Nvidia Plans GeForce GTX 275 Against Radeon HD 4890


VR-Zone learned about a suprise counterattack from Nvidia against the Radeon HD 4890 RV790 card where both camps' offerings are slated for launch on April 6th. Nvidia has briefed their partners only very recently and details have been pretty vague so far. However, it seems Nvidia is confident that this card will be able to compete, if not, wins its competitor's offering.

CJ told us that GeForce GTX 275 is gunning for US$229-$279 price range which competes directly against the Radeon HD 4890 card at similar price point. One possible configuration of the card could be 216 SPs, 512-bit memory interface and higher clocks than GTX 260. Another less possible config could be 240 SPs with 448-bit memory interface.

The same card is £159 from Pixmania and i wouldnt buy from them anyway

"a retailer you can trust"

LOL tell that to my credit card company! They charged my card for £126 without authority and refused to refund until Trading Standards got involved

£143.74 delivered at Novatech (with free 3-4 day delivery service) if of interest to anyone (I think it's the same card). Plus option to collect it next day if you're near any of their stores. Plus 3% Quidco - takes it below £140

Same spec card apart from the Vapor,X cooler which is a lot quieter and better at cooling,If noise doesnt bother you then get the novatech card,

The Play one doesn't have the Vapor X cooler:
