The official GT300/Fermi Thread

[***Deimos***]

I'm not saying that at all. They have faked a lot of stuff already, like the first card which had screws holding the cooler on, the recent benchmarks which were photoshopped, etc...These are not real, but fermi obviously is real. I just want to see legit benchmarks, but if they don't have a working card or finalized clock speeds, that would be impossible at this time. This is so similar to ATIs R600 - lots of delays, lots of hype, lots of fake benchmarks...

No NASDAQ company (let alone Fortune 500) would EVER do what you are implying.

Making up benchmark numbers and deceiving your bond holders and investors WILL SURELY GET YOU IN A LOT OF TROUBLE.

100% sure nVidia said it WAS A PROTOTYPE and would ABSOLUTELY NEVER say its a retail board ready for sale.

Whatever benchmarks you find on the internet ARE DEFINITLY NOT made by nVidia. If they were real, they would be on nVidia's website, and there would be coverage by reuters and wallstreet etc.

Like R600? Maybe. That pretty much assumes you worked on R600 and Fermi and thus have the knowledge to make valid comparison. Delays? Did ATI in 2006 or nVidia in 2009 announce the release date? Hype? Which TV channel was that Fermi commercial on? Where are those big posters and ads on buses?

Virtually everything you're talking about (ie benchmarks, hype, whining about delays), is made up by folks in forums. Just want to make sure everybody is 100% clear - until nVidia actually posts it on their website, its all just rumours.
