Windows 7 DX11 Cards from Nvidia not that far from release?

Taken from Guru3d news:

Microsoft released an new WHQL driver and for whatever reason it hold all kind of entries on the new GT300 based DX11 GPUs from NVIDIA.
Here's what you'll spot in the driver .inf files within the new 300 series:
NVIDIA_DEV.0A29.01 = "NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M"
NVIDIA_DEV.0A2B.01 = "NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M "
NVIDIA_DEV.0A66.01 = "NVIDIA GeForce 310"
NVIDIA_DEV.0A6E.01 = "NVIDIA GeForce 305M"
NVIDIA_DEV.0A75.01 = "NVIDIA GeForce 310M"
NVIDIA_DEV.0CAF.01 = "NVIDIA GeForce GT 335M"
NVIDIA_DEV.0CB0.01 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTS 350M"
NVIDIA_DEV.0CB1.01 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTS 360M"


M are of course the mobile parts, and the GeForce 310 a low-end part. But yeah, looks like NVIDIA's DX11 technology is closer than we all think it is.

Figured as much.. There's no way nVidia was just going to sit back and let AMD/ATI release their cards with no competition..
