While I've not seen this anywhere, I suspect...?

GF100 level die with reorganised/optimised shader/ROP arrangement (a la GF104)?

Of course, I'm probably completely wrong, but at this stage, who knows?

Idk, I feel it might just be a rebrand (GTX200 to GTX300 series).

Actually that article says the rumour is its a GF110.
We don't know much beyond the name, but rumors say that it's a GF110-based card with 512 CUDA cores. Hopefully we'll find out soon!

Toms Hardware got their hands on one and put it though its paces:

How come they never touch on the good things like:
Can it run surround with just one card?
How does it do in surround resolutions?

Because its still a relatively small market, you can get a fair idea by checking the benchmarks for 2560x1600. They do that kinda of test but not during there normal testing. But it did answer the surround with one card, it only allows 2 outputs at ones, so no.

Are surround benchmarks common else where, ie other tech or review sites?

There's this... 580 SLI vs. 5870 Crossfire in three games + 3D Surround in BFBC2 on a 3-way SLI setup:

The 580 is 580 bucks. How appropriate.

So... does anyone have 3 of these in surround yet? :D

I was expecting to see a driver update, but it would appear the 580 has its own graphics driver version made specially for it. :shock:

Given that Anandtech very specifically mentions "the 1.5GB GTX580" (a distinction that no one made with the GTX480) I hope that nVidia are doing a 3GB version in the not-too-distant future...
