    That game sucks more when you need a single slot cooler. :wallbash:

    Is it mean or is AMDs marketing strategy confusing?

    Don't promote the product till we've launched it, we don't want hype.

    Not to mention releasing test cards to a few select people then immediately calling the results of their tests bunk. :sigh: Seriously I can't comprehend that.

    I wouldn't expect the reviews too be up until its tomorrow all around the world. Or at least in the UK. Theres also some fud going around that AMD decided to wait on the NDA now, I hope it really is just fud, I'm sick of waiting! :lol:

    Why delay it further? Unless they have something they want to hide?

    Not really further but until the 14th which would make sense for a paper launch, since that is when the midrange 6xx cards are coming out.

    Don't get me wrong I really hope its wrong.

    Just been looking at some images of benchmarks, someone has broken the NDA :)

    I probably shouldn't post them though, don't want bit-tech getting into trouble :)

    Apparently the NDA now does not lift until the 14th of May :(

    I hope for ATIs sake that the R600 is something quite spectacular, otherwise this launch will be a huge anti-climax.

    And I'm assuming many people like myself who have been holding on for what seems like ages, will just go and grab an 8800...

    Do they come close to the Daily Tech benchmarks?

    From what I could understand possibly worse :(

    It's hard to figure out because the benchmarks compare filtering techniques that are new etc...

    To be honest a lot of it looks like smoke and mirrors. I hope I'm wrong.

    Is that when AMD/ATi get above nVidia in terms of power?
