My only question is, if they are going to now name the flagship 990, and using the mid-range GM204 silicone, when will we be seeing the GM210 high-end chip? As a "special" model, akin to the 780Ti, 6 months after this 980, or waiting until the 20nm reduction comes and in the next lineup?
I see this name change as simply a means to boost sales. The average GPU buyer is not a TPU member, does no research, listens to hype, and they truly will think they are getting MASSIVE upgrades from current gen GPU's.
