Nvidia should have its 55nm chips ready in Q2, and this time we got an even more precise date than just a quarter. When a company says it launches something in Q2, we always hope for early Q2; but in reality it always comes at the end of the quarter.

Nvidia won't make an exception, as its 55nm parts should launch around June time, which is the last month of the quarter. As of today, Nvidia's 55nm chip looks like an advanced and die shrunk version of its well-known G92 chip, but we are still missing many details about it.

At least Nvidia can show the world that it can do it, but we won’t miss the chance to remind you that this will occur more than six months after ATI managed to launch its first 55nm chip. In the meantime, all ATI chips are 55nm, while Nvidia is still at 65nm.
