    8600/8500 reviews?

    They were expecting what Nvidia delivered in the past two generations, double performance leap (or as fast as previous high-end) which wasnt too much. I guess its the shortcoming of delivering two outstanding cards (6600GT:7600GT) and then following them up with a lukewarm response. Just by...

    8600/8500 reviews?

    Thing is that the 7600GT is in a completely different price bracket. The 8600GTS provides a gain of 35-40% over it and yet costs almost twice as much. That is the reason why reviewers across the board are knocking it performance and its value proposition. If you look at the previous midrange...

    8600/8500 reviews?

    128b killed it, really. To the ones who kept preaching that it'll be faster than a 7900GTX, sweet dreams! :laugh:

    All AMD R6xx chips are 65 nanometre chips, now

    Yes. TUL to be exact. :laugh: Tweaktown guys suck at Photoshop. The cooler looks exactly like the 8800GTX cooler, only the PCB looks shorter. I dont know see anything abnormal or important that AMD was so inclined on keeping the it a secret at CeBIT.

    What happened to Dailytech?

    They have gotten extremely stale lately. Their R600 story was a rehash of the vrzone, inq rumors, their RV630 & RV610 was a rehash of the hkepc leak, their 8600GTS/GT story was a rehash from vrzone. Their last original news or article they broke was before the G80 launch. For the above...

    New 8600 GT/GTS photos + info

    http://www.vr-zone.com/?i=4775 Thats less than what a 7900GTX scores. Factor in AA at 12x10 and it'll be trailing even more. In one word: disappointing. Going with 256-bit would have given them three advantages a) Cooling. Dont need 1GHz memory to get 30+GB per sec. b) Price. They could...

    New 8600 GT/GTS photos + info

    Agreed but I'd compare it to the 320 GTS. 128-bit memory at 1GHz will be 32GB/sec. Very disappointing as its not even upto 7950GT, forget beating 7900GTX. I will either get a 320 GTS in July or look at AMD's offerings in a similar price range.

    R600 delays point to problems

    It took you 3 tries to comprehend the fact that you have no ground to stand on and should start to retreat now. TROLL: 0 FACTS: 1 Direct from Nvidia equals CC. I have never seen any company mention their finacials/revenue percentage from specific products at any other events. Only a fool...

    R600 delays point to problems

    I have already stated that the figure is mentioned in the Nvidia's latest CC. You have to listen to it as it was stated in a Q&A session. Your repeated attempts to ignore this simple peice of information suggests a lot about your take on things. You are here simply to spin your arguments. First...

    *Strange* ... you are still with us... in video ... ... in this place :P Funny attempt failed completely. :P I never proved you were spreading FUD, did I? If I come across such an occasion and see that no one has responded to it, I'll gladly do the honors. ;)
