Good rumor, hope it comes true with no microstutering...
Meh. Nvidia will fire back with the GTX280X2 (what a simple looking name) ...It'll be the biggest hottest card ever released.

they can't release it with their current core.. they'd need a die shrink first.. so don't count on that for a bit

There will come a day, such a day when all will be told more than they wish to know, what one hears may explain the past, it may explain the future, but it has never made a difference either way and it will change nothing. Some day.... But that is not this day, and I don't know when, I just don't know.

Nvidia has problems of their own right now.
