AMD 7K may get more milage than origionally thought. Reading this if true nV will be sending out mainstream parts at launch. Wonder if that will change now that AMD has shown it's hand with a part capable of taking the preformance crown.

You have to wonder if AMD and nV has seen the the light, by offseting releases by roughly 6 months they could infact both relize huge volume and profits for each launch by edging each other out at each launch. This would in fact be playing global bointers like a fiddle

I have come up with a new tee shirt idea for the entire HWBot league.
Team shirts were so 2011 anyways ............

Not surprsing, after the issues with teh last die shrink from TSMC that they would push it out onger on paper to avoid any problems.

Should also mean that at launch its readily available and there will be less scalping by the etailers.

I think WD is on to something. Like a rotating monopoly with each companies base fanboys so worked up they'll jump at launch they can each price their cards where ever they want to

Fanboy or not, the enthusiasts will buy each brand at each launch bringing in bundles of cash... almost illegal - would be illegal if you could find the email where nVidia and AMD agreed to a six month launch offset

It was on paper and shreaded long long ago in a land far away .......

the paper part perhaps, but it's soul will live forever in the cloud

I think most enthusiasts have caught on to their ploys. Fanboys will never.

Don't know bro, I'm a green guy for the most part, but if I had had the $$ in my pocket on 7970 launch day I'd probably own one or more right now. Being short of cash gave me time to chill and think about it

Reference cards always end up at the bottom of the list.
