Nice to see a bigger die with a proper increase in performance. Will be interesting to see how AMD does with bigger chips.

Can't see this even closely matching GK110 though.

E: article actually says forecast... moved.

That's slightly smaller than the R600 (Radeon HD 2900 XT) which is 420mm².

30-40% faster than the 7970 still puts it 20-30% behind GK110.

These are projections, aka "I think it will be ____". Also, we have GK110 benchmarks and actual performance info? Please link, I'm actually curious about GK110 performance and haven't seen any concrete data, just guesstimates and assumptions.

You really expect a Geforce part using GK110 to double the performance of GTX 680?
If anything, it looks like gaming performance in todays games are ROP/bandwidth bound for GTX 680 (GTX 670 is practically identical at the same frequency,) and a Geforce part using GK110 would probably run at 10-15% lower frequencies, making the ROP/Memory performance increase be at about 40-45% (theoretical.) Since no architecture scales perfectly, you're looking at a 30-40% increase in gaming performance from a Geforce part using GK110.

AMD will probably have to increase ROP count by 50% for their next high-end chip as well to match the GK110, but they will probably cram as many shader ALUs as possible without increasing die size too much. Though it looks like GCN is marginally more efficient per mm^2 than Kepler is (comparing Pitcairn to GK104 and Cape Verde to GK107.)
