I just gleaned it... but since 5800s and Fermi are coming from the same plant, Charlie makes a lot of sense. Yeah it makes a point with a sledgehamer instead of a sentence and may use the most extreem examples... (IE that 2% thing... I bet you my dewar that was accurate... for one wafer not the whole run... )

70% idle fan, because it cant run low voltage... isnt ATi having those issues as well? Can't do their lowest p-state without crashing? Not saying ati needs 70% fan speed (its 1/3rd the size isnt it?) Also from what I have read about the TSMC process. ATi spent a lot of time working on the thermal issues, and has a huge leg up over nVidia in that area.

Meh, wish I had more time to read everything. Seriously if 480s are in consumers hands (evn i nthe supply that 5870s were) by the end of MArch I will eat my hat. and by eat my hat, I mean drink a beer and pour out a shot "for the homies"

It's great toget excited, but just like Cypress... the pre-release documentation does not equal the release product. If nVidia made drastic changes like they are talking, it might not actually be a great bointing card. The test out today are because the cards today are the same as the cards when 3d01 came out.. just more powerful...

Well we will see. Fx

All I say is wait until the early adopters get some cards and test them. I dont trust any of the reviewers a bit.

I agree, retail cards will tell a thousand truths good bad or indifferent

I agree, been around the block with these speculation gurus a few times. Its a waste of time to view these contrives.
