Hey I can't post the source.

i am having hard time believing that 20nm part too

 

He said 20nm thing is a surprise

That's why it was not revealed yet

Just take it with a truckload of Salt

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 Official MSRP Will Be $299 US – Non-Reference Models Will Retail Around $329-$349 US

 

The title says it all, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 will retail at an official MSRP of just $299 US. While we earlier speculated a price point of around $349 US, it seems like NVIDIA is going to surprise everyone by selling the GTX 970 for just $299 US which is quite the sweet spot for gamers aiming for 1080P and 1440P resolutions.

i am praying that 970 in india should be <=20K cuz will be upgrading next year GPU(20K) and PSU(5K).

$299 mean 18.2K in INR.

what was the MRP of GTX 770 when it launched here in india?

~35000/-, more expensive for the 4GB version and custom versions (cooler and shroud).

[SRINI87]

hmmm... 770 launched for $400 and in india for 35000

if you go by that, $299 GTX970 will cost around 25-26K

SH*t

[joken732a]

and i just checked local price of a GTX 770 2GB Asus/Zotac is now 25K.

Maybe a week, tops two.

 

At-least from companies like ZOTAC!, other third-party manufacturers will turn up depending on the demand and how strongly the card retails outside. And proper custom jobs maybe a whole month later depending on the same system.

GTX 970 Non reference score

 

Waiting for the live test results to out already.

and i just checked local price of a GTX 770 2GB Asus/Zotac is now 25K.

 

After about a year of retailing over thirty-thirty five plus duking it out with the R9-290 custom versions which devastate it in performance.

@ALPHA and @SRIN Thanks



MSI has been teasing their Twin Frozr V cooler for the past few weeks now. So it’s about time we take closer look at GTX 970 GAMING, the first card to feature TF5 cooling.

MSI’s GTX 970 is not a card for casual gamers. GTX 970 GAMING is a real monster. It has two huge 100mm propeller-blade fans accompanied by a nice black and red shroud.

GeForce GTX 970 has 1664 CUDA cores, 384 less than GTX 980. MSI’s 970 GAMING is factory-overclocked to 1140 MHz, with a boost clock at 1279 MHz. It has 4GB GDDR5 memory across 256-bit interface. This particular card has a TDP of 148W, so two power connectors, from which one is 8pin, were not really required.

Unlike reference card, MSI’s model has only a ‘default’ set of display connectors: DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI and DisplayPort. GeForce GTX 970 will launch on Friday, the price remains unknown.

what is TF5 cooling?

Air cooled....meh

 

Isn't 1140mhz already clocked too high? How much headroom is there for overclocking/boost etc?

[Big Boss]

Lots. MSI cards go up to 75C only in burn tests.

Not in the temps, I meant mhz cycles. Your PC can crash/freeze even without hitting thermal limits if you OC the GPU too high. My card doesn't go above 75c with max overvolt, but I still can't break 1200mhz barrier.
