I will say one thing. If Pure Video is important to you, that could be a valid reason right there.

Purevideo was the reason why I returned my 6800 last year, so this is a compelling reason (if it works).

Originally posted by: GamingphreekIm only 17... so the woman wouldn't be there that early in the first place. I dont normally but Video Card launches, well there always fun

Other than that, i would be outside pitching, or doing other stuff.

Ahh, gotcha. Well, being a growing young lad still then you need your sleep more than you need to read reviews as soon as they hit the net.

Seriously. The new 7800GTX, GT and 7800 plain. They are unveiling its specs and letting ppl benchmark and stuff. Thats what the NDA is for.

i thought those specs were already out, maybe it was speculation...

Oh those were rumours and speculation, but they might still prove to be right, we wont know, only a few hours left to go.

There's a new video card coming out? Who'da thunk it.....?

 

[PhlashFoto]

Keys, It has only been over a year (April '04) since the last new nVidia cards were out! ie. 6800 series


I was getting bored without a new release

EDIT: Fixed year.

The 6800 series came out in 94? Wow. I'm surprised Doom looked as pixely as it did back then.

So what is that EST then? In otherwords, should i go to sleep tonight and wake up early or stay up late and sleep in. Im in Virginia.

You've got to be kidding... You'd wake up early to read reviews? You need a woman, badly.

QFT

 

[yekim]

Anyone know (heard rumors) when they'll release a plain old <$600 7800GT?

QFU = Quoted for uselessness.

 

[TraumaRN]

I'm actually fairly bummed out....I was hoping to be up early to read the reviews and benchmarks considering I'm hopefully going to be upgrading in August/Sept, but instead.....I have to have my work physical whichs makes blood draw, urine drug screen....turn your head and cough and that kinda crap....the things I do for a good job at a good hospital......but the money will be music to me when I want to upgrade in a couple months

lol, how bad is it when we're referring to cards under $600 as "plain (old)"?

 

[imported_Gorath]

So if the NDA doesn't expire until 06:00 PDT, why are all these vendors selling the product, and why has TomsHardware posted the specs?

Don't post links to evil sites like that pls. :Q

 

[slash196]

Why does the damn NDA expiration keep moving forward? First it was on the 21st, and then it was 2am on the 22nd, and now it's 6 AM? I thought this crap was in writing!

My thoughts exactly

 

[slash196]

Ronin, if you're still there, check with that goddamn nVidia rep. Did he say 6 AM or just "6"?

I'll find him before we head back to the hotel and get a clarification. I've got inet access in my hotel room, so I can post from there.

That would be great !

I think that some of you guys need to take a vacation from your computers. If you are experiencing real life anxiety over the delay of the NDA expiration you have some issues to grapple with.

 

[slash196]

Yeah, but hey, right now I've got nothing else to do...and what if Christmas was continually bumped back? Even if you knew you weren't getting anything, it would still tick you off. And besides, you're one to talk, mister "Lifer" ....

 

[nitromullet]

It is kinda wierd that the cards are for sale before the NDA has even been officially lifted.

No one can accuse nV of a paper launch this time. Cards for sale at Newegg before they are released. Wow!

This was an interesting tidbit from the THD article:

Core clock/ memory clock: 430 MHz/600 MHz with support for overclocking

I wonder what sort of "support for overclocking" will be available...

Look at my join date and my PPD. I post on average only 7 times a day. Yeah, I have issues.
