AMD Trinity news (looks, its near to launch?)

[Russian]

Well I read Anand's article and the article linked here and I didnt see any mentioning that you couldnt run any game benchmark, right? Or did I miss it? Anand specifically stated he wouldnt have had time to do full CPU benchmark anyway, so it was more like a part 1 and part 2 review (well still closer to preview).

Maybe I'm misunderstanding still, but is this any different than Nvidia (or AMD) allowing sites to benchmark the compute abilities of their chips a week prior to official launch, and on launch its full systems go for testing?

This stuff has been done before, it just seems like everyone has a short memory of past launches by both Intel and AMD where there was some sort of control requested of what was posted when...

The truth is, I think all of this stuff has been blown wayyy out of proportion and I feel like there wasn't necessarily anything malicious about how it was done. A few days will not make a difference, especially if the hardware reviewers inform their readers that there is more to come in a few days (especially since most reviewers had no way of getting it all done within the timeframe necessary).
