Expreview has one of the first pictures of the upcoming 55nm GeForce GTX 260 cores on hand today. The core is marked GT200b, so the die will change from the 65nm “G200-103-A2″ to the “G200-103-B2″. The “B” means latest 55nm processing technology, and the picture they have posted shows that the production cycle happened during the 33rd week of this year (August 11th to 17th), only 5 weeks after G200-103-A2 which was manufactured in the 28th week. Looks like NVIDIA has been working on this one for many months.
