Jealousy is such a sad, sad thing. 11k posts and you still don't get it. Oh well.

Benchmarks when I get back tomorrow, at least from my perspective. NDA is lifted at 6am, so expect a flood from the hardware sites, too.

lol, who says I was jealous (or that I fail to "get" something)? I was just handing you a cookie, as is the standard response around here. :p

I was there for about 30 minutes. Too bad this was on a weekday, as I had a couple of meetings today. Picked up my BF2 tho, although I was dissapointed that the tshirt was not in the goodie bag. I bet the lan was a blast....

heh. Rollo knows where to find me. The question is, however, if he will. ;)

Reception starts in about half an hour, but I hear the LAN party going on loud and clear, too. They're in the midst of the BF2 tourney at the moment, from what I can tell.

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.

Pacific Time is 3 hours behind of Eastern Time. So 6am PST = 9am EST.

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

Ronin, can you post a subjective evaluation of how the 7800 cards feel and maybe a little about why a 6800GT owner would want to upgrade to one? Thanks.

Tomorrow. I'm still unable to post anything in reference to NDA based knowledge.

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

Im 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 :p

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

The length of his penis, nVidia is designing it for him

:p

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...
