AMD, Roy Taylor, the Nano, and the Press @ [H]

HardOCP's so biased against AMD that their AMD card reviews are actually done with Nvidia hardware.

Look at it this way--it gives AMD a chance for a positive review! :D

No, wait--way over there on the right, past the Corsair PSU--looks like an Asus Nano. Rats--there goes the one chance! :p

Hehe, well, AMD does get better frames-per-second numbers that way! ;)

Just stress testing the system and specifically the PSU to go in the mITX case. :) That TITAN is good for that, for sure. Could not get full system load over 420w at the wall. That Corsair should do fine.
 
inb4 "You used a Nvidia to test the PSU being used in the AMD test, and have therefore CONTAMINATED the integrity of the results! *sobbing*"
 
Even Anandtech, who are probably the most diplomatic reviewers in the world
Unless you're a fan of AMD.

"We're waiting for a better time to test Ashes"

:rolleyes:

just one of the many slippery little tactics
 
God damn it the nuts have really come out. who cares what he is using to stress test the damn components. im more interested in the [H]ard data, i would like to see the smallest case they can cram a mitx board + nano into for umm science!
 
While I enjoyed the predictable gibberings of the HardOCP faithful responding to my post, I must single out and congratulate Kyle on his graphic reply.

Good comeback there dude.

It did raise a smile :)


Instruct us, o Ranger101! Guide us to wisdom with these, your first and second posts ever on these forums!


*gibbers, flings poop at Ranger101*


(Of course, we are well aware that there is a 77.9% probability that you are a veteran troll with a new account, but whaddya gonna do?)


(Unless you're Roy, in which case, hi Roy! *flings more poop*)
 
Let the poop flinging begin!

*struggles, gibbers, flings poop at Ranger101*

Also, hoping to read the Nano review this weekend. Start cracking that whip on Brent, Kyle!

Dear Commander Suzdal,

Assuming your opinions are representative of the HardOCP
faithful it would be my pleasure to guide.

Gentlemen, IT BEGINS AND ENDS WITH THIS:

"Wisdom shall not be measured by the number of posts,
but rather by their quality. and a good cause finds
weapons to defend it."

Only a 77.9% chance you say? It appears you're giving me the
benefit of the doubt and I appreciate your generous
estimate.

I'm not ENTIRELY sure my sentiments qualify as trolling,
but the reactions paint a different picture, so
I'll defer to your better judgement.

Truth be told this is my first account at HardOCP and
I'm actually quite new to "trolling." As such, your
reference to "veteran troll" was rather encouraging.

Thank you for YOUR guidance.

In conclusion,

OF COURSE I'M ROY AND I'M IMPERVIOUS TO POOP.

Dr. StrangeKyle.....actually Nurse Practitioner StrangeKyle, but let's not get off topic. LOL!
 
Why isn't Kyle disturbed that he wasn't witness to NVIDIA's phantom card expose'? It was reported here with excitement. It wasn't even a paper launch. NOT EVEN PAPER. There is no information about this card, but it was promoted as news: NVIDIA supposedly showed off a card in an NDA event that HCP were not invited to and have no information about that is SIMPLY AMAZING.

I just rewrote your headline.

Kyle. Don't be juvenile cause you have beef with some rep at some company...

Were you trying to be ironic or did you put your foot in your mouth?

Edit: Kyle you were not invited to this unveiling. You were not provided with any PAPER regarding the statistics of the card. You have no name for the card or project code. There is zero suggestion this possibly exists. You have no verification this took place, or did not care to cite one. You posted vapor about an imminent NVIDIA card that was going to blow the market up WITHIN THE YEAR.

I haven't seen anything from any of the actual review websites. It's possible they were there. I hope Kyle got a pic with the Pope while he was in NYC, that would be pretty awesome.

Yeah, if Kyle can't get a picture with a thing that doesn't exist, he should at least be allowed to get a picture with a man that represents a thing that doesn't exist.

It would be super awesome if at first glance it appeared to be Kyle and The Pope, but if you zoom in it's clearly Kyle and NVIDIA's 'new' card under a pope hat.
 
AceGoober: Were you at the unveiling?

Kyle can't even tell you if the unveiling exists...that's the point...

Dude, you're an idiot. If he was there his NDA wouldn't allow him to tell us until the NDAW expires.
 
It was cited that they weren't there and they were reporting 3rd party information....

Dude, you're an idiot...
 
NDA means you can't talk about it or you can get sued into oblivion. If they were there they can't say anything anyways.


