"by removing overclocking restrictions, AIB's will be able to offer a range of overclocked SKU's, "

What? Overclock restrictions? Since when did GPUs have such things? I know shaders or ROPs might be 'locked,' but that's an architectural thing.

no ATI has commonly prevented AIB partners from selling pre oc'd cards

The GTX 250 perhaps? Costing around 250$ it should be a decent card...

why would they?

The 9600GSO, 8800GT, 8800GTS all use the same board

8800GTS512 and 9800GTX+ use the same board

9800GTX and 9800GX2 are EOL most likly.


What we should expect with the 55nm move is new cards for this likeup

What about taking the G92B putting it on an 8800GTS 512 and relabling it 280GT as Id assume GT could mean midrange. Why make a card half of the G200 when we have one for midrange. Sadly the 9600GT is not proper midrange for Nvidia this go around, its 1/4 the power of the GT200 core, much like the 8600GTS was
