[DexNfX]

Lets say you get 2 GTX480's and want 2 full cover blocks...
Thats about $1600 if the blocks are about 120 a pop. Good lord!

[mcoffey]

This is why I get the fastest GPU I can when refreshing my system. So I can wait out pricing like this:D I'm anxious to upgrade, and been waiting for these cards to come out, but I can wait for a while longer.

...sounds to be about par for the course. 3 GTX 285's $1,200.oo + 3 HK WB's 450.oo + some sick ass RR TECH PLATING PRICELESS :up:

[p0Pe]

5% better than a 5870:rofl:

[Queenz]

I've seen this on another tech forum already. It's fake.

The starting price of some of the cards will start out at $300+

[Floyd]

5% better than a 5870:rofl:

Where did you read that? Are there reviews yet?

[p0Pe]

yeah, some are out IIRC. cant remember the source. google it:D

Fake?: http://www.brightsideofnews.com/news/2010/2/21/nvidia-geforce-gtx-480-shows-up-for-preorder-and-the-specs-look-fishy.aspx

[ND40oz]

Not sure if I'd trust "sabrepc" for pricing, but hey, that's just me. If the top end card really is the same price as the 5970, this thing better be pretty awesome.

'rumor'... both links just picked up from nvidia facebook.
waiting for the big announcement from them:


NVIDIA The wait is almost over! The world's most anticipated--and
fastest--PC graphics gaming
technology ever created will be unveiled at PAX 2010. Visit
www.nvidia.com/paxeast for more information and to find out how you can
compete to win a free trip to Boston!

You're telling me nVidia posted a link to sabrepc on their facebook page to leak retail pricing?

[bianco]

You're telling me nVidia posted a link to sabrepc on their facebook page to leak retail pricing?

no, both links came from the nvidia facebook wall; but not posted by nvidia themselves.

[Crow]

Long story short is, the SaberPC thing is likely a PR stunt by the company.

The launch is going to be at PAX 2010. And if that made you draw for your wallet, the weekend passes are sold out, only individual day passes are available. You'll be able to register for a drawing for a full trip to Boston for it on the Nvidia website soon. I know I'm going to, since there's no indication of Nvision happening this year.

5% faster - it's here (http://www.semiaccurate.com/2010/02/20/semiaccurate-gets-some-gtx480-scores/)


That review is depressing. Damn it, I don't wanna go ATI... I hope we get more reviews soon.

[p0Pe]

That review is depressing. Damn it, I don't wanna go ATI... I hope we get more reviews soon.

hell... my mod is practically tailored for a 5870.

and on the other hand, i think that nvidia will come out with the fermi cards about the same time as i finish beto:rofl:

26 of marts my ass.. what happened to Q4 2009 lol!:bird: delay after delay... bet the will show off another fake card :lolsign:

[Crow]

That's not a review. That's ATI's personal Spin-Doctor mouthing off as usual.

Charlie's the biggest douche bag on the internet. He got fired from The Inq. for bashing and lying about Nvidia, and we know he's lying about this.

Hardware Canucks did a side by side comparison of the benchmark video that was released of Far Cry 2, using a single GTX 480, and a top end build with a 5870, and it was definitely more than just "5% better". :bird: Charlie the ATI Dickshine. The front page of his website is peppered with ATI advertisments for a reason.

Be a month at least until you see any real reviews as that's when they'll lift the NDA's. Just saw where they'll be showing the card at PDXLan East on the 23rd of March. So I wouldn't expect anything real until around then. You'll see plenty of bullshit between now and then, but nothing solid IMO.

[Morae]

Ah, then I'll definitely wait for more reliable sources. Thanks for the info.

[p0Pe]

okay, if they come out with something decent, that roughly costs the same as a 5870 (a 5870 is nearly 500$ in dk) i might considder getting it:D

[Crow]

Lol, that's the best thing I've seen all day.

[Greedseed]

hmmm still gone go ATI anyway ^^ just tout u guys maybe wonted some info on this xD

ATI lover 4 live !!!!!

[Icemaz]

Just FYI, as for some reason everyone still doesn't know this yet, but the guy who runs semiaccurate is actually paid by ATI to post the lies that he posts :/

Hes actually been caught lying many times in the past but somehow those all seem to just blow over and he keeps ending up being trusted and put into news links over and over.

Theres a reason its called semiaccurate, because really the only thing he ever posts that is true is that the cards and hardware actually exsist :/

How People still think hes a source for anything at all really blows my mind, but I guess a lot of people still don't know any better.

[Schlosser]

Crow and Icemaz are right. I've heard about this dumbfuck before and just by reading the article it is clear that he isn't a neutral participator in the GPU showdown.

Why would anyone trust info on a site called semiaccurate

[ShadowHunter]

wait... what happened to the gtx300? or did i miss something big? :hide:

[mcoffey]

Doesn't matter who says what about the new cards until the NDA's are lifted. Because until then, it's all unsubstantiated rumors. It could be anyone making up anything just to draw attention to their sites, and that usually the case 99% of the time.

One things for sure, NVidia is keeping this one as close to the vest as possible. So it's all bullshit until the 26th of March. Just look at those idiots over on XS's news section if you want proof:D

[bianco]

wait... what happened to the gtx300? or did i miss something big? :hide:

nvidia (http://twitter.com/NVIDIAGeForce/status/8523402386) decided to rename it to the 4xx...
the fermi is so late, i mean... ahead of its time that it had to 'skip' an entire generation.

[Marne]

aint that a bitch. so late to your own party you dont even know who the fuck the host is. just show up like que??

[mcoffey]

And the first reviews with pre orders are out :rofl:

Now that's some funny ass reviews right there...

[ShadowHunter]

wait... youre telling me you can overclock a MONITOR?!?! :crack::coke::crack::coke::crack::coke:

a card that maxes duke nukem forever? i dont believe it!

[LowBrowser]

Well there's some more preliminary pricing on the 400 series in New Zealand.

GTX480: http://www.computerlounge.co.nz/components/componentview.asp?partid=11915
GTX470: http://www.computerlounge.co.nz/components/componentview.asp?partid=11916

These prices seem about right (multiply by 0.7 or divide by 1.4 for USD), and are more or less the same as a similarly reputable branded, priced and warrantied 5890 (to be specific a Gigabyte for ~$1050). So it looks like GTX480 is going to be $600 USD at launch, with the GTX470 at around $400 USD, maybe a little more. Can't say I'm suprised, and I won't be changing from ATI anytime soon unless the performance is amazing.

Just in case someone checks the prices of ATI on this site, they always inflate their ATI prices heavily, but their nVidia prices are pretty normal for NZ.

[vanarnam]

well, the US pricing isn't set (i guess i'll still bet that it's 500USD once things settle out but the initial price will be ~550ish or so) but one things for sure-stuff costs a lot in NZ!

[Crow]

$350 for the GTX 470 and $500 for the GTX 480.