How do you legitimately know different?
 
They specifically stated they weren't there, plus NVIDIA would be bleeding themselves. Investigate any other site, and no one can confirm this even existed. What CAN be confirmed is that HCP stated they were not there, and simply reported on other unsubstantiated reports.

Edit: Paper Launch on magnitudes. So HardOCP reported that this card is supposedly amazing, even though they were not themselves privy to the demonstration that may or may not exist. HCP has no information regarding the card, EVEN ON PAPER, and no clue whether this demonstration actually took place. It's unreasonable that this card exists as NVIDIA would be eating it's own sales. It's the dumbest vapor article ever.

Kyle is SUPER mad he didn't get some free gear, therefore he has thrown any journalistic integrity to the wind. He will champion a thing that doesn't exist from the competitor. What will Kyle say 3 months from now? Is he going to tear NVIDIA a new one?

Edit2: Can I just point out that the big 2 in this category would reflect this cards production? Cards don't materialize...

czerro, has any site received presentation slides of specs of this mysterious product? No? Well then, how can you even apply the title of Paper Launch when nobody has been given spec slides?
 
I said it was WORSE than Paper Launch, yet HCP gave it all the gravitas of an THING, despite having just kurfuffled over Paper Launch.

There is no manufacturer making anything as ground-breaking as this suggests.

This is vapor. There is no PAPER. There is no hardware. There isn't even a spec sheet...but HCP had no problem giving it an optimistic 10 plus header on the front page.

Kyle, that's why people don't trust you.

You are agreeing that it isn't even newsworthy? It's not even Paper Launchable!

There is no documentation or performance information on a card that NVIDIA intends to launch in the next 3-6 months?!

People are reporting this?

NVIDIA can get away with it, on HardOCP apparently.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-disclosure_agreement

In other words, the pictures of Kyle smashing an AMD Nano based system with a sledgehammer in the room where he met with nVidia can't be published until the NDA runs out.
 
No, I am not agreeing with you that it isn't newsworthy. Rumor with the accompanying speculation can be thought provoking which leads many to share their ideas of "what", "if" and "maybe" on any forum.

btw, I would recommend you read back a few pages because apparently you missed this post.

I think you are confused.

There are two kind of post on the front page. One would be articles written by [H] themself. The rest are news links to articles written by other websites. These links are shared here merely for the readers to read those article. It's based on what the admin thinks the readers might be interested in.

It does NOT mean [H] endorse or vouch for these articles. [H] admins are not saying they can confirm that rumor about a new nVidia card when they linked that article in the front page. It's just there for the readers to read, that's all. No one is telling you to believe that rumor. If you have issues with that rumor, you should take it up with the author of the article linked.
 
@GilmourD

You seem reasonable.

There is no information about this product. There is no information coming from fabs that anything new is in production. There are no specs for this item. THERE IS NO PAPER. This is supposedly launching in 6 months. We both know that's not possible.

All under a veil of a supposed demonstration that NOBODY was invited to, but people with vested interests, who were NOT there, will tell you went swimmingly.

So much BS!

Let's equally review and observe the PR of both sides.

This is gross and HCP is supporting it, thought admitting they have no idea if the demonstration took place and they weren't apart of it. So what...and NVIDIA rep told them it went awesome?

Nobody has leaked this, it's BS.

Why is NVIDIA allowed to get away with this?

You really don't understand what an NDA is, do you?

N = NON
D = DISCLOSURE
A = AGREEMENT

They AGREED to NOT make any DISCLOSURE about anything they saw and/or discussed.

This is common in not only the technical industry but across many industries (like the musical instrument industry, for instance when Line 6 released one of the versions of the POD amplifier modeling device).

If anybody says a word then ramifications can range anywhere from a stern "FUCK YOU!" when the next such reveal happens to a law suit.
 
It looks like some of the tin foil hat brigade jumped ship from the gubberment force over to the Nvidia force. "Oh noes, there's an article on Nvidia with positive forward looking views, tons of bias!" The situations are not even partially related, back to your faraday cage!

Damn dude you must be high up there at the NSA to be able to say definitively what he knows and doesn't. Well..either that or you're full of shit.

If there wasn't someone already with the Successfully Trolled by Megalith title, you'd be a contender. :eek::D;)
 
czerro, you still haven't answered my question. Were you at the unveiling?

All I am asking is you answer honestly.

Is that too much to ask? If it is, then take your bullshit elsewhere.
