You will only get globals if they are faster than the 5870s

Or if you skipped the 5870 to wait for them

Only 5-10% better then the 5870, and $500+ inflaition.

The 5-10% estimate was back in November... i'm quite sure they've improved performance since then.

That link was posted yesterday, and they said their internal testing is only 5-10% better. And from everything else we've seen lately, that seems to be the norm.

Well as usual it will boil down to clockability and luck of the draw

No, you don't understand. I've been hearing that internally nvidia had achieved such speeds back in NOVEMBER. So for it to remain 5-10% either means that its not true... or they knew the maximum performance of fermi back in november. Either way, still from november.

Or they pushed back release till they could meet those claims.. which is more likely?

I aint saying that they would purposely delay fermi to get a 5-10% margin,... just saying that most nvidiot fans mentioned.. If it DOES NOT they wont buy it!

Well hell....how are they supposed to charge these morons 150 -200% market value if they dont?

look you pay as much for a 285 now as a 5800 series...

Now the real question.. will this drive the prices of the 280/285/295 to something guys like me can afford???

So they squeezed out a win?

Not sure if these numbers are remotely accurate this early as most of the guys I know on the inside of things either haven't recieved the cards or just got them in like the last 5 minutes.
