Some thought it would be impossible to top the current success of Nvidia's flagship product.
Behold, the magic beans and seeing is believing. Surely advances in technology has drastically changed and I don't think the competition can keep up at this pace.
As of now, I am not sure of release date nor can I confirm expire on NDA.
Enjoy :up:

please, no more dirty name calling between nvidia and ati/amd and all this "we are the best, we are the best" marketing bs. i hope ati/amd and nvidia finally stop that lame name calling and focus more on marketing like this.
When I read "Take 2X for Ultimate SLI performance" I thought about viagra too ^ ^
Thanks for posting Charles, thats a great marketing product :D
hmmmm me likes those :DQuote:

Cool stuff. Shows that nVidia is pretty laid back, as goes for competition - and ready to have a little fun. Anybody recall AMD's PresHot survival kit? :lol:
Doesn't it more imply, that running sli now includes a boner.
Or the FX noise video.Quote:

I'm lost. How do the green jelly beans (more than) double SLI performance? If there is a point to this post I haven't found it yet. One of you smarter people, please point it out to me. Thanks.
Just eat more than 2 :)Quote:

I too am disgraced, the 8800 is a great product we all know it.
680 chipset? A real mixed bag full of a multitude of stunts to get it to actually work, and it''s still not that great.
Yes it is marketing, but who really wants to be left with no choice but to run an nvidia chipset for sli?
An enthusiast wants choice first and foremost, we have already seen nvidia yellow stripe themselves over the 10% performance boost in sli on the X38, then pulling sli support from Intel.
As an enthusiast this did not make me happy, don't you agree?
Let's cut the spin for once, not worrying too much about our sponsors, if we REALLY DO care that is...
This is why motherboard companies are struggling big time, especially tier b manufacs... Making them use low level chipsets is actually killing them off, when users blame them for issues related to the chipset that are nigh on impossible to fix at the bios level...

I am inclined that they were meant as a joke...........take it as that and move on, even if you don't like Nvidia for what ever reason, no need to get all righteous over freaking JELLY BEANS....................come on guys........we have better things to argue about.
it's not about getting in a knot man, it's about the truth, nothing wrong with that at all... Sometimes things get covered up, some don't care and see it as part of business, others like to know what's what.. I don't hate Nvidia, I run 8800's, but I was disappointed heavily they pulled sli support on Intel due to greater performance..
It's one thing going with the flow of business, but not voicing how the community could really be given a choice is just a cop out..

Raja
nvidia has always had great cards out there but their customer service, pr, and driver support has always been subpar
Its called sarcasm. Thats where the humor is derived from.
QFT. (just as Intel, AMD,........)Quote:

They know from both sides that we want SLI on Intel, I know the key people involved are well aware.
Right now, the 680i is a good choice in desktop chipsets and its main attraction is SLI.
Yep making money = employees getting paid, marketing and research budgets getting increased, company benefits, and all the other horrible stuff to having a successful business model.
no the point is that that's what EVERY company is about: making money.Quote:

"In touch" would also count with the K|ngp|n video, harmless fun for us all to enjoy. We see they respect Vinces efforts and take good care of him as they should. Vince is top notch and gets respect from us all.
Don't be a hater :D "marketing whaaa"
It's funny for sure, but fcg speaks the truth really, nvidia don't realise they would sell more video cards than they are selling 680i's atm if they allowed Intel an sli license, I guess...
Cellshocked, my bad.
Chilly1 modded Astek Vapochill LS on my CPU.
Fixing sig now.
R507 regassed for Prescott EE, the Kentsfield is no problem.
Fugger, I believe they are Corsair Dominator not Dominators.
lol :p: j/k
If a prize was given for pedant of the week, we'd have our winner right here :DQuote:

This is all your fault Charles..You created a national craving and have them all stockpiled in Vegas..:shakes:
It...just...isn't...fair....:shrug:
Im running two kits, does that count for plural?
They sell them in bulk at candy stores. If you have a mall close you should be able to locate the flavor. They are good and very addictive.
I like Juicy Pear, JellyBellies, i might have to buy a card if they had them in Juicy Pear.
No they look out for you. They like keeping their good customers.Quote:

This morning I walk out on my back deck and there's a Fed ex package.
I open it up and one of the goodies inside was this foil wrapped package.
Inside: Sour apple jelly bellies!:up: :up: :up: :up: :up: :up: :up:
Now I'd love to show you a pic but they are history!
Many Thanks Charles, they were excellent..:D
