published What's coming? Who's coming?
Nvidia's Facebook page is teasing something that's coming. It's a pure tease, as it only shows the image above with text repeated in a status update post that simply reiterates, "It's Coming."
UPDATE: Nvidia's told us that it will be holding a special live web stream from its GeForce LAN 2012 in Shanghai this weekend. Part of the live stream will include a special announcement, so you won't want to miss it. Keep an eye on Nvidia's countdown page here, which will finish its countdown at 7:30 p.m. PDT / 10:30 p.m. EDT.
Anyone care to guess what it might be?

silverblue Could even be the unneutered card that we all originally expected. I'm fully expecting it to be the 685 instead of the 690... unless NVIDIA believes it good enough to warrant the 780 moniker. In any case, you'd expect a x90 or x95 card to be dual-GPU.Reply -
dragonsqrrl With a teaser image that dramatic, it's probably referring to the GTX690. I have no idea how Nvidia's planning to supply GPU's for these upcoming products, all of which are based on gk104 (GTX690, GTX670ti, GTX670), seeing how they can't even properly supply the GTX680 at the moment.Reply -
