I can't think of a better way to get rid of the old chips.

Pretty much i guess. Not only that but you also have the cost of developing the Mobile chips as well. The average laptop user doesn't care and for the avid gamer, they'll obviously do the research. AMD did it as well. The 7000-7560M are all rebranded cards from the 6000M. Which may have also been rebranded or slightly tweaked from the previous series. Only the upper-mid range to high performance cards will be based on the Kelper.

Nvidia Reportedly Prepping More Fermi Cards as 600-Series
5:00 PM - April 11, 2012 by Douglas Perry - source: Fudzilla

Rebadging old products with new names is a trend graphics cards buyers are used to.


Most recently, Nvidia confirmed that it will slap new labels on two old Fermi cards for OEMs who want to suggest that buyers are getting newer generation cards. If a report from Fudzilla is accurate, the rebranding will not be limited to OEMs, but reach retail and there may be another Fermi card that will join the Kepler ride as an unexpected guest.

Nvidia reportedly plans to rebrand the GeForce GT 440 (GF108), provide a BIOS update and sell it as the GT 630. Previously, Nvidia confirmed that the upcoming GeForce GT 605 and 620 are Fermi based (GT 510 and GT 520/GF108, respectively), while it now appears that there will also be a 610 model that is based on the GT520/GF119. Eventually you will see new cards in retail - the 610, GT 620, and GT 630 - all of which are labeled as 600-series cards, but are based on the old Fermi architecture.

The strategy behind this marketing decision appears to be a defensive move against integrated solutions from AMD and possibly even Intel's Ivy Bridge. There may be customers who are simply replacing an older card and they may not care what architecture they buy as long as the product in a retail shelf fits their price range. However, buyers who do basic research and consult Nvidia's product page may be tricked into believing they are buying a new product, while they are in fact purchasing last year's technology.

We contacted Nvidia for comment, but have yet to receive an answer.

Report: Nvidia Stopping Production of GeForce GTX 580, 590
3:00 PM - April 16, 2012 by Doug Crowthers - source: SweClockers

With the success of the Kepler-based GTX 680 and more units slated for May and beyond, Nvidia's partner manufacturers have stopped production of the GTX 580 & GTX 590.

Information coming out of SweClockers states that Nvidia has reportedly stopped production of GeForce GTX 580 GPUs. Launched in November, 2010, the GeForce GTX 580 had been the fastest single-GPU graphics card until AMD responded with Radeon HD 7900 series over a year later. With the successful launch of the GeForce GTX 680 and more Kepler based GPUs slated in May, the GeForce GTX 580 has served its purpose to users around the world. The cards will remain in inventory until fully excused out in the market. Nvidia has already stopped production of GeForce GTX 590, with the rumored dual Kepler-based card already in the works.

NVIDIA unleashes GeForce GTX 690 graphics card, loads it with dual Kepler GPUs, charges $1k



GG


By Joe Pollicino  posted Apr 29th 2012 12:57AM

Would you look at that? NVIDIA hinted it would be coming today, and it looks like the tease is living up to the hype. The company stormed into the weekend at its Shanghai Game Festival by unleashing its latest offering, the GeForce GTX 690 -- and oh yeah, it's packing two 28nm Kepler GPUs! Trumping the recently released GTX 680 as the "worlds fastest graphics card," it's loaded with a whopping 3,072 Cuda cores. The outer frame is made from trivalent chromium-plated aluminum, while you'll find thixomolded magnesium alloy around the fan for vibration reduction and added cooling. Aiding in cooling even further, the unit also sports a dual vapor chamber and center-mounted fan. It'll cost you a spendy $1,000 to pick up one these puppies come May 3rd, and you'll likely be tempted to double up -- two can run together in SLI as an effective quad-core card. With that said,NVIDIA claims that a single 690 runs 4dB quieter and handles about twice the framerate as a duo of GTX 680s in SLI -- impressive, but we'll reserve judgement until we see it for ourselves. check out the press release after the break if you'd like more information in the meantime (...and yes, it runs Crysis -- 2 Ultra to be exact -- at 57.8fps, according to NVIDIA).

This card being twice as fast as two GTX 680's in SLI is wrong. Twice as fast as ONE 680 in a very selective benchmark (Heaven) is more like it.

Thinking about it logically, anyone can see that two downclocked 680's could never double up on performance on two full sized cards.

Whilst MOST ppl will laugh off that price, hey as long as there are buyers with deep enough pockets to purchase the single most powerful dual gpu single card solution on earth (ftw) then hey I doh give em wrong, it's dollars and cents to them.

Its a very good SLI on a stick solution...but depending on the individual, it will fail or take epic win for a variety of reasons.

Must admit though, if that proposed 1K price tag is to be believed, a LOT of people wanting SLI are going to want to take a bite, especially as two separate 680's cost more than that right now.

This is impressive because as far as I remember, historically, dual gpu cards have always worked out to be more expensive than two separate GPU's of the same pedigree.

Well I did buy 2 680s. So this would of made sense to get right.

Wrong.... this cannot beat the dual PCB setup..

I am only pointing this towards the comment of double FPS...
