Any Idea about Nvidia 800M series..

I doubt it. I'm sure once they go to a die shrink it will be the 9XXM series.

 

If that means that I can simply upgrade my Clevo with a GTX 880M instead of buying a whole new laptop then I'm happy. I want Maxwell goodness but a whole new laptop just a year after I purchased this one would be pushing it...

If it's a die shrink I'll 100% get it (as long as I have the moneys of course) but if not... I'll probably still get it. Now that I've gone high-end I'm getting the dreaded PC-upgrade addiction! Further compounded by the fact that this laptop simply can't be overclocked without going thermonuclear and getting severe thermal throttling. There's only so many times one can repaste before one loses all patience...

 

Cakefish : Maxwell wont be on laptop, we will have another Kepler remake with higher frequencies i think, same 28 nm process

 

Ofc it will be, but not anytime soon. Even next year is questionable...

 

I just do not see them not releasing Maxwell next year, we will probably get 28nm on everything but the high end GPU's which will be 20nm, the top card and with a little luck the runner up .

 

Not sure if I should wait or get the 780m iMac. I only wanted to wait if the performance boost was going to take it into desktop gpu territory by 20nm process or something.

 

Im pretty sure nvidia will put maxwell for late 2014...so broadwell comes in 1Q 2014 and maxwell probably 3 or 4Q 2014

 

Going to the US in January of next year, but somehow I doubt that the 8xx series will be out by then. If they were, hello new lappy for half the usual UK price... Might just grab an XBone or PS4 instead to at least get that cheap new electronic feel.

 

Yeah that isn't going to happen, even if you were going in July next year I doubt you would be able to score a laptop with 8XXm series .

 

Yeah, thought not. Still, I live in hope.

Guess I'll settle for that cheaper XBone then.

 

Current hign end gaming laptops will wipe the floor with "next gen", especially with the Xbone, the laptap in your signature should aswell, you just need to add more ram and you should be good .

 

Great. I wondered how well a 780m would fare against PS4/Xbone. Hopefully BF4 & CoD Ghosts are ported well for PC. Screw Xbox Live or PS Plus monthly fee.

 

Oh the 800M series isn`t really that far away... :thumbsup:

NVIDIA Maxwell GM108 and GM107 Engineering Samples Spotted In the Wild

 

If they aren't 20nm parts then they aren't all that interesting IMHO.

 

Isn't Maxwell supposed to have a 64-bit ARM cpu, otherwise know as project Denver? Also, isn't it supposed to have what Nvidia call Unified Virtual Memory, i.e. memory the cpu and gpu can share? I guess without 20nm, they won't get the huge power efficency they had hoped for.

 

and now hp who is branding a GT 840M on their lappy, i think we will have a BIG rebrand from NVIDIA, same 28nm process, but more mastered so they can bump up a little the frequencies..
Hey guys, what do you think ? is nvidia going to make the GTX 860M 960 cuda cores or we will have a rebranded GTX 765M + mhz's ?

 

I'm not buying an 880 laptop if it's still 28nm and mostly a rebrand.

Hi, do you have a reference regarding the HP Notebook?

 

View attachment 104395
voila the envy 15 with a GT 840M, i'm pretty sure it's a GT750M rebrand, the EXACT same card with may be 50MHz more


NVIDIA Maxwell GM100:
8 GPCs/24 SMX/6144 Cuda Cores/384 TMU/64 ROPs/512-bit upto 8 GB GDDR5

NVIDIA Maxwell GM104:
5 GPCs/15 SMX/3840 Cuda Cores/240 TMUs/40 ROPs/320-bit 3 GB VRAM

NVIDIA Maxwell GM106:
2304 ALUs/144 TMUs/24 ROPs/192-bit 3 GB VRAM

NVIDIA Maxwell GM108:
1024 ALUs/64 TMUs/16 ROPs/128-bit 2 GB VRAM

So in other words a 660M?

660M > 750M > 840M.

Can't wait for the 930M

 

So when they are coming out??i gues middle 2014?its too soon if they came 1Q 2014..maybe 1Q 2014 just for low end 800 series

 

This article offers more information on Maxwell http://wccftech.com/alleged-nvidia-...ions-unveiled-project-denver-maxwell-refresh/

 

i expect the cores to be way slower than the kepler ones, so we can have an 1:2 ratio maxwell:kepler performance
the GTX 860 would have 1152CC(kepler) ~ 2304CC(maxwell) cores which is logical if they go for the 20nm. Still i can expect some renaming for the mobile series, or a GTX 860M with 960CC.

 

There might be a way to get GTX 870M and 880M right now. Engineering samples most likely.
Source say they are expecting them to be released around April 2014.

Can`t reveal anything else

If anyone have the means, driver knowledge, bios knowledge etc to make it work on their notebook
and the money, not exactly cheap,
and is interested, PM me.

 

Cloudfire: i'm likely to buy a laptop (sager) in january or march can i expect gtx 860m to be released ?
Had enough of amd and going green

 

I wish I knew buddy. I don`t think we are that far away. They probably do GT cards first. Maybe rebrands first, then some from Maxwell. Then after a month or two release the GTX cards from Maxwell
HP just listed GT 840M in their upcoming notebook and since ES of 870M and 880M is leaked, Nvidia is at hard work making new cards.

 

where is ES 870m and 880m? what specs?

 

notebookcheck just added the GT 840M in their db..
They expect it to be at the level of the gtx 660m (384cc)..

 

384cc, that's quite an engine!

 

Why i'm not surpriced.

 

Why, isnt it exactely like the gt 730/40/50 M ?

 

I guess it is, i was hopping for more boost than that.

 

Any idea about the 800M series? Well, I'm betting the upcoming year will be a surprising one. A lot of members think it will just be another re-brand year, like this year (2012 - 2013), but I don't. Maybe it will in the low-end cards, but I'm not talking about those...

 

as far as i'm concerned, gonna buy a laptop in february, and i doubt there will be any maxwell cards then.. (gtx 860M/865M style)

 

I'm not updating until i see Broadwell/Maxwell and DDR4.

 

i wish i could do that, but i'm in obligation to buy then or never buy until 2017 :/

 

I'm holding out for Maxwell / Broadwell Aswell, er, as well.

Althoug what I'd really like to hold out for is 20nm nVidia.

 

DDR4 will be with Skylake. Good luck with that.

 

I doubt I can make it until 2015 with my current laptop, but we will see. But I hope there's a revision of my current laptop with broadwell/maxwell and with a significant boost in performance, otherwise I may just wait until 2015.

 

Patience is a virtue.

Btw, read this :

Problem is that what the memory controllers will accept.

 

GTX 765M + i7 4800MQ can't make the 2014/2015 season ? you seem to be a little bit exigent about graphics and so on..

 

Not really. If any upcoming games don't play well, am I supposed to run with 20fps? And it will be mid 2015 most likely, which is still 1.5 years out.

 

well, with my i5 + 5650M 2010-2012 was ok @ 1366x768
i think the GTX 765m and the i7 will at least make it to 2016 without be obliged to lower the res to 900p (medium)

 

Between Witcher 3, Titanfall, Thief, Watch Dogs, ... among others, we will see. BF4 already kicks its butt.

 

with next gen games, we will have a need of powerful GPU's

 

That's why we hope GTX8xx wont be just a rebrand, we really need more powerful mobile cards.

 

can AC 4 runs fine @ max details without AA @ 1080p with a GTX 770M ?
if yes we can expect watch dogs to run cool on our machines..

 

I thought gm110 was going to have 8 ARM v8 cores. That should be interesting. http://pastebin.com/jm93g3YG
