Alot of hogwarsh by: Anonymous on 9/9/2009
NVIDIA is notorious for creating hippy hype to fight and steal the thunder from ATI Launches.

Bottom line, nobody's gonna wait for NVIDIA's launch if ATI comes out with another winner this month. Buy NVIDIA low and sell HIGH cuz it looks to take a smash in the mouth.

Let's see an Shamino'd EVGA ATI 5000 series card at launch!

We can discuss all the way we want, but the fact of the matter is that nVidia, AMD and Intel are creating hardware that is changing the world for good.

ATI made a great push towards games performance with 4800 series, but GF8 was a game changer or game creator for GPGPU push.

When it comes to naming conventions, don't see the point of writing nVidia in all caps. Then again, we just might start doing that. Or writing Nvidia. Or nVIDIA, as I used to write in the old magazines...

But your comments are appreciated, as always... ;)

ECC? by: Anonymous on 8/29/2009
"For example, GDDR5 was the first generation of graphics memory interface to include any error detection at all (note that we are discussing errors on the GDDR5 bus itself, and not in the DRAM) [1]. Almost every other high speed signaling interface (>2GT/s) in the PC had comprehensive error detection and retry – PCI-Express, QuickPath nee CSI, HyperTransport, Fully Buffered DIMMs, etc."

The linked article is trying to push for ECC for the DRAM and not just the interface. So you know the data was transferred correctly over the bus but do you know if it is written/read correctly?

So the Radeons with GDDR5 all have the ECC features linked article already?!!
nVidia by: Anonymous on 8/29/2009
It is sad to see one of the most well known IT journalists still insist on writing nVidia, instead of the proper NVIDIA. 1997 is way past, Theo..ç
Funny you say that... by: Anonymous on 8/29/2009
because ATI's drivers have never been ready on card release either...

but then again, when you buy a card (ATI) that uses driver level profiling to inhibit the full performance in games due to a reference design flaw (due to being cheap) that causes the GPU to be starved of power.... well what do you know...

Hell, even the 4670 runs many games faster simply by renaming the games executable.

we may see GT300 this year after all.
Just another spoiler by: Anonymous on 8/28/2009
Just another spoiler from the company that has FUD, lies, and "leaked" powerpoint slides when they have nothing but old chips to rename.

ATI had a demo by: Anonymous on 8/28/2009
ATI made a demo for the HD4 series. Froblins!!
It showcased tessellation and some other stuff with frog people.
No surprise by: Anonymous on 8/28/2009
After all the rumors of delay, and the hurry up to make a handful of cards, and now the drivers arent even ready, itll be interesting if nVidia even has the witheral to upset ATIs launch, even with a demo
