It has been reported by Brightsideofnews that NVIDIA would be launching their GeForce 700 series including the flagship GeForce GTX 780 as soon as May 2013. According to the information from their Asia based sources, the company is planning to launch three new GeForce 700 series SKUs which will be featuring refined version of the 28nm Kepler architecture.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 – Powered by GK110 Core Architecture

The most interesting part about the report is that we have already been hearing about the GeForce GTX Titan LE for the past few months. The card which is a consumer version of the already released Tesla K20C would not be another TItan GPU but rather the next flagship GeForce GTX 780 graphics card featuring the same specifications. The GeForce GTX 780 would be powered by the GK110 core boasting 2496 Cuda cores and a 5 GB GDDR5 VRAM which was indicated in a leaked picture of the board itself.

The leak could now be considered true since it was mentioned that Titan LE was just an internal codename of the card, retail name would be something else and with a different cooling scheme compared to the Titan. It was speculated that the Titan LE, now known as the GTX 780 would be priced around the $499 – $599 mark.

According to an analysis done by 3DCenter, NVIDIA could possibly be readying a new GeForce class graphics card codenamed “Titan Ultra” which would feature a fully enabled GK110 core. The GK110 is available on both the Tesla and GeForce front but neither of the lineups have till now featured a fully enabled GK110 core.

Currently, NVIDIA is preparing a cut down version of the already released GTX Titan codenamed “GeForce GTX Titan LE”. Later it was unveiled through a leak that the “LE” branding was for internal usage hence the official name of the card might be something else. The card is said to feature 2304-2496 Cuda cores and a 5 GB GDDR5 (384-bit) memory. It is speculated to be priced around $659-$759.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX TItan Ultra With 2880 Cores Possibly In Works?

Moving forward, NVIDIA would launch a fully enabled GK110 graphics card probably around 2013 or 2014 as speculated by 3DCenter. The new card is being referred to as GeForce GTX Titan Ultra, a name similar to its ancestor “GeForce 8800 Utlra” which featured tons of graphical performance but also came at a very high price.

NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX Titan Ultra (if it ever launched) would feature 2880 Cuda cores and since the GK110 would have matured by then, we would be looking at even faster clock speeds of 950 MHz for core and 3400 MHz (6.8 GBps) for memory. You might remember GF-100 in its first iteration on the GTX 480 had much faster clock speeds compared to the GF-114 revision on the GTX 580 that pumped up the core count along with the clock speeds. We are looking at a similar scenario here. The card would feature the same amount of memory – 6 GB GDDR5 (384-bit)  and would have a rated TDP of 220-230W. 

Fudzilla has brought up an interesting rumor mentioning that NVIDIA’s upcoming GeForce 700 series may finally be arriving by Computex 2013. Computex 2013 is expected to take place in the first week of June and might be a right time to showcase their upcoming cards.

NVIDIA GeForce 700 Series Rumored To Launch by Computex?

The source mentions that this would be direct response from NVIDIA to AMD for their aggressive bundle push over the past few months. The upcoming cards would still be based on the existing 28nm Kepler architecture or should i say a more refined version of the chips. This would deliver not a generational leap in performance over current 600 series cards but would definitely be faster than NVIDIA’s current lineup.

We don’t have a fix date but Nvidia has talked to some of its partners assuring them that they will have something new and hot to see as of May 2013. Computex 2013 starts in late May but Nvidia might launch its new graphics card generation a bit earlier.

Nvidia also wants to put pressure on new console sales, as now more than ever Nvidia wants to tell the world that PC gaming is the future. Fudzilla

At the Investor Day conference, NVIDIA’s CEO Jen-Hsun Huang, demonstrated their upcoming Tegra 5 Logan SOC   running a section of DICE’s Battlefield 3.

