Nvidia and AMD are preparing to launch their latest DirectX 11 supporting GPUs in the second half of 2009, according to sources at graphics card makers.

Nvidia is scheduled to complete engineering samples of its DirectX 11-based GT300 GPU at the end of September in order to start shipping in December at the earliest, the sources noted.

Meanwhile, AMD is prepared to launch its DirectX 11-based Radeon HD 5800 series (RV870) in late September and will start mass shipping in October. AMD will launch two models initially, the Radeon HD 5850 and 5870, the sources added.

AMD declined the opportunity to respond to this report saying it cannot comment on unannounced products. Nvidia was also contacted, but did not respond by the time of publication.

This will guarantee price drops for all current cards. I plan on buying the 4870 x2 once these 5800's come out.
 
man i want nVidia 260's (any one know when 295's are comming out?)
 
:closedeyes: i made a thread of this already, ppl just stoped posting on it a couple of days ago, it has all the information on the ATI 5 series cards and the dates they are coming out along with the card specs.
 
Sadly, this only means that video game developers will write their programs so they have more eye candy, with less story. I miss good old games like starcraft and sonic and knuckles.
