Nvidia kills GTX285, GTX275, GTX260, abandons the mid and high end market

Was looking around and didn't see this posted. Thought it might be of interest to those who are planing a build soon.

Charlie has been known to be, well, semiaccurate.

Yes I agree. Don't expect anyone to believe anything Charlie has wrote. He's been caught several times lying. In fact, that's why he lost his job at "The Inquirer" is because he got caught lying.

LOL, that guy is one crazy kook...

Quote:
Word from sources deep in the bowels of 2701 San Tomas Expressway tell us that the OEMs have been notified that the GTX285 is EOL'd, the GTX260 is EOL in November or December depending on a few extraneous issues, and the GTX275 will be EOL'd within 2 weeks. I would expect this to happen around the time ATI launches its Juniper based boards, so before October 22.

The lone survivor, maybe, is the GTX295, available only as a complete board from Nvidia. This is said to be almost impossible to get, likely for reasons we went into in the earlier financial article, cost. AIBs do not expect this product to last very long, likely until current stock is depleted.

just these 2 statements prove its complete bull, the GTX 285, 275 and 260 are canned, but possibly the 295 continues? How? the 295 is 2 275's on one board, so if the 275 is hosed so is the 295

sounds like some sort of Anti-Nvidia Propaganda to help boost ATI sales.

if I'm not mistaken that was one of the reasons this guy got shit canned from The Inquirer also, besides the made up shit, was the Bias towards one of the brands, I'm pretty sure it was ATI if I remember too. At least I remember reading about that recently too.

Or some propoganda that they want Nvidia's sales to boost considering "the cards will be stopped." Either way It seems like this guy is really asking for a boot in the ass. If the people that hired him figure out he was fired for doing something this drastic before, they just might fire him as well. I don't know what side this childish fanboy is on, but I know he's going to have hell to pay.

the article right before OP's link, the douche claims that there are plenty of cards and the shortages are artificial.
SemiAccurate :: Nvidia will crater GTX260 and GTX275 prices soon

Obvious troll is obvious?
the idiot has no concept of reality or fact-checking.

I want to thank all of you for setting me straight on Charlie. However if you fallow all of the links you can't help but to think that something is afoot at Nvidia. Apple drops them Dell drops them, Possible litigation from Intel.

regardless if your " an Ati Boy" or " an Nvidia Boy" the market for High end vid cards warrents watching IMO, Grant you I am somewhat of a newbie to all of this tech stuff, after all, all I do is run a drill rig, but it doesn't take a lot of intelligence to read between the lines on all of this. Things are a changing as they always do.
