    supposedly the 17th. thats the paper launch. judging by the stock of 5870's it will be a while. newegg wont have a lot of the models back until early november.

    would be cool to have a slider for it so you can basically adjust the level of geometry detail! that would be sweet!

    17th of Nov is not happening since they haven't gotten A2 back yet.

    but why not? months are short... according to jensen at least ^^
    he told the press to wait just a few short months until fermi comes out
    im gonna use that next time my boss asks me about finishing my work... oh just a few more months, geez dont be so unpatient!

    well, im convinced there wont be any launch in 2009, actually they might not even make it in q1 either if a2 still doesnt work...
    im just trying to stay open minded and look at both, pro and con.
    nvidia pro = launch in 3 weeks
    nvidia con = launch in q1 or even q2

    reality is usually somewhere in between

    They will buy VIA and kill the graphics department, start producing mainstream x86 cpus with GF's help and have 8 cores cpu's on 45nm based of modified nano core.

    Get out.

    Don't even say that. That would be so brutal for us.

    For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.

    As much as NVidia has annoyed me recently. Starting at the 9xxx series, I really do want Fermi to be an amazing card.

    We need the competition and I've always used NV, until the 4870x2 anyway.

    If NV goes we're in some serious trouble, besides them there's no real competition from anyone else.

    Yeah, it's true. nVIDIA is being shut down in December... for... vacations

    However, I may have some bad news.
    A lil' birdie told me that a November launch seems impossible at the moment, but there's a possibility of a limited quantity launch in December.
    Decent quantities in mid January-early February.

    If true that's some really bad news.

    NV are really late with a launch

    Loonym...You are missed.

    The element of one

    Breathe me in
    Breathe me in

    I disbelieve in separation. I close my eyes to see you.
    This is for you, everything I am. This is for you, take it from me.
    I, I disbelieve separation. I close my eyes
    there's no escaping me
    This is for you, everything I am. This is for you, take it from me.
    In your heart in your soul. I perceive rejuvenation

    Breathe me in. I am forever. Deep within I am eternal.

    I will return to you. I am with you always. I will never turn away from you.

    What a load of garbage. Nvidia isn't going anywhere. Worst case, we only see a paper launch in Q4 09 but Nvidia will not go out of business. If Nvidia was close to bankruptcy then AMD is infinitely closer.

    5800 did not decimate anything. GTX295 is still faster than the 5870 and the 5870 isn't anywhere close to twice as fast as the 4870.

    exactly finally ati have caught up to nvidia but not buried it already


    my post was @ saaya/ati fanatics who all of the sudden are interested in fermi or who think fermi will be a slouch or a no show until next summer


    we should embrace both ati&nvidia and i hope they leap frog each other more often than once/twice a decade
