Same specs and price
The single-PCB Geforce GTX 295, just like the one we've showed
you here, is officially launching in late May. Nvidia's control freak machine
could not keep these cards under wraps until the launch date, but there is
little to be excited about this card.
The performance is the same, the clocks are the same but TDP
should be a tad different. GTX 295 single-PCB should hold the performance crown
until GT300 launches later this year, as we don't expect any high end updates
from Nvidia before Q4 2009. It also looks like ATI’s performance DirectX 11
card won’t be launching before Q4 2009 either, so Nvidia should not have much to
worry about.
There is little chance we will see any DirectX 10.x cards
faster than GTX 295 and single-GPU GTX 285 or Radeon HD 4870 X2 or a single-GPU
4890. The next step for both is Q4 2009 with DirectX 11.
