Still a rumor (actually mostly silence) but with AMD delaying until 2013Q4 and the discrete AIB market decreasing I don't see why Nvidia would want to spend money they might not recover.

This link: http://wccftech.com/nvidia-roadmap-c...rives-1h-2013/ states that Nvidia would refresh Kepler in 1H2013 but unless we start to here some rumors of new silicon by the end of March I don't see that happening.

I could be wrong, but I don't think Nvidia has officially stated that Maxwell would be on 20nm.

Hm cheers I never realised that. Still there is a chance of something in-between like AMD appear to be going for. Almost suicide of them to wait that long surely, I'm certainly thinking Maxwell (or more to the point 20nm) is more end of 2014 than start.

That's a good point, but based on the huge projected perf/watt gains it's the only thing that makes sense.

Clarification: it was probably the initial plan, but I'm not sure it's the current one, and I don't believe NVIDIA has made any definitive statement either way.
