Nvidia: The Power of 3--August 11 release date

Yeah, Ronin is right. However i have heard that even though Power Of 3 has nothing to do with graphics card launches it just so happens that they are launching the GT that day. BUt as he said, it isn't part of the power of 3.

(Btw: Ronin, i do trust you, but i think some new cards might be released as well)

The 7800GT launch has nothing to do with the Power of 3, no matter how many people try to lump it together. They are not one and the same.

Stop lying to anandtech and tell us the truth.


Guess you'll find out tomorrow, won't you?
 
lol, now to see what this whole "power of 3" is all about...lol, we should countdown

0 days, 3 hours, and 5 mins remaining

Uh... im not stupid. How was i posting here all along if i never saw it? Think before you post!

It is the 11th here on the east coast. THe countdowon just disappears, and it says "On August 11th Nvidia will release the power of 3".

ROFL That nvidia banner dashed all my expectations of a link to a page showing the new videocards or something.

That was quite uneventful! 😛

that doesnt sound good.

So its just "ha, we're better because we have HDR, SM3, and sli!"?

isn't HDR on sm2 as well? isn't crossfire coming out soon...ok, they dont have sm3...

So this is great...yeah...so its just "get a card with SM3 because its not old?"

I'm a fan of SM3...but this is an uber disappointment IF this is true.

And that whole "vote for your favorite nvidia woman thingy" (in the original Po3 post)...yeah...did we get screwed over? so what was the timer for then...
GAH this is confusing.

Sorry for making a new thread. I thought it'd be nice to not be on the 10th page when i put up that link which kinda confirms no new cards...i haven't seen the link before, but i haven't looked, so flame me if its been posted, please. 😀
 
its great how the author says "i have been told...", by whom exactly? maybe nvidia will update their site on August 11th, Pacific Time? Just reaching... and hoping for something better than hdr, sm3, and sli as the power of three
 
i guess its safe to say its not three pci express X16 ability. you could do it but you would just be dividing the bus even further and you would get little to no improvement from the 3rd card.
 
looking on other forum people are speculating that they may release a card with 3 cores on it. its unlikly but i wish someone would straighten this out. i guess the news will be out by the time its 12:00 am at the nvidia site in california. for all you east coasters like me thats 3 am so 36 minutes to go
