Charlie also doesn't seem to know that hardware revisions begin at A0... I guess there's a reason they call it semi accurate, right?

like i said in the other thread a lot of people seem to think that nvidia DO use A1 as first sillicone.

and eevn if that was the case.. card is so obviously fake even if the silicone was not

[DilTech]

Check the other thread, I proved that wrong James.. The NV15(GF2 GTS) oem cards were Rev A0. It's just that the vast majority of video card chips are never perfect the first attempt which is why people never usually see Rev A0.

Also, I think we ALL know the fermi shown was a mock up, it's common place in the world of marketing products. Not saying they should BS and claim it was the real deal, but it is something we commonly see done.

I'm giving the thread a tiny bit to blow itself over, it IS already in the GT300 thread... I'll close it in exactly 15 minutes.

Meh... imagine Charlies post with less smug and more aggression

[DilTech]

Ah, forget waiting...this is already in the GT300 thread guys, continue any discussion there...

Also, PLEASE keep GT300/Fermi discussion in that thread...
