Will NVIDIA announce GeForce GTX 870 and 880 at Gamescom?
New rumors are showing some interesting developments regarding the upcoming GeForce GTX 870 and 880 from Nvidia. The two Maxwell Gm204 based graphics cards could make an early appearance or announcement mid-August already. There are two events rather soon where ‘something could be shown to public’. First is SIGGRAPH the second Gamescom. This event takes place in Germany between 13rd and 17th August.
Now some user at notebook-review forums posted the following:
Check the Title and comment. "New Maxwell cards incoming and then Gamescom. The screenshot shows 3DMark Firestrike in Extreme mode with a 6110 points score, roughly 20% better then a GeForce GTX 780 Ti.
Now if you blow up things a bit ... you could see an 800 series product mentions.
And then there's this from the NVIDIA UK Facebook. Now obviously we can not validate the score or anything, but this might be too much of a coincidence to suddenly appear on the web.

NVIDIA will support the DX12 API on all the DX11-class GPUs it has shipped; these belong to the Fermi, Kepler and Maxwell architectural families :

Well then that's ok, because i thought for some reason it meant upgrades to use it at all.
DX12 should be backwards compatible so any of these card will be "ready".

If it would be any other way then DX12 won't stand a chance to rival Mantle.

They should probably skip dx12 and go for 13 with new things in there AND counter the driver overhead. That would kill mantle anyway...

I have a overclocked 560 ti (MSI TWIN FRONNZ II OC). It was playing all new gamess perfectly at max settings until a month ago when my old 1280x1024 monitor that ihad since 2006 burmed. So i was forced to buy a new monitor and i bought a 1080p one. Now while the graphics in all games are a lot better than in 1280x1024 i saw a massive perfomance hit especialy in games that are made for high end pcs like crysis 3 tomb raider bf4 metro last light tomb raider e.t.c. And with games like witcher 3 the division doom e.t.c. you know games that will have amazing graphics is time for me to upgrade. So i am going at 880 ti or 870 at fist week of release!!

I thought the 8xx was going to be Dx12.
Is it not?
If not then i'll just wait for a Dx12 card to come out.
DX12 should be backwards compatible so any of these card will be "ready".
