    Well if it turns out to be as noisy, that is more than enough to be renamed to FX.

    I stand corrected. :oops: I must have been thinking of FP precision. My bad.

    So...Dave...question:

    Can we expect the ability for guarenteed instant context switching somewhere down the road in shortly-upcoming AMD graphic products? ;)

    I can safely say we haven't signed any NDA yet, and I doubt anyone else has. If the leaked timeframes are correct, you'd assume AMD to be contacting reviewers to sign NDAs within 2-3.5 weeks... Of course, we won't be able to tell you when we actually sign it!

    Now, I ponder if legally speaking, posting "We didn't sign the NDA" every day and suddenly no longer saying that can be considered an infringement. Hmm, probably not worth the risk. :lol:

    ... or does the NDA say that you explicitly must deny that you have signed it if anyone asks?
    :cool:

    I always thought that a pretty silly story. And it wasn't the day the public would get it, but the day the press would get it, if I'm recalling correctly.

    This will be a dream come true :lol:

    AMD PR team need to wake up, leaking infos about technology demos not enough, they need to leak a picture from the retail card, before the supercheap 8800gts 320mb hit the stores :wink:
