AIB partners haven't received Geforce GTX 400 reference designs
A Digitimes report claims that several AIB partners have reported that Nvidia still haven't sent them complete reference designs for the Geforce GTX 400 series. The March 26th date was always expected to be a paper launch, so this news should come as no surprise.

Widespread availability is expected in May, at the earliest, with limited quanitites available in April. Interestingly, XFX and PNY are already offering pre-orders at $499 for the Geforce GTX 470 and $679 for the GTX 480.

[Rumour] Geforce GTX 400 Series details (Performance, pricing, etc.)
Turkish website DonanimHaber have got their hands on more information about Nvidia's much anticipated (and much delayed) Geforce GTX 400 series. First off, the Geforce GTX 470 will end up 20-25% faster than the previous-generation Geforce GTX 285. That would put it somewhere between the Radeon HD 5850 and the Radeon HD 5870. Unfortunately, the price is rumoured to be $500 at this early stage, which is simply astronomical considering the competition.

The faster Geforce GTX 480 will retail at $600, and should end up faster than the much cheaper HD 5870, though by very little. Needless to say, the HD 5970 will end up much faster than the GTX 480. The GTX 480 is expected to have similar power consumption to the HD 5970, closing in on the PCI-e barrier of 300W.

ATI Radeon HD 5830 Release Round-up
ATI completed its ambitious four GPUs in six months schedule with clinical precision early this month. Since then, the priority has been to fill in the gaps of the current Radeon HD 5000 series line-up. The biggest hole, by far, was the space between the $170 Radeon HD 5770 and the $300 Radeon HD 5850. After several rumours, and many delays, the long awaited Radeon HD 5830 is here.

Unfortunately, much unlike ATI's previous HD 5000 series releases, this one is a bit of a mess.
