BUddy this is a repost from days ago and consumes about a dozen or so threads on the topic now....

The numbers are skeptical do to unknown methodology, not first hand person benches, used speed of 600/1400 when the final speed is supposedly not set, etc.....I say we all just wait until we see more reviews of final review product in no way are they lies but may not represent the end story...ATI themselves is mum about this final speed and evidently major oEMs still dont have the cards in hand...

I haven't said a word on this yet, but here goes:
Who cares if they are real or not? They are not based off final specs or drivers. We don't even know other system components are being used. The 7800s could be matched with FX57s and the X1800s could be matched with a 2.4ghz Pentium 4.
Everyone just needs to shut up until the cards come out.

I don't understand what you're asking.
I'm happy with my 7800 - I just think it's pointless to argue about benchmarks that may or may not be real on products that haven't even been released, and run on hardware that is unknown.

And you're hoping they're not. Whats the diff? How about we wait and see? Its not as bad as all that. If accurate, worse case scenario is they are on par with the gf7 series.

? Didnt sound like he was hopping on anyone's bandwagon. Do you take it personally because someone doesnt share your tastes in hardware? Thats silly. Do you pick your friends based on what flavor ice cream they like?

Taken with what little context you gave him, his quote does NOT prove that he's hoping the benchmarks are not true. Quit leaping to assumptions.

He goes buy x80064 and he insulted someone for owning a diff brand of vid card. Hardly a leap.

right, because it makes sense for ANY reviewer to CPU limit the card....

i think its safe the assume that all the reviews we will see will be using a FX chip or the likes

You're full of crap. When did he insult anyone?

Asking Duvie "Can't handle the pressure on your 7800?" is a taunt, more than likely in jest. That's far from an insult. Just using his screenname to try to brand him is also jumping to ASSUMPTIONS. It could be a joke screenname for all we know.

I have no idea why you're taking exception to

and I'm not going to fight with you. Although I would suggest you have a look at your own predjudices before accusing others.
