Rumors are rampant that Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 Ti, the next breakthrough in the field of computing, will be unveiled in 2016. According to Breathecast, the forthcoming Enthusiast Graphics Card was originally scheduled to release this month. Speculations then evolved, pointing another launch to happen in February next year. Alleged bottlenecks in the production process continue to hamper its arrival, pushing the release further.

"According to earlier reports this GPU was originally scheduled to debut on 28nm sometime this year with a 16nm shrink in 2015. A leak later reaffirmed by semiaccurate. Reports had us believe that the 28nm GM200 GPU would debut soon after GM204, but that didn't happen. Nvidia's plan for 16nm GPUs was pretty much the same plan for GM204, which is to introduce the new products in the holiday season. The most profitable season typically in the semiconductor industry and many others," WCCF Tech author Khalid Moammer wrote, as cited by Breathecast.

Game Debate shared that the card has been built with the second version of Maxwell Architecture and a 28nm technology. The site adds that an 'extremely large' L2 Cache was integrated along with the Third Generation Delta Color Compression. This makes the upcoming graphic card a powerful one by keeping the formidable performance intact on top of comparatively small memory data transfer rates. It is also expected that the energy-efficient card will outdo GTX 780 with 30 percent more power.

"The Second Revision of Maxwell also adds VXGI (Voxel Global Illumination) which makes scenes significantly more lifelike and believable as light interacts more realistically in the game environment and the MFAA technology which provides the same effect as MSAA but at a much lower performance cost," the site adds. Interestingly, the site listed January 2015 as Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 Ti's release. However, this is yet to be corroborated. While users wait, they can make themselves busy by preparing a superior processor to have the card work properly—perhaps, an Intel Core i7 Quad Core/AMD FX Eight Core and RAM no less than 12GB. And while on that, hey can also gear up for the purported $699 price tag.
