No. Listen, I'm running a 4830 myself right now and my recommendation for a high end desktop GPU is and will probably remain the 5850 for the near future, but you have to give credit where credit is due. Nv has managed to jam a ton of forward looking arch improvements and GPGPU stuff into this thing and still managed to make it fairly competitive in pure GPU terms right now. That's a major accomplishment that's going to pay off in the long run. Charlie can't seem to see anything beyond the current state of the high end desktop GPU market, and his predictions of financial d00m for Nv are totally off the mark. Nv is actually way ahead of the curve on a lot of things right now, and that is going to become painfully obvious to just about everyone over the next year or two.
