That box looks like hilarious.. its either a terrible fake or a really poor "artists impression" of what the box will look like.

What? That doesn't make any sense. How is saying that G80 is like G90 let you conclude that they will not make a 1GB G92??

First off, G92 i think thats what you mean is just a core revision of the G80 core on a smaller manufacture process. I believe that the G92 cores are 65mn. And the G80 cores are 90nm.

This has nothing to do with how much ram you can put on the card.

You are incorrect the G92 have a memory bus of 256bit so the go up like 256mb 512mb 1024mb etc etc

ok, i see where you were going with that...

The memory bit path is different with the G80's compared to the G92's...

G80 has 384 or something like that so the ram options for that core is different than the 256bit G92 cores...

Wow, i'll be dissapointed if they do release a 1 gig, because I can't step-up with a palit card, and I don't want to send mine back. Either way, 1 gig would only do you any good at resolutions above 1680x1050.

The tiny flaw that shows that the pic is 100% fake is it says 1GB DDR3, as opposed to 1GB GDDR3. Only an idiot would make that mistake.

It's no that it doesn't look close to it, it's that the box isn't even "made" properly. The pictures and labels on it look recycled, and the card looks like a 7 series with a huge heatsink on it
