According to Digitimes, the two major GPU makes are already readying the next generation cards that’ll be capable of DirectX 11. The said cards will be available by the end of the year.
Nvidia’s GT300 series cards will be done by end of this month and will be ready for shipping by December of this year.
With the ATi’s 5800 series will also be done by around the same time Nvidia’s GT300 series, but they’ll start shipping 2 months earlier which is around October. A little too fast. As usual trying to catch up to beat the competition.
This’ll pretty much mean that price drops are coming. Upgrades are coming. Time to save up. LOL. I ain’t upgrading my GTX295 anytime soon. I’m still saving up for an i7.
