Nvidia is Teasing Something To Be Released 29.04.17 - Updated Myth Busted!

On a regional Nvidia facebook page Nvidia is teasing that something is to be announced or released April the 29th, which would be on a Saturday.

The facebook post (Nvidia Italy) also demos a video of polygons in the form of a planet in space or something like that. It is unusual to see hardware released in that timeframe, polygons over a planet. It might be something game stream on a more global scale? Well, there's nothing like a good viral I guess.

Update:

We just got word in, this teaser is not about a product announcement but it merely anteaser for a Southern Europe event slash gathering. And judging from the naming, I'd say chances are fairly high that it is in collaboration with ASUS.

Below the video that went viral.

Its performance is indeed a big leap compared to the previous generation, but if you take the entire lineup into consideration, it's mid-range hardware sold at a top-end price. AMD is trying to do the same, but since they're trailing NVIDIA on market share, they can't afford to lose even more to price policies.

Keep in mind that before the whole Titan idiocy, GPUs were more or less at a hard stop gap of around $600 of today's dollars, and even these options where for the insane.

I'm curious as to why you would so blatantly parrot inaccurate information like that. You're a smart guy from what i've seen of your comments over the years, and you should know that the GTX 1080 ti is more in line with what nVidia has charged for their top consumer grade cards than the price of the standard 1080.
