I haven't been following GPU news, so hadn't been following the progression from Fermi to Kepler to Maxwell, as usually an expensive card is the first one out. I didn't catch atom's use of the word "budget," so didn't realize that is just a $100 item.
(I also hadn't noticed that v1.21 is out, either, and that atom wrote a lot about NVIDIA catching up to AMD.)
But the GTX 750 is sort of a low-end card, even though it has more CUDA cores than my card, and runs twice as fast, yet takes a fraction of the power. Will there be a card with a lot more cores than the 750? That would be the one to buy. (Imagine one NVIDIA card with the power of 4 AMDs <grin>.)
Would that be the rumored GTX 870 and GTX 880?
