Guys over at XS all seem to think its fake as well. Why would Tulipgtx waste a bunch of time faking benchmarks on unreleased products. SO DUMB.

i have no idea what her motivation is

... but i know 12-14 year old kids with rich parents that don't pay attention to their poor babies so they try to cause "trouble" by messing with adults ... fortunately they usually lack both experience and brains to pull it off.

Sad really .. perhaps they should do something more useful .. like experiment with drugs or take their bikes and play 'chicken' with a train.

Chivarly? Hardly, I don't believe this is real either but just because of that you don't have to act like a total asshat and flaming her isn't making this thread any bit better either.

In any case, why does the screenshot look like their are 2 GPU-Z windows open and the one on top where it says DirectX Support; its disfigured :< Also same with the actual appears/style of the XP layout; it looks terrible too, unless mspaint ruins the gradient effects of it too.

Just because you don't believe the information she was providing doesn't mean you have to take it out on her.

Wait a minute... If someone is lying to you, who are you supposed to take it out on? That just doesn't make sense.

When your girlfriend/fiancee/wife get into an argument and you believe she is lying or that you are more correct do you start acting like an utter douchebag and flame her because of that?

What that have to do with anything?
:confused:

we have someone we don't know making outrageous claims with a story that doesn't add up with dubious pics that could be made anywhere
- and can't answer or back up any claims?

You can *believe* all you want ... i remain skeptical .

What if GPU-Z has no idea how to read the card? GPU-Z doesn't even work unless you have nV drivers installed does it? Crappy pre-release drivers drivers...

This is actually all pretty easy to prove/disprove.

If Tulip sends me an email from work, I'll know if it's from XFX as I've corresponded with them before.

My GMail account is bjks12@gmail.com Tulip, look forward to hearing from you.

Or, if Tulip joins at nZone or SLiZone and posts, I can an IP search and find out where she's from.

No offense but you are obviously mistaken me for someone who gives a damm about your approval - like many others here :)

Forums are meant for discussion that contains both facts and rumours - not whether the poster is real or fake- How many rumours we see everyday? some of them are squashed and some aren't. Everything unless came from the official source is considered as rumour.

If you want facts - you wait for the press release.

1. Many people have debated in Tulip's controversial threads the authenticity of "her" information. It would seem many, if not you, desire to know and I'm in a position to tell them.


2. Tulip "herself" asked me in a PM if I would check with NVIDIA if she supplied me with employee information in a PM. So apparently "she" wishes to be verified.

Check that link, that's how famous Tulip got :p That german website is pretty big btw, I use them a lot for hardware/game news.

Here's a translation

"In the forum of AnandTech the user "TulipGTX" linked a picture that allegedly a GPU z Screenshot and a 3DMark 06-Wert of the new GT200-GPU von Nvidia shows. The new diagram map is to reach 16,646 points in the 3DMark 06 - and this with incomplete drivers and with a dissolution of 2560x1600 pixels, how it is usual with 30 tariff LCDs. Allegedly points with final drivers are to be expected even up to 21.000."

That just shows how famous *we* are :)


it all makes no sense ... it appears to be a complex "set up"

and now TulipGTX is communicating by PM with the "enemy" [nvRollo] so AS to get fired?
-WtF?
:confused:

You guys like speculation ... try THIS :
Perhaps Tulip is 'setting up' someone who works for XFX, India to be fired ... she is jealous perhaps - a rival in love need 'elimination' - or revenge?
:Q

this is waaaay better than ANY "Soap" opera on TV
:thumbsup:

Why don't you just have her fax a picture of herself in the lab at XFX, a copy of her paycheck stub, and a sworn statement that she's a corporate spy to NVIDIA? I'm guessing that even as careless as she is, she doesn't actually want to get caught. ;)

i don't think you caught it :p

she evidently PM'med [nv]Rollo with *more details* than she posted here and basically DARED him to report her

2. Tulip "herself" asked me in a PM if I would check with NVIDIA if she supplied me with employee information in a PM. So apparently "she" wishes to be verified.

think about it
