Nvidia confirms the GTX 580

[Baron_Davis]

Way way over the top, why so much anger? I agree that Hardware Canucks is a very good site, I personally enjoy the reviews there. But you are not doing yourself any favors with posts like this.

Oh and first post here.

Let's just hope for Nvidia, Charlie is as useless as you say...

Even if the 6970 ends up being twice as fast as the 580, Nvidia will simply price drop. Speed is not the only thing that gives a card value.

Anyway, I'm done with you.

PS. Don't forget your knee pads.

I have to admit this thread was seriously losing it's edge for a while. Thanks for sharpening it.

Judging by his rapidly deteriorating mood, it could even be true.

Edit: As for availability, it could go either way, if nvidia are offering 512 cuda at those clocks and temps I don't think yields are a problem, but when they started making them in comparison to AMD's Cayman wafer order might be something to look at.

I dont see hwc being biased. thats not to say that skymtl has no preference, most people are inclined to like one company or another due to their personal reasons, but his site and reviews all seem as fair as they come to me.

HC does excellent reviews IMO. I'm not too bothered by people showing preference one way or another, in fact it's a normal thing to do. Just because someone does reviews, doesn't mean they have no bias or preference. What matters is the ability for the person to put their bias aside and just report what they find as best they can. I and I genuinely believe HC does this, which is more than I can say for several other sites out there.

Back on topic, it seems logical to me that Nvidia has solved their yield issues by now, so I don't think this will be a paper launch. At least I hope not. I wanna see a nice little price war at the high end. Look at what's going on with the 68xx and GTX460 cards, excellent value to be had at the ~$200 price point. No way would we see these prices otherwise.

I agree, Nvidia have done a sterling job over the last year fighting AMD as the value/budget GPU brand.
It should mean more great price/performance cards this year which is a win for us consumers.

Anyone notice how almost no nvidia or ATi thread ends well?
