According to insiders at a Taiwanese production plant, new information about Nvidia’s holiday lineup of graphics cards has come up . According to the source, the top-tiered GeForce 8950GX2 will cost $599 (with two GPUs, similar to 7960 GX2), which isn’t too surprising knowing that it will be the best card around for approximately twelve seconds. As for the 8900GTX, set to replace the current card of choice, the 8800GTX, will be a bit cheaper at $549. A chart of a comparison is available, but this is of course pure speculation, as Nvidia is being secretive right up to the holiday season, as usual.

2NVIDIA has finally gotten a strong grip on the media’s throat with the selective information and press releases they are putting out. It’s no wonder we can’t speculate on the NV55 / Gxx that we call the GeForce 9800 series (NOT 8950GX2/8900GTX), because they simply haven’t provided with a codename yet. The G92 is officially the 8700GTS, the G98 is some lower end model priced at $59, and the G86 is unconfirmed? I’m still placing high bets that they are going to call it the G90, but then again I can’t be sure of it. As for a November 2007 release date, I would agree that it’s highly probable considering the company’s history of high end cards, as well as staying competitive with AMD/ATi’s new upcoming lineup. Additionally, German based CryTek has given some hints about working exclusively with Intel and NVIDIA to give gamers the “best possible experience”, meaning that Intel would release its Extreme Edition of the 45nm Penryn “Yorkfield” and “Wolfdale” chips in November, and NVIDIA would accordingly release the GeForce 9800 series.
Anyways, congrats to NVIDIA for keeping their release info on the “down low”. As much as you all want a definitive answer, I’m very sure that it will be a November release for the GeForce 9800.
By the way, your source is outdated. It’s from Frebruary.
