Things are shaping up although it's just rumors and bits of info. So NV thought AMD would have better performance for the 7970, no suprise here I think most of us feel this way, except for AMD hardcore fans who try to justify in any possible way the reason to spend an unprecedented (for AMD products as bang/buck champs) 550$ for a card.
This explains what's going on with Kepler and the rumors for the first launch of the GK104. It seems that for NV it would be enough to get out this mid-high range chip to counter the high-end offerings from AMD. That is why rumor is that cards based on this chip will be out sooner than expected. I'm convinced now that nobody really knows the specs of this card as NV is probably busy to tweak it in order to match/surpass the 7900 series. Time will tell.
