NVIDIA Teases Next Flagship Video Card
by Ryan Smith on March 22, 2011 9:00 AM ESTAs many of you no doubt suspect, NVIDIA is in fact getting ready to launch their next flagship video card. The NDA does not expire for another 48 hours (March 24th at 6am PDT), but in an effort to build up suspense NVIDIA has gone ahead and posted a very brief teaser video about the card and when the NDA expires.
We'll have more in a couple of days, so stay tuned.

That box isn't long enough. Of course, with the trend towards taking up evermore slots for a single card, it is tall enough...fb39ca4 - Wednesday, March 23, 2011 - link
It comes out on my birthday!!!!!!!!!!Of course, there's no way I would be able to afford that :(

Almost all current PC games are being watered down to support 5 year crap console HW. You don't need to spend more than $200 on a single video card to run almost all games at max settings - now including Crysis 2. About the only thing you will be able to throw at this card to see what it is capable of is benchmarks.Shining Arcanine - Thursday, March 24, 2011 - link
It was announced a while ago. Its successor will be Maxwell in 2013.7Enigma - Thursday, March 24, 2011 - link
OK, I'll admit it. I'm a sucker for new flagship tech. Even though it's overpriced, I'll never have one, and not the most elegant combination of performance and power I can't keep myself from anticipating the release of new top-of-the-line stuff.Ryan, if possible, could you manage to do something with this review using Crysis 2? Preferably a short 30sec video or something on a large screen?
Thanks,

2xx,4xx and 5xx series cards over the past 2 years, the 5xx are like 2 months old aren't they?Am I getting old and out of the loop? I've got a 5850 and it seems pretty damn good in high detail 1920x1200 :/
Also - for the love of christ Anandtech, please save the cookie for the comments here? Something is broken - maybe it's the java or something, I don't know but it never remembers my account - use a different login box where firefox can actually save it!
