On Wednesday, we brought you news of ATI's future mobile graphics solutions . Well according to our source, NVIDIA will be launching GeForce Go 8800 GS in May and GeForce Go 8800 GTX in July to compete against ATi's mobile DX10 M76XT GPU.

GeForce Go GS is pretty interesting as we don't see it on the desktop SKUs yet. Looking at the Device IDs for the desktop G80 SKUs, we saw 0x0191 "NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX" and 0x0193 "NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS" but 0x0190 and 0x0192 are missing. Usually 0x0190 is the most high end SKU so it could be 8800 Ultra and 0x192 could be 8800 GS.

We can expect Nvidia's GeForce Go 8800 GS in May and GeForce Go 8800 GTX in July to compete against ATi's mobile DX10 M76XT GPU. Power-users on laptops will have some great choices available shortly, although perhaps the next area for attention will be the battery no doubt.

I think the next area of attention for GPU's in general should be power efficiency tbh

Exactly, I couldn't agree more. Simply whacking in high-end power hungry GPU's into devices originally intended for mobility without a power cable seems nonsensical to me. Awesome to have though :D

Gonna have to have a car battery or 3 in a back pack to power them otherwise.

well it would be ok if you set the 2d clock lower so that it uses less energy

Most ppl who get these use them at LANs anyways so they will always use a cable. Just easier to take a laptop to a LAN then a PC. Which is why i want a better one.
