AMD Cayman info (or rumor)

I guess that makes everything alright, doesn't it?

I suppose he didn't get that AMD email either. Check the card prices..oh looky there, they are the same..the GTX580 AND the HD5970. What a shocker.

Another bought and paid for NV reviewer. It's like they think they owe something to their master or something. Just take the f%ckin card and test with a price equivelent card. *cough* 5970 *cough*

You also have 2 NV OC cards in the review too. Where's the AMD OC cards? Hmm? Where?, where? Yeah, nice fair review you got there.

Don't give your BS excuses why you didn't. At least be honest as say that nVidia told me not to include the 5970...um..cuz it would make our new card look over a year old. Well, duh! apoppin, you lose!

Charlie has been wrong as a dog writing an actuary exam, he said reviewers were going to be picked carefully and only reviewers that bent to Nvidia's will were going to get cards, yet pretty much every reviewer out there got one. Are they all paid off now!!! The conspiracy.

I think your taking it a bit far, in terms of releases from AMD, Kyle has been one of the most positive. I think he called out NV about something a few weeks ago.

If you look at the 5970 at the moment, especially from newegg, the quantities are not exactly overflowing, 1 brand and only 1 card(besides a 1200 dollar edition).

If NV wanted to respond, like AMD did(a dirty marketing move at that), they could say these price are only temporary and the price will come back up or the 5970 won't be available for sale anymore.

I think stock of the 5970 is going to run really thin soon and that's a good thing and hopefully means cayman and antilles are coming.

The only place I see a 499 price is newegg. Provantage, Mwave and anywhere in Canada it is still 600 dollars plus. If one wanted to be a conspiracy theorist like you, one could say AMD gave a special deal to newegg, sent a memo to gtx 580 reviewers saying see, the 5970 is 499 when in reality, it is a singular deal for one card at one place.
