So I've been doing a little reading around and now there are rumors out there that the GTX GPU's will be released in May. Anyone think there is any credibility in that?
-
tell us the author of what you read so we may also talk about its credibility..
-
Probably paper launch in May, but the products won`t be available until after Haswell have launched in early June.
Same goes for mobile GPUs. -
These are desktop chips, mobile tends to follow in a short while. I would say June release for 780m (total guesswork)
-
I just hope the pricing is more reasonable this time around. gtx 680 was too expensive.

780M is likely to be a direct replacement TBH.
-
GTX 760M, twice as much cores as a GTX 660M. It will have GPU Boost 2.0 so it will clock much higher than 719MHz.
-
Pic link broken.
GPU-Z doesn't even see CUDA atm.
Twice as many cores and same 128bit 64GB/s VRAM means we'll have bandwidth bottleneck problems... And px fillrate even slower? Is this to be believed? -
Thanks for linking it again.
It have lower pixel fillrate (10GP vs 660M 13.2GP) because it is clocked at 719Mhz. That fillrate will increase by a whole lot once the GPU Boost kicks in. GT 750M GPU-Z reports 967MHz but the GPU Boost clocks it to 1200MHz.
That Bandwidth isn`t that great, no. I assume we will see GTX 760M clocked at 1250MHz too just like GT 750M so I think the bandwidth will increase to 660M level.
So it will be twice the shaders of a 660M but with the same memory bandwidth. Not sure how that will play out. -
So what is the general consensus on the 750M? I was thinking about a Y500 w/ single 750M for the time being, potentially a SLI 2nd after a while. Will a single 750M be able to handle a Skyrim, Sleeping Dogs, etc decently? Or would I just be throwing my money down the drain?
-
Runs just fine at high detail on my 650m...
-
That's just on a single 650M? Thanks HTWingNut. I appreciate the input. Surely SLI will deliver good enough performance for a couple of years.
-
Don't forget, he is talking about 768p.
-
This is true. 768p. Is the Y500 1080p? If so no 128-bit GPU will be "futureproof" at least if you want to run at 1080p.
-
It also says the 750M is 75% faster than the 650M in Crysis. That's a nice improvement. :thumbsup:

It's not 75%.......
-
Exactly. No way it's 75% faster. It's just a faster clocked 650m. Although if it comes with GDDR5 that will make a difference.
-
The Y500s indeed have GDDR5 for their GT750Ms, as well as 1080p panels.
-
So it may be possible at 1080p the 750m does significantly better than 650m with DDR3. But I never saw that comment anywhere else about it being 75% faster.
-
It says right here it's "up to 75% faster than the previous generation on Crysis..."

Probably DDR3 650M vs GDDR5 750M at high details and resolution.
So 2 FPS vs 3.5 FPS..... -
Still a big deal for a 14" laptop, LOL.

Not really at 3.5FPS, the impact will be much smaller at lower resolutions.
