Fermi is KING by: Anonymous on 1/26/2010
I have seen the benchmarks, and although the grey screening, enable CCC overclock to hope to stop crashing, microstuttering, 1 to 5fps VRM downclocking in heavy gaming ati red rooster fan boys don't want to admit it, FERMI has already kicked their bleep! in the red, half the time dead, ati roto rooter.
It's funny how the raging reds cards have so many problems - artifacts, scanline grey screens, overheating cheapo vrms that should have been 45's not 40's, driver problems, incapable of running pathetic half or quarter enabled DX11 games at no lag fps - it just goes on and on and on.
I will NOT be buying an ATI card - no way, no how, no no no.
I will however wait and see if Nvidia's totally new SCALABLE shader architecture has as good drivers as Nvidia has always delivered for us for the last number years - far above and beyond ati's pathetic barebones team (when you're losing billions you can't pay for enough coders on driver TEAMS!)
Enjoy your cards ati fans, in between all the endless hassles - without PhysX, no decent Dx11 tesselation, no Cuda, not good in video manipulation, and no free ray tracing cars ! BWHAHAHHHA Beaten in folding - L O S E R !
Why is anyone a red fan ? I guess they grind deep down inside with a communist styled HATRED for the big green winning, profitable, flexible, super top, high end NVIDIA !
Great job nvidia, even your reps and spokespeople are SUPREMELY PROFESSIONAL compared to the lowlife ati smarm mouths I've seen "representing" on the web.
All ati does is WHINE about nvidia, and now they're going to get their butts kicked AGAIN, with a totally new modular architecture that is just AWESOME, and just STOMPS the 5000 series into the dirt.
Hello DX11 MASSIVE TESSELATION AND 32XMSAA !!!!
Thank you nvidia !
Fermi to Launch with Duke Nuke'em Forever.... by: Anonymous on 1/10/2010
LOL. Nvidia. when you have something. Lets talk.

Nvidia is funny. Nvidia drones come on here to sling their propaganda.

nvidia pays off TSMC to sand bag production of AMD's DX11 parts.

Nividia's arrogance is underscored by inventing such hits as "the wheel" aka Scan Line Interleaving coated with special sauces, thus we call it Scalable Link hInterface.

I'm really tired of this ghey company. do something good and I'll appreciate it.

Nvidia's a company that's been drink'n too much of its own koolaid.
Fermi performance goes out tonight by: Anonymous on 1/10/2010
Tonight at Ces nvidia will give further details on Fermi, and it´s performance vs 5000 Series...
fight? by: Anonymous on 1/10/2010

Single and 5970 is a contradiction of terms “imho”. The 5970 is a dual GPU card, albeit it’s a single "PCB" (that’s printed circuit board if you didn't know) its theoretically 2 cards on 1 PCB. It’s my belief when one uses terms like single and dual when referring to graphics cards, that one is referring to the # of GPU’s on the PCB. If I’m mistaken, please accept my apology Sweetheart.

did you (Greg442) confuse the word card with what we know as a GPU?

It doesn't matter whether you ship a 5970 or a 5770 in terms of market share... except when... by: Anonymous on 1/8/2010
...its the <$200 cards that bring in the most cash. not the $300+ ones. silly boys.
ATi by: Anonymous on 1/8/2010
Fermi (may/june 2010) will have to fight against HD6870 (july/august 2010). And it won't be easy.

ATi has no plans at all for a new GPU or CPU (other than Thubans) in 2010.

what is a "soid"?

FUD anyone? by: Greg442 on 1/8/2010
FUD: Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt. Whenever I read an article and the key qualifiers are terms like "if anything" and "mostly likely" I know the crap is getting deep. “Me thinks” {no that’s not a grammatical error} I need to don my waist-highs for this one. I find it really amusing and somewhat disturbing that the author is either, poorly informed, or intentional being misleading. Nonetheless, let’s take a few minutes to dissect this puppy. Firstly, the quote; {" Even though AMD technically has the fastest single card on earth, the 5970, they still cannot get enough chips in order to make enough cards to satisfy the market to the point where they are actually taking large swaths of market share away from NVidia"}. Hun, the 5970 is a dual GPU... the world’s fastest single GPU is the 5870 which I know without any doubt have been widely available on newegg.com since first week of December 2009, since I drool over it everyday, and go through my little OCD ritual, of do I buy it today, or wait for release of Fermi when 5870’s price should drop. Although I’m firmly on the Red team, secretly I’m cheering for the Green team and Fermi, hoping NVidia “gets her done” soon, on the off chance they just maybe it will be a better buy than the 5000 series from AMD/ATI, and everyday I’m disappointed as Fermi falls further and further behind. As of today I think the scales have solidly tilted towards the Red team with reports from CES computer case vendors that Fermi, aka the “baconator” requires a NVidia approved case, because the darn thing is so hot, also that to run 3 monitors you need 2 cards in SLI (albeit 3D version), no word whether the Green team can compete with AMD/ATI eyefinity (24 monitors) in none 3D arena. Squarely in FUD category is Tesla version being cut down to 448SP, do I dare say it? “if anything” because of heat, lol, there’s much speculation around the web that the GeForce version will not suffer this fate, because there’s no way a castrated GT300 can compete with a full throated 5000 series. So basically all the Green team’s faithful are holding out hope that while the $3000 Tesla at 448SP was neutered, the $600(give or take) GeForce will ship with the full 512SP. I don’t know about you but if I spent 3000 bucks on a GPU and some gamer paid 600 for a better card than I got I’d be pissed!!!! Oak Ridge anyone? However, “most likely” it’ll be several more months before any of these questions are answered definitely. So I guess I should just put myself out of my misery and buy the darn 5870 /sighs

wow it took me a while to figure out that was a cake :D

"...the fight will begin when Fermi comes out..."

What a silly statement, and not at all true. The fight has already begun, and just because nVidia decided to bring a knife to a gun fight doesn't mean that the fight isn't going to happen. You can't make time stand still while you wait for your design and process issues to be resolved. And right now, nVidia is being riddled with holes by AMD, plain and simple.
by: tony v on 1/8/2010
People like myself with GTX 260's or 4870's have no real incentive to upgrade and will only do it right now if they have money to burn.

2 million is a great start for AMD but the fight will begin when Fermi comes out, and there will be clear choices by November of this year when both companies have refreshers out and prices have had a chance to stabalize/drop.
