GeForce GTX 590 Release Date Pushed Back to March 24th

geforce-gtx-590-release-date-pushed-back-to-march-24th

Click here to see the reviews of the GeForce GTX 590 *Updated*


We all have been waiting for the release of Nvidia’s flagship Fermi Model, the GTX 590. We have witnessed multiple delays at this point, and now we will witness one more. The GTX 590 will be released on March 24th now, so those of you who wanted to get your hands on this card will have to wait a little longer.

As we know, only Asus and EVGA will be the makers of this card in the USA. In other countries, this may not be the case.

GTX590 Release Date

Nvidia has employed a dual vapor chamber cooling solution with a single fan in the middle. In an uncommon move by Nvidia, the top of the card is removable, so that everything can be cleaned easily. Both GPUs will be on a single 12 layer 2oz PCB Board and will be downclocked. This will effectively lower power requirements, as well as heat produced by the unit. This unit will have the usual high end features – three DVI Outputs, 3D Vision Support, etc. Just like AMD’s 6990, you will need at least a 750w power supply to run this card. I would recommend that you have a power supply that is at least 80+ Plus Bronze.

Expect to see Nvidia face similar driver issues for a little while they work to get the kinks out. Just like AMD, both companies are surely rushing their product out.

Let’s hope NVidia is able to overcome the woes that is evident in AMD’s 6990. If Nvidia does, you will be sure to find a GTX 590 Review from us over here at Geek Montage.

And yes, the price is still unknown. A good rule of thumb is to take AMD’s price and add a little bit more to it.

Interestingly enough, Nvidia has just come out with a teaser video for a mystery announcement. You will be able to find what is in the “hidden box” within the next few days. I know I am wondering! Could it be the GTX590 or the GTX 600 series? I think so.

The official price of this card will be $699. This will allow it to be competitive with the 6990.
