Yep, they're real, just as we've been saying .
High-end info should be forthcoming.

According to the codenames, this isn't G92. It's some kind of G80 revision.I find it odd they are naming it an 8800GT if the chip is really a G92. I would think a 9800GTX and a 9800GT would be more appropriate.
looks cute.
Anyone have any sources to back this up?

And that 147W seems high. It's too close to the limit, it wouldn't get clean power delivery (75W slot + 75W six-pin). Plus these seem like they'd draw less power than the current 8800GTS, which also has a single PCIe connector for power.
Top line: G80-100, G80-101It is G92
That bar with the 147W info stretches across the entire chart.And that 147W is for all the 90nm GTS SKU's, not the 65nm 8800 GT. According to Fudo the GT pulls 110W.
It seems that Nvidia is planning another GeForce 8800 GTS SKU with more stream processors. This is to widen the performance gap between the upcoming 8800 GT and 8800 GTS as 8800 GT is coming too close and it might hurt the sales of 8800 GTS. As such, the number of stream processors is increased from 96 to 112 while the rest of the specs like 500/800 core/mem clock, 320-bit memory interface, 640MB GDDR3 memories remain unchanged. There is also an interesting side note that NVIDIA will NOT be doing any formal launch activities, press announcements, website updates, or any other marketing around this new sku. Partners can conduct their own marketing activities around the sku as they see fit.
We heard the overclocking headroom for GeForce 8800 GT is pretty impressive mainly due to the finer 65nm process technology. However, Nvidia has purposely limits the core clock at 600MHz so its performance won't get too close to the GeForce 8800 GTS thereby hurt its sales. However, users can still choose to overclock the core and we should be seeing more than 700MHz easily. However, if Radeon HD 2950PRO performance comes too close for comfort, Nvidia might increase the core clock further.
anybody have any idea how these new cards are gonna perform?
More details have popped up and we learned that GeForce 8800 GT (G92) will be clocked at 600MHz core and 1.8GHz memory. However Nvidia might still further increase the core clock depending on how Radeon 2950PRO performs. The reference score provided by Nvidia to the partners is 10.8K in 3DMark06 or to be exact 10769. The launch date is said to be brought forward to October 29th. Mobile101 has a photo of the 8800 GT card even and it is a single slot solution as we have been telling you.

...this new 8800 GTS, will perform very close to the GTX. The 8800 GT should be very close to existing 8800 GTS, in performance...We may see a 8800 GTS 320, for no more than $200-220 very soon...
also, whats with the lack of a name change, its hard enough to distinguish the difference between the 2 8800GTS without having to add the fact that there is a new 8800GTS G92.
wow, that is some good news, might as well sell my 8600GTS and buy a new 8800GTS 320 (old one) when the 8800GTS is released (the new one).
YAY legless MoH: Airborne here i come
-EDIT- the score in 3Dmark06 is 10769, what resolution was this set at?
Hmm, I was expecting some sources, but those are just sites stating rumors.
Personally, Im going to wait until their next trade show before I belive any new products. VRzone tends to post up total and complete BS and everyone else likes to reference VRzone as a reliable source.
Actually, let me correct what I said before. I said it wrong. The 8800 GTS 320 will settle at $250, but the true $200-220, will be the new 8800 GT. Performance between the two, should be better for the GTS 320, but the overclocking potential of the 8800 GT, will shorten that gap.
Only when NVIDIA is ready to phase out the GTS 320 model, and replace it, with a new chip, powered by G90/G92, will we see a more significant price drop.
I wonder if it will be worth it to step-up from an 8800 GTS 640 to the new top model GTS with more stream processors.
All of those "sources" lead back to one place, http://www.mobile01.com/topicdetail.php?f=298&t=413501
Also, anyone else think the color of this photo looks really off on the black/white part?

The white of the heat sync looks too pure white. Looks like a rendering.
in the 3 pics we see, the headon, rear and lower angle, the angled one, the white design on the heatsink looks photochoped.

any word on theactual cost of 1 of these 8800GT's
Also, green PCB's FTL... everyone knows a black PCB is good for at least 1000 points in 3DMark06.
