More info about Nvidia and Pascal. It's funny how not too long ago it was all about AMD rumors, and now it's always Nvidia. Anyway, I would label these two bits one as a rumor and the other one as legit info.

The rumors regarding NVIDIA’s next generation Pascal GPUs are getting hotter by the minute as launch closes in. The latest reports from HWBattle on the Pascal gaming cards suggest that NVIDIA will not only have two but three new SKUs based on their Pascal GP104 chip which was leaked last week. Each SKU will be significantly faster than their Maxwell based predecessors and offer gamers faster FPS and better features in the upcoming AAA titles.

NVIDIA Geforce GTX 980Ti	>>	GP 104-400	Reference -> AIB	early June
NVIDIA Geforce GTX 980	>>	GP 104-200	Reference -> AIB	early June

The leaker is not certain when exactly will this event take place, nor we are told if the launch will be a public event. The event might just as well be the so-called Editor’s Day, which often takes place before sending press samples for reviews. So this event is more like a briefing for editors. That said, if you are expecting Jen-Hsun to show his new leather jacket during live webcast, then you might be disappointed.

I can’t be quite time-specific, but one thing is certain – the launch is approaching , since Nvidia already sends out invitations to the press presentation of the new cards. Reviews and all the information comes in three (maximum four) weeks. — PCTuning (Google Translation).

Although we are not certain when will this event take place, we are told that reviews should be posted in ‘maximum four weeks’. That would be two weeks before Computex.

>>To me, the original source looks like saying that reviews will come in 3-4 weeks after the press presentation which we still don't know when it will be. I don't agree wit hthe article's conclusion that we'll see reviews in 3-4 weeks from now.
