Nvidia told a few holy souls that its new high end card is getting ready for Q1 2008 launch. Nvidia knows it is late for Xmas but it didn't had much options as the new high end was simply not ready for Q4 2007.
The whole new high end codenamed D8E – Enthusiast will have two chips on two PCB's with two huge power connectors. Most of you remember the 7950 GX2 so this will be a similar card. It is still unconfirmed if the chips on this cards are two G92's but it is suspected that Nvidia can enable the eight cluster of this 65nanometre chip and make the current 8800GT chip even faster. If Nvidia does that 8800GT chip will become 8800GTS 512MB, just with a touch of a flash tool.
After all the G92 has more transistors than the G80 which means it has at least the same brute power, faster Shaders and a new Video processors and we are sure that it has eight clusters just as many as G80 has.
Two of these chips should run very fast and expect such a card should be able to beat R680, ATI’s high end scheduled for the same timeframe which is said to beat 8800 ULTRA.
Nvidia also plans a new single chip high end card for mid 2008 codenamed G100 or D9E.
