Well, as many have been saying, it seems as though the Fermy "benchmark" slides that have been floating around are really just the product of someones imagination:

Nordichardware is on the ball. People not blinded by excitement, hype and speculation worked this out within 15 minutes of seeing the slides in the first place (with a big of Googling, of course). Yet somehow it made the news. Come on, even Fuddo didn't bother reporting on it except to say they were fake.

As for the slides, I'm not surprised. Before any anticipated product launch there is always someone faking an image.

I believe everybody knew they were fakes including the NVIDIA fanboys arguing about it, in the now closed thread about the benchmarks.

Not sure if there was any need to open knew thread about it, since the info you provided was already in that closed thread (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showpost.php?p=4154733&postcount=204) and the argument still went on.

Consider yourself lucky.. I can't function at all without a couple of beers and a pack of cigarettes..
It all started when I started dreaming of playing Duke Nukem Forever on my Fermi's... Damn mushrooms... :(

I just don't understand how something so obvious in the first place was even considered news at some sites :shakes:

It obviously wasn't obvious enough for obvious fans of certain brands like 003.

Is that even english?

Please keep in mind that english is not everybody's mother tongue ;) If you notice any (grammar) mistakes in my posts, feel free to correct them. In fact, I'd be really happy about that :)

I see in the very near future, this thread is going to turn into a fanboy flamefest and will be closed promptly.

I'm just going to preemptively close this.

If you want to chit-chat about your firmys or Firmi in general go hit up the official consolidate-all-this-crap Fermi thread -> http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=241120
