 |  Nvidia: Current Flagship “G92” Graphics Processor to Live for Another 6-12 Month Nvidia Corp. said at a conference that its current-generation code-named G92 graphics processing unit (GPU) that already powers seven GeForce products will stay on the market for another 6 – 12 months, which means that the chip itself will have a lifespan of about 1.5 years, an unprecedented amount of time. Nvidia’s claims may reflect the company’s vision of the market and may be a signal for action to ATI, graphics product group of Advanced Micro Devices. Michael Hara, vice president of investor relations at Nvidia said during JP Morgan technology conference that Nvidia G92 (and presumably G92b, a 55nm die shrink of the G92) will have “a lifecycle of another 6-8 to 12 months”, which means that graphics cards like GeForce 9800 GTX will remain on the market till May, 2009, depending on exact plans of Nvidia. http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/video/d...hics_Chip.html
