great ! so how much 2000 bucks ?

It's more the fabs weren't prepared and Maxwell was designed with 20nm in mind so there is really no way for them to put cards out any time soon . Not if they want decent margins anyway. It's the same reason that Fermi was late. Tho even if 20nm was ready Nvidia probably would have refreshed Kepler anyway (tho it would have been nice if they could have jumped to 20nm with it) so as to get a better ROI off the architecture. They are pretty much locked into a tick tock cycle these days anyway. It's just that they delays in new die stepping has pushed their schedule out quite a bit.

I just hope that they don't have to delay too much for yeilds to improve, I want Maxwell out before The Witcher 3 so I can enjoy that at it's best lol.
