Reviewers have cards as we speak, and have been testing them for the last few days or so. Expect a hard launch within a week or so.
Im sure we will have plenty of sites leaking benchmarks real soon.
No worries thread titles can be changed.
OP, pretty sure incorrect title: "Reviews and prices Monday August 20."
Monday will be announcement day when we will learn the actual release dates. Reviews will only be on release dates.
Any specs on the GT106? Is it likely to be 2060 = 1280 Cores and full chip being 1536 (room for a Ti)?
About the 2060 and 2070........this sucks if true.Any specs on the GT106? Is it likely to be 2060 = 1280 Cores and full chip being 1536 (room for a Ti)?

Some people have relationships with reviewers.Links to any such rumors?
I'm two generations behind and the idea of a card 26% faster than a 1060 at near the price point I paid for my 970 four years ago is not the least bit exciting IMO. That would be about a 50% bump in performance, which is a far cry from the 120% bump in performance the 970 offered at launch over the then four year old 570 that launched at the same price.
The thought of the 70 series potentially going from high end to midrange to low end in seven years is sickening.
I have hard time believing its happening either... and only will when i finally see it tomorrow... but 20 years? Thats some history revisionism out there... the big die has been first to be released up until gtx 500 series... which was released in 2011 and not 20 years ago.
connectors at the back pictured here:

this is a problem for people like me with older monitors. my GTX1080 still has a DVI connector, which i must use because my Samsung monitor does not do 120Hz over HDMI, only over DVI.
i don't plan on upgrading for a few more years (or generations) but if i would, then i'd have to replace my monitor or start messing with adapters.
Completely false. Check again.you sir are confused... Big die first has never happened since Tesla 1.0 generation.
The GF110 released as the GTX580 in Nov of 2010, very easily could have simply been the GTX480ti... it wasnt anything new... Yes, the gtx 500 was the big die... but it wasnt first...
Did you forget that Fermi had been around for a whole rounds of cards before that? GF100 As the GTX480, preceeded it by 9 months earlier in March of 2010.
What happened with the GTX 500 series is exactly the same marketing gimmick I am describing, that i believe is going to be repeated for the third time... and you fell for it...
A gimmick that i might add which was a repeat of the 8800GTX G80 vs 9800GTX G92 debacle...
the LAST time a big die product was released as the first product in a architecture generation was 2004 with the Geforce 6800 Ultra being launched first...
Can't you just use a DVI to display port adaptor or cable - they're not expensive.
DP to Dual Link DVI adapters required for high refresh are $100 USD +. Single link adapters are cheap but single link DVI maxes at 1920x1200@60hz.
Completely false. Check again.
Fermi? Yes [March 2010]Tesla? Nope
Fermi? Nope
Kepler? Nope
Maxwell? Nope
Pascal? Nope
so...when was it?

I agree. Some can argue that Raja had nothing to work with at AMD and his gpu group was gutted. Perhaps he and Jim Keller at Intel can create some new magic but it will take time.This is what happens when there is no competition. We can only hope Raja at intel can actually deliver which is somewhat doubtful given his track record at AMD (it went downhill from the moment he joined...) and intels own track record with GPUs.
I'm simply avoiding the market right now as this was to be expected and hence the real winners are people with 1080p displays as there is little need to upgrade anyway. and you save even more by only buying old games on steam sales.
