Some interesting articles :)

G80 and the unified shader approach
http://www.techspot.com/news/18126-nvidia-g80-uses-unified-shader-approach.html

Older article, predicting G80 will be out in April
http://www.techspot.com/news/20331-details-on-nvidia-g80-gpu.html

Article saying the G80 GPUs will probably be delayed, or have been [probably delayed], rather.

Article saying the G80 may release around the same time of ATIs new card
http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=30624

More detailed G80 info., along with R600 info

Any more links, comments, etc? One article was saying the G80 would be Dx10 compatible but wouldn't be built "from the ground up" for Dx10.

I'm looking forward to some DX10 loving. Sure my 7800gtx is nice but DX10 looks too amazing to let pass me by

bet NV's dx10 is going to be buggy just like dx9 in the 5xxx series. i could be proven wrong though. reading thru all the info i cannot seem to find the release timeframe for g80(better yet g71 with DX10).
