Fermi for the rest of us, this is mission for GTX 465, before GF 104 based videocard are available, nVidia seems to have decided to push a -relatively- affordable GTX 465, based on GF 100 as GTX 480 & 470.
352 SP, 256bits memory-bus, 1GB video memory, with a tag price around $249, it’s a GTX 2xx replacement that will offers improved gaming experience, and is the soft-spot (in terms of price and performance) for CUDA and OpenCL developpers. This TX 465 is what I was waiting for to upgrade my GTX 260 and to go to the Fermi path, that is really promising! (naturally I will keep a laptop with GeForce 9400M and 9600M GT)
It should be unveiled at Computex, early june, for an availability this summer.
There’s one bad new: as with GeForce GTX 2xx series, that were not declined, GF 104 GPU seems to be late, really late, and may even never show. nVidia creates good designs but is unable to downsize them for the rest of their videocard line. Fermi may stay reserved for high-end videocard and the rest of us will use them same G80-derived GPU, without Fermi capabilities (2006-derived design!)
