Yeah I just meant I had mentioned that it wasn't new, at least, awhile ago.

You aren't allowed to talk about specifics that you have learned from the briefing/review samples.

Bingo. I can say obvious things that have already been shown in this thread.

As for an NDA, some people like treading closer to breaking it than others. Some lead readers in another direction by posting false info in order to get traffic.

One way or another, one thing is certain: all of this idle talk will be put to bed sooner than many thought.....

This can't happen soon enough.

You're not making the waiting any easier!!!

I know Obr is more than an avid fan of NV, but he's going crazy over how good these cards are. OC potential is supposed to put HD 7970 to shame, also some new features to lessen the input lag in games etc.

I can tell you with nearly 100% certainty that OBR will not be attending any briefings. As such, all of his info would be coming from potentially dubious sources.

HOWEVER, that isn't to say that NVIDIA doesn't have any tricks up their sleeves. I am just advising everyone not to listen to rumors at this point since this is actually the first launch I have seen where MAYBE 5% of the rumors from sites (Fud, Expreview, VR Zone, SA, OBR, etc.) have been even remotely close to the truth.

**Vardant** · 03-10-2012, 10:11 AM

I'm not sure I understand you correctly. He's been in SF at the press conference, so assuming reviewers got their cards there, then he has one or at least he should have some information, that was presented there.

Well reading his google translated blog, I thought he meant to write he was not there but got info from someone.

I am really close to getting a 7970 at this point, but I have been waiting to see what both companies have to offer, I hope the nv card will be a bit more silent that's all I could complain about the 7970 too.

Now that only about 5% of the info we got was right from major sites, I'll never even bother about rumors in the future apart from release dates. It seems it keeps getting worse and with that little relevant information it doesn't worth the time.

**ClockZ** · 03-10-2012, 10:43 AM

I'm itching to spend some money on some new card/cards........hate this waiting to see whats what but thats the game i suppose. I can't remember a release where we didn't really have ANY hard facts this close to release,speculation/opinions have been all over the place concering Kepler...strange but kinda exciting.

I met literally everyone there, including the EU and APAC press. Unless he was invisible or hiding really, really well, he wasn't among the crowd.

@skymtl

Indirectly are you still confirming the upcoming presentation of gk110?

Trollface...

Absolutely not. Not even indirectly.

Yeah, I realized I worded the question poorly after posting it but didn't want to go back and edit it.

I'll be very glad if this pans out. It would be a really important feature for me but I won't believe it until I see it officially.

disregard, they do not have a Kepler: Based on data from many sites in the world said that the GTX680 card will come in higher than the performance of HD7970 card behind about 5%

**boxleitnerb** · 03-10-2012, 02:12 PM

3DMark11 Extreme? Did the 7970 gain so much from drivers? I had it pegged at 2700-2800 points.

**Tim** · 03-10-2012, 02:15 PM

Useless chart is useless.

2GB vs 3GB. No matter how fast it is, 2GB doesn't seem like being enough for HD texture packs, 2560x1440 etc
Nvidia should ship this cards wit 3GB.

I heard rumors about a 4GB version coming from some of the AIBs. Much like the 6GB versions of the HD7970.

**informal** · 03-10-2012, 04:26 PM

I don't want to be the one to say it, but this thread simply teabaggs the Fermi thread

. I thought it's impossible to over speculate one product(like it was the case with Fermi) ,but Kepler did it. I hope the chip is as good as the hype is.
