With the release of the GTX 460 which received a glowing review on KitGuru, Nvidia are due to release a new series of DX11 cards, specifically models which will go head to head with lower end ATi boards such as the excellent HD5770. Turkish site Donanim Haber posted some details about the GTS 450 which is apparently due for release at the end of August.

Donanim Haber says that the card will have a GF106 graphics processor, 1GB of GDDR5 memory and will be built around a 128 bit memory bus. It is common among enthusiast circles to shudder at the mere mention of 128bits, but with GDDR5 it is possible to eleviate bandwidth constraints by clocking it high. With the memory sitting at 1.2ghz for instance it can translate to around 77GB/s which is more than enough for this specific market.

Nvidia CEO Jen Hsun - hoping the GTS450 will sell by the bucketload

Pricing is obviously guess work right now but figures being mentioned on many rumour sites for the GTS 450 and 455 place them firmly into HD5770 territory, which makes sense as nVidia already have a HD5830 beater out already with the GTX460.

More information as we get it but we hope these sell better than reports which KitGuru received of first week GTX 460 sales in the UK days ago.

KitGuru says: Is this the card you are waiting for? a possible HD5770 beater?

While the GTX480 is an impressive performer at the ultra high end, the market for £500 graphic cards is limited at best. Real sales come in the sub-£150 market. So how much longer will nVidia’s mass market DX11 parts be in hiding?

KitGuru has learned that Santa Clara is now confident of launching mainstream DX11 parts in July. That might mean the new cards can be shown behind closed doors at Computex in Taipei, first week in June. This kind of behind closed doors revelation will only be available to nVidia’s top customers, in an attempt to get them to switch from ATI’s 54xx/55xx/56xx parts.

With a low wattage GT420 providing an entry point, through to the 150w GTS455, nVidia has a full set of DX11, Fermi parts planned.

Kit Guru says: Is it a case of too little too late? Tough to tell. A major factor will be ATI’s timeline for Northern Islands. If nVidia’s new mainstream DX11 products rock and the ATI refresh happens late in Q4, then we can expect a market share move from Red to Green. If Northern Islands deploys quickly and nVidia doesn’t manage to beat the existing products, then Red seems like a safe bet for quite some time.
