Report: Nvidia To Launch GK104-based GTX 660Ti in August

By published

The Internet rumor mill has turned up another new Nvidia card.

The GK104-based GTX 660Ti is apparently slated for an H1 August launch and debut with a suggested price of $299.

Wccf Tech also noted that the GTX 660Ti will be Nvidia's last GK104 card and the company will be transitioning to the 700 series going forward. At a price of $299, the 660Ti makes a lot of sense below the $399 670 and the $499 680 cards.

    hmm, a pair of these should run like a dream for any single monitor needs. 7800 prices will finally drop a little. all in all good news :)

    wonder how the 700 series will match up to AMD's 8000 series. if the 700 series are indeed GK110 based, then the folks at AMD will have a much better handle on what it's performance might be like, hopefully they use this to their advantage

    Just building a new system, so maybe an ATI price cut coming soon? Would be perfect timing.
    Also, isn't there constantly something new or updated that gets followed by a price cut somewhere else ?

    God, I wish the car companies would do that too. I'd get myself an 'older' Mercedes convertible from the bargain bin :)
