nice... at least something...
but im pretty dissapointed, i expected to finally read reviews today :/
well... idk... a 8800gtx is still enough to play games at 1920x1080 and max details and aa today... so it was expensive but if you think of not having to upgrade for what, almost 3 years? thats pretty damn impressive and the per year cost is only around 200$...
hahah awesome, keep em comming :D
its not an twimtbp game? :confused:
oh and did anybody notice the latyest xbitlabs article?
they meassured power consumption of the latest cards in very high detail, slot, first 6pin, second 6pin or 8 pin, in idle, under gaming load, occt load and blue ray playback load... very interesting!
and in this article they hint towards the 400 series being very hot and power hungry.
in fact they say something along the lines of "it might take a while until nvidia cards are perf/watt competitive again"
xbitlabs is veeery picky when it comes to power consumption of cpus, boards and vgas...
this cant affect their 400 review for the better... and the fact that they went back to the bench and checked the power consumption of all current cards shows that this is going to be a major part of their 400 series article, power consumption... :D
I'll bet $50 that the NDA lift is at midnight GMT, 1:00 CET (which would make it 7 p.m. EST).
I dunno I play most games at highest details with SLI 8800GT, they have been nice to me for almost 3 years now..
It all depends on the requirements of Guild Wars 2 if i'll upgrade or not.
SLI 8800GT is quite a bit faster than a single 8800GTX though :)
Talking about 8800GTXs, mine just died in my secondary PC. Damned solder problem. Luckily I still have 1 month of warranty left. Since they don't produce the GTX anymore, I might actually get a free upgrade now. Nice! :D
ATM i use a GTS 250 from Leadtek, V2 that is, a bit of OC. It's at around 8800GTX levels because of higher freq, even if mem bus is just 256. But at 1680/1050, with an I7 CPu at 4 Ghz, i still cannot max some games, like metro/crysis/stalker/BFBC2 etc..., not talking about 4x AA or some other delights.
yay its 7 EST ammm well 7 am EST anyways :(
7 PM EST.... strangest release date/time yet
NDa should lift in time for my morning Coffee over here.. ;) Should make good reading for it
GTX 480 will be showed on these screens 2nite at PAX 6PM EST. I'm wondering if Nvidia use the GTX 480 to power these screens, that would be hilarious. :D

5870 lightning and 2*470 caught in bed

5870 lightning could handle 2*470 is something :)
Is it only me that think there's something weird about the brackets? Poor 2nd GTX470, that card has to run hot as hell.

We've picked up news from MSI regarding the latest implementation of Multi-GPU processing on the Big Bang Fuzion mainboard. Using the Lucid Hydra chipset, MSI was able to get two GeForce GTX 470 to run with a Radeon HD 5870 Lightning to complete 3DMark. More inside.