NVIDIA Tegra 5 Logan With Kepler Architecture Runs Battlefield 3

NVIDIA showcased a live demonstration of Battlefield 3 running on their next generation mobile SOC, Tegra 5 Logan. The mobile SOC was unveiled by NVIDIA during their GTC 2013 conference where the company revealed their updated Tegra roadmap highlighting their current Tegra 4/ Tegra 4i, Tegra 5 Logan and Tegra 6 Parker SOCs. NVIDIA’s Tegra 5 Logan SOC would be a generation ahead of the competition boasting a new Kepler GPU architecture with CUDA and OpenGL 4.3 support, It is planned for launch sometime in 2014. In 2015, NVIDIA would reveal their Tegra 6 Parker SOC which would feature their Denver CPU and Maxwell GPU architecture which would once again push the boundaries on the mobile front.

The live demonstration of Battlefield 3 which featured HDR lighting, Rich geometery, dynamic lightning and improved particle effects goes off to show the amazing power NVIDIA’s next gen chips hold and running a high-end game title on a mobile device would be a worth while experience in itself. The Tegra 6 Logan chip was also compared against the Apple iPad  running its own graphical benchmark powered by its Dual Core A6X and Quad core graphics chip however it can be clearly seen that the demo holds nothing against Battlefield 4. NVIDIA also called the iPad graphics “Vintage 1999″.

“We want to get multiple years ahead of the competition,” said Huang. “It was worth the sacrifice.” NVIDIA CEO via TechRadar

NVIDIA is said to offer Metro: Last Light Bundle promotion with their current GeForce 600 series GPUs. Currently, NVIDIA offers their “Free2Play” Bundle promotion which offers $150 of value to GeForce 600 users but rival AMD has upped their own “Never Settle” promotion over the last few months by adding some of the most anticipated titles such as Bioshock: Infinite, Crysis 3, Tomb Raider and the recently added Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon promotion leaving NVIDIA quiet behind in the game bundle wars.

NVIDIA GeForce 600 Series Get Metro: Last Light Bundle

Well, NVIDIA seems to have given the answer by announcing that from April 16th (Tuesday; Next Week), they would be bundling A4 games upcoming Metro: Last light titles which is the sequel to the highly acclaimed Metro: 2033 that pushed PC graphics to new boundaries. The same is expected this year with Metro: Last Light that would once again pit us as Artyom who would explorer the subway networks of a post apocalyptic Moscow.

Game bundle wars between NVIDIA and AMD have been a one-sided contest in favor of the latter, with AMD bundling the hottest AAA titles with its Radeon hardware, compared to NVIDIA offering in-game currency on popular free-to-play games. Following news of AMD stepping up its “Never Settle Reloaded” with Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon on all GPUs upwards of Radeon HD 7750, we’ve learned that NVIDIA is frantically responding by preparing to give away Metro: Last Light with all GeForce GPUs upwards of the $200 GTX 660. The bundle will go live from April 16th.TechpowerUp

Note: Before reading this article, we would like to advise our readers that the news below is a rumor based on a tip from an anonymous tipster hence should be taken with a grain of salt.

We heard news about NVIDIA preparing another GK110 GPU for release in summer known as GeForce GTX Titan LE. Today, we received a tip from an anonymous user who seems to got his hands on a sample of the upcoming graphic card.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan LE Possibly Spotted?

The information we received came with a backside PCB shot and a few technical details of the upcoming GeForce GTX Titan LE GPU. As you can note, the PCB is remarkably similar to the original GeForce GTX Titan minus a few memory chips. In total, there are 20 memory chips (10 on back, 10 on front) which amounts to a 5 GB GDDR5 memory buffer across a 320-bit interface. Given NVIDIA’s Titan and 600 series specifications, the GTX Titan LE would have its memory clocked at 6008 MHz effective frequency. We can’t see anything else new on the board. The power scheme remains the same which includes 8+6 Pin PCI-e connectors, 2 SLI Gold fingers, DVI-DL, HDMI and Display port for display connectivity.

It is also seen that the GTX Titan LE uses the same cooler as the GTX Titan so the overall design would be very similar. The only thing that would be changed is the GK110 with reduced core count around 2304-2496 and a 5 GB GDDR5 (384-bit) memory. Hopefully, we would be looking at a lower price range around $659-$759.

NVIDIA might possibly be delaying their upcoming GeForce 700 series till 2014, as reported by Game-Debate. Reports about NVIDIA and AMD delaying their next-generation GPUs to Q4 2013 surfaced a couple of months ago which mentioned that neither the GeForce 700 series or the upcoming Radeon HD 8000 series discrete GPUs would appear until Q4 2013.

