Rumor: GeForce Fermi GF100 GPU Launches Early December

It’s still a rumor, but stories are that Nvidia is taking pre-orders on the upcoming GF100, the Fermi chip we’ve discussed before, with an uncommitted ship-date.

It is also said that the company is now taking pre-orders for the GF100 GPU, without any guarantees on the final shipping date for and to it’s partners. Designed on the 40nm fab process, the NVIDIA GF100 graphics processing unit is expected to end-up faster than AMD’s Radeon HD 5870 flagship card, although we have yet to receive specific numbers, features and information.

They are targeting HPC and workstation markets first, as they have the most use for the special features of the Fermi card.  As usual, this is all rumor right now so take it with a grain of salt.
