Where is the new GTX 295?
 

Forgive me if this has been asked but I've been hearing that the single PCB GTX 295 was supposed to be out by the end of May, but I haven't heard anything about it lately. Has it been delayed?

no they are working on putting 2 gtx 295s together...

ja but the single will come this summer.

The single PCB is supposed to be no different spec-wise. But I'm wondering if there will be a difference in price?

Yeah it has been delayed, but single PCB should be out soon, Computex starts this Tuesday so I would expect concrete information on availability there.

As far as the 295 mars, it's not two 295s, just two 2GB 285s, being better than what is essentially two 275s in a regular 295.

The price should be the same, maybe a little lower, but remember Nvidia's motive for creating this card in the first place is to actually make a profit on the 295. Nvidia is lowering cost on their end by making it single pcb, I doubt they will pass that on to the consumer because it would make the entire project pointless.

Anyone else thing the heatsink looks a little poorly designed? I guess it will be decent but do you think it's a worse cooling solution than the dual-PCB 295?

I think it fine, some of the hot air will be dumped into the case however, but the larger fan will allow more airflow and less noise :)