NVIDIA GeForce 700 Series Delayed Till 2014?

While it has been almost confirmed that AMD would be launching their top-to-bottom “Radeon HD 8000” series lineup in Q4 2013, NVIDIA might go ahead and delay their Kepler refresh “GeForce 700 series” the reason for which most are mentioning as NVIDIA’s focus towards mobile and server market as indicated by their GeForce Grid and Tegra based GeForce Shield announcements at CES 2013 while releasing cut down GK110 parts such as the upcoming GeForce GTX Titan LE for consumers.

Do keep in mind that most people are referring the GTX Titan LE part as the GTX 780 which it is not. The same happened a few months ago early to the original GeForce GTX Titan launch when a few sites started calling the card as the GeForce GTX 780 falling under the Kepler refresh series however it wasn’t. In the end, it was just referred to as the GeForce GTX Titan and the new part would similarly be refereed to as the GeForce GTX Titan LE.

A day earlier, reports surfaced that NVIDIA could be preparing a cut down version of their recently launched GeForce GTX Titan GPU which would launch in Q3 2013. The new GPU is supposed to be codenamed GeForce GTX Titan LE and the first alleged GPU-z screenshot of the card has been leaked by Chiphell forums.

NVIDIA GK110′s Little Brother – GeForce GTX Titan LE

As you can note from the GPU-z specifications, the GeForce GTX Titan LE features quite a slimmed down version of the GK110 core with 12 SMX units enabled compared to 14 SMX on the GTX Titan. The GeForce GTX Titan LE comes with 2304 Cores, 192 TMUs, 40 ROPs. The total VRAM has been adjusted down to 5 GB which runs across a 320-bit interface rather than a 384-bit interface pumping out 240.3 GB/s bandwidth. The clock speeds come as a surprise as they run on the same level as the GeForce GTX Titan, 837 MHz for core and 876 MHz Boost while the memory remains clocked at the reference 6008 MHz effective frequency.

A few weeks ago, it was reported that NVIDIA could possibly be working on a second variant of their GeForce GTX Titan GPU or a cut down version to be precise. Sweclockers managed to find out the codename of this new GPU through HWInfo’s newly added database entries which is to be called GeForce GTX Titan LE.

NVIDIA Readies Cheaper GeForce GTX Titan LE GPU

As speculated earlier, the GeForce GTX Titan LE would be a cheaper variant to the original GeForce GTX Titan. However, it would feature cut down specifications such as 13 SMX units enabled on the GK110 GPU which would give 2496 cores which is still much higher than the GeForce GTX 680′s 1536 cores but lower than the GeForce GTX Titan’s 2688 Cores. The GeForce GTX Titan LE  would feature a 5 GB GDDR5 memory running across a 320-bit interface compared to 6 GB GDDR5 (384-bit) on the faster GeForce GTX Titan.

NVIDIA is expected to launch the GeForce GTX Titan LE with its cut down version of the GK110 GPU in Q3 2013 possibly in July or August. The price factor would be a major decision with this part since while the original GeForce GTX Titan was without a doubt a great card, its cost angered many consumers yet was still able to sell like hot cakes. If NVIDIA can manage a price point of around $649-$749 than the LE model could definitely become a bigger hit than its bigger brother. Moreover,with a little overclock can end up users with performance on par with the GTX Titan as GTX 670 users got almost the same level of performance as the GTX 680 with small overclocks.

NVIDIA, today officially introduced their new GeForce 700M Series graphics processing units which are based on the Kepler GK 107/106 architecture. The new GeForce 700M series GPUs combine GPU Boost 2.0, GeForce Experience, and NVIDIA Optimus technology to deliver greater and seamless performance to notebook users.

The NVIDIA GeForce 700M Series GPU Lineup

NVIDIA has launched a total of four new GeForce 700M series parts, all of which are currently entry level models and that could be noted since they are being compared against an Intel HD 4000 IGP, however this gives a clear hint that NVIDIA would be launching the faster GeForce GTX 780M and GTX 770M in the near future. Details and specifications are mentioned below:
