The GT300/Fermi Thread

[zalbard]

Any comments on Charlie's article? Info discussed there sounds quite bad to me.

He is correct about a lot of stuff IMO.
Sure, Fermi will deliver, but at what price?
20% higher gaming performance with 60% bigger die and power consumption? And manufacturing costs compared to 5970...
This is GeForce 5800 2.0 if you ask me.
I blame the professional market and Nvidia trying to compete with CPUs due to not having their own.

well if this the gtx360 then impressed but if its the gtx380 then meh its fine but i expected more with all the propaganda around it

Oh, come on. This was a PR session, so obviously it was a top card... They brought the best they could offer, even if they had a single card manufactured that could push this performance, lol. Not like they are going to release it tomorrow.
