....TELLS ME that Nvidia anticipates it will ship around 100,000 GeForce FX boards worldwide between now and May.That's the period it has arranged for a third party contractor to make the boards to keep the quality high, she said.
And she whispered marchitecture names that Nvidia has hit on – the Ultra 5400 for the NV31 and the Ultra 5600 for the NV34 are the favorites round about now

It is the inquirer ....but if true the nv31 and nv34 are nothing to be scoffed at eh?

Unlike xbitlabs which reckoned nv31 to be a 4X1 architecture....

Maybe... But someone always seems to scoff anyway right?;)
It'll be interesting to see what happens over @ rage3d forums when the FX finally makes it out the door...

Most people that have any clue about video cards are expecting the FX to be faster than the 9700, so don't think people are going to start bawling when they see the FX perform higher. Actually I'm sure they will be anxious that the FX comes out knowing that not much later the R350 will arrive.

Now Nvidia is namecalling?? ...Things are hard enough without some of the partners behaving like wayward little boys, she reckoned.

Nvidia seems pretty paranoid.....Blaming everyone but themselves for this horribly delayed card...

Denial is NOT a river in Africa:D

The NV34 is a low-end apart and they won't name it "5600" if the NV31 is "5400". If anything it'll be the other way round. I'd expect an "Ultra" and "non-Ultra" version of each part (at least) too.
