772d ago

about the heating issue with 4000 series but no has taken the time to do some actual research on it. It's been fixed everyone, get over it.

Tango Gameworks Dev Asks “Not Enough?” Amid Studio Shutdown Despite Multiple Awards

Amid the studio’s shutdown, a Tango Gameworks developer has questioned whether its many awards were not enough for the Xbox management.

I'm sorry but I'm going for cringe *insert madara got betrayed by black zetsu here* but fr tango it's never enough for Microsoft. Microsoft are cannibals imo

TheProfessional35m ago(Edited 33m ago)

Yeah PS hasn't shut down any studios.

Arkane austin made redfall, everything about that was bad regardless of microsft's involvement. Plus prey didn't sell well either.

Tango gameworks shouldn't have been closed though. The others make sense.

MrDead7h ago

You have talent but MS is IP hoarding so only the biggest IP's will survive, a few new ones might slip through but if they don't sell like the big titles like COD or Fallout then bye bye and thanks for the money we'll make from continuing to sell your games.

Hugodastrevas2h ago

This is legitimately heartbreaking, you pour all you got into your craft, you're recognized for it, you're successful... Just to be discarded like leftovers

Hopefully they can move on and continue, whether forming their own studio, or getting a job elsewhere. This dev is exactly right.

I loved ghostwire, such a shame.
