More details have emerged on Nvidia’s upcoming 20nm Maxwell GPUs which will form the new GTX 800 series, however, as always these are very premature and somewhat vague details. As a result we encourage readers to remember they could be untrue, inaccurate or subject to change. The GM204 is the part in question and GM204 is believed to be the direct successor to the GK104 Kepler GPU that currently makes up the GTX 770, GTX 760, GTX 680, GTX 670 and GTX 660 Ti. Like GK104 the GM204 makes use of a 256 bit wide memory bus which also implies the card will come as standard with 2GB of GDDR5 VRAM with an option for 4GB models if Nvidia vendors choose to double up. We’ve also heard about the existence of the flagship GM210 GPU which will succeed the GK110 GPU, GM210. As a result we expect the GM210 to lead the top of the GTX 800 series (for example the GTX 890, GTX 880 Ti, GTX 880), while the GM204 GPU will likely make up the mid-range (GTX 870, GTX 860 Ti, GTX 860). Speculation suggests that it is possible the GM204 GPU may use Maxwell architecture but make use of the 28nm process to keep the costs down, this leads to further logical reinforcement that GM204 will be a mid-range Maxwell GPU.
