Have they switched to 55nm yet? When launched, the GTX 260 and 280 were still using 65nm.

AFAIK, the GTX 295 and 285 are the only ones using 55nm.

Fudzilla - EVGA SuperSuper clocked GTX 260 55nm at 675MHz tested

a easy way to tell:

GTX 260 65nm: memory chips on both sides of the PCB
GTX 260 55nm: memory chips all on one side of the PCB

Yeah, I supposed it's inevitable for NVIDIA to switch to 55nm for the other SKUs as well. Just didn't know they filtered down so fast. What about the GTX 280?

I guess so.. Nope, no news on 55nm GTX280,
there's only 55nm GTX260/285/295 as far as I know

Fast? It should be almost immediate since they are already moving to 55nm chips, there are bound to be chips that didn't make the GTX285 grade.

Well, I expected them to reserve them for a newer model or something.
