NVIDIA GF100 & Friends speculation

[digitalwanderer]

It's like saying F1 cars makes to much noise....this is not prius class

Oh noes, me and my lowly 5970 don't qualify as F1 class gaming equipment? I feel all small and sad now.

Being silly is a requirment in sillyseason?
I never said that...but the obsessions with noise is for old people

/Yell "GET OF MY LAWN" *shakes cane*

But the more watt you have, the better it sounds at lower volumes...and the more complete you soundpicture is.

Utter bollicks.

Sound quality is far more than just wattage.

This is pure FUD. You should wait for the reviews to decide if it is too loud or not. And in all fiarness the reference cooler of the 5870 is also not really silent.

480 has other drawbacks bigger, than the cooling solution.

I know, my setup goes for 20Hz to 40KHz in a 7.1 setup...but wattage still matters, my cars has +3000 Watt..and the sound is sublime even a low volumes.

@mao5: Final scores based on ...?

Seconded...

 

[Scrat]

Seconded...

Thirded (does a word like this even exist?)

Fourthed.
As there is no numbers at all, I'm pretty sure that it's in fact an accurate in scale measurememnt of E-p****s arhievable from each card.

@mao5: Final scores based on ...?

synthetic score based on several single tests

Sigh. I'm so tired of hearing how Fermi is going to pwn, or blow, or rock, or hate, or piss in someone's breakfast cereal, or be the recipient thereof.

Can the 26th get here any sooner? I guess it's not even the 26th anymore is it, it's supposed to be the 29th now right? Ugh.

Come to New Zealand and have your 26th come sooner. Even our 29th of the month comes before everywhere else, but that still doesn't help as Nvidia are backwards and are probably basing their NDA on some other countries time.

Forded.

OK, this is silly.


Edit: I think that this graph readily illustrates the "fear" of many of us, that the performance window will be very narrow in the region between HD5850 and GTX480. What can it be in this graph? At best 25%?

No, it's still the 26th for reviews, 27th in Europe. I don't know where that 29th rumor comes from.

 

[Kaotik]

It's no doubt the same as Tom's Hardwares "sum of all fps" chart

Fear or expectations, whoever sees this chart will find exactly what he has hoped/wished for the past year.

So irrelevant to actual gaming?

I guess by "single tests" he means "single game benchmarks".
