Nvidia 780i, 8800GTS 512MB delays


As I previously reported, Nvidia is having problems with 45nm CPUs on 680i motherboards, that also affected the 780i, which is the same chipset plus the NF200 bridge to provide PCIe 2.0 support.
Nvidia had to respin the chipset before it could use it on the new boards. Previous 680i boards most certainly won't support 45nm CPUs and let's wait to see if this also affects other chipsets of the 600i line.
The new date for launch is December 11th, if nothing goes wrong again.

The 8800GTS 512MB, based on the G92, but sporting 128 shader processors was expected to debut on December 3rd but is now coming out in the 17th.

These delays also affect the official launch of Triple-SLI.
