GeForce 600 Roadmap Partially Exposed, GTX 670 Ti Coming in May

Andrew Gibbson, a member of Overclockers.co.uk, has posted a newest roadmap of NVIDIA graphics cards. NVIDIA is preparing GTX 670 as a replacement to GTX 580 cards. GTX 660 Ti and GTX 660 will be released later this year.

NVIDIA has released this month their flagship graphics card – GeForce GTX 680, based on GK104 core with 2GB memory. There is also a new variant with 4GB memory coming in April.

GeForce GTX 670 Ti and GTX 670, which were pictured a month ago, were not dropped but delayed until May. These cards will replace GTX 580 (by GTX 670 Ti) and 570 (by GTX 670). GeForce GTX 670 Ti should be available for £320 – €380 – $400 (estimated), card originally intended to compete with Radeon HD 7950. GeForce GTX 670 which has a slightly better performance than GTX 570 should be available for £240 – €290 – $300.

Mid-range graphics cards like GeForce GTX 660 Ti and GTX 660 will be released later in the year. No detailed information is available at the moment.

Low-end graphics cards GT 620 and GTX 650 will be based on previous generation, small refresh with slightly rised clocks.

Lastly, Andrew mentions the fastest cards from GeForce 600 Series. GeForce GTX 680 4GB will be available next month with a price tag from £500 – €600 – $550. The first card based on dual-gpu will likely be named GeForce GTX 690, although no price and release date was given.

Here is the full list with estimated prices:

    what the hell is with this pricing for GTX 680 4GB? Is it a error? 600 Euro – 550$? Shouldn’t it be 550 Euro and 600$?

    probably, unless somehow america just came out of debt and europe went in lmao

  • BestJinjo

    European pricing is rarely a direct translation into US dollars. I think the $550 USD price is reasonable vs. the $499 USD price for the 2GB version; hence the estimate.

    The upsetting part is that GK110 won’t be launched until October-December. :(

    how many CUDA cores? is this better than the ATI 7950 3gb OC from Windforce (with 3 72mm fans)

  • BestJinjo

    Right now 7950 is already irrelevant at $450 since it’s 30% slower than a GTX680. HD7870 is a better card for the price than 7950. If you are going to buy a  7950, might as well spend a bit more and get a much faster 680.

    Latest rumor that MS will only release the next Xbox “Lite” version in 2013 and the “real” next Xbox won’t be out until 2014-2015. Here are are with 15x the graphics power maximizing console ports. The desire to upgrade is now more of a hobby or to play with new hardware rather than performance related for most people.

    Just snagged a PNY GTX 680, lol now I’m sending it back before even opening it.  Going to just get a 4gig GXT 680 when they come out, then wait for the GK110, and Ivy Bridge-e for my next build!

  • Grats

    I hope to see a card early-mid april.. upsetting to see the 680 sold out everywhere, I was planning on grabbing a new card to ditch my horrible one I have right now as a spot filler

    2 months more (or greater since they have so little stock, based on how GTX 680 sold out) until we see some mid range action.. You’re killing me NVIDIA!

  • Kcoolkent

    What about 685GK110? It is supposed to be 30-50% faster then 680. So, than why it is priced at 600$ while 680 4gb is at 550??
    And what is with the release date, should it be April 2012 for gk110 or is was delayed?

     GK110 was to replace GTX580, but unfortunately AMD 7000 series was not fast enough, so NVIDIA decided to put GK104 in a place of GK110 instead. Long story short, NVIDIA has replaced high-end segment with a card from performance segment. They were expecting HD 7970 to be faster. But it turned out that GK104 is already faster than Tahiti XT then why not sell cheaper GPU instead? Price is right, even if NVIDIA will release GK110 it will be few months after GTX 680 4GB, then prices will drop and $600 will be considered a lot.
