Nvidia GT206 and GT212 Spotted in ELSA Roadmap
There has been some talk about Nvidia not releasing any new GPUs any time soon, but ELSA’s presentation slip could offer a peek at what’s next.
A recently leaked ELSA slide, if legitimate, indicates two new GPU’s scheduled to arrive on the shelves. The GT206 and GT212.

From what we can see in the leaked slide, the GT206 will be based on 55nm and the GT212 on 40nm. Pending the validity of this projection chart, the GT206 is slated to replace the GTX260 around the first quarter 2009, then with the GT212 replacing the GTX280 closer to the second quarter 2009.
Interestingly enough the GT212 is specified as TSMC’s 40nm manufacturing process. Other technical data and cost estimations are yet to be learned. If this leak indeed reflects what is to come, then we can more than likely expect more leaked data or publicized information shortly.
I already knew nVidia and ATi were both moving to that,so I'm not really suprised at all *shrugs*
It seems to be so, that NVidia does not believe that their low end versions would sell well enough, if their high end products are not in the Top?
Or is it so that 4650 and 4670 are too good, so it's no use of releasing gt200 series middle range versions, but skip directly to next generation?
Yeah about that... they probably realized that with the enormous die size they won't be able to produce cost-effective "value" offerings based on the GT200 for the time being, so they are probably skipping the whole thing and basing their value segment around the G9x based cards.
That's the only smart thing they've done so far in the past few months if you ask me...
