Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Lol says Blackened23, absolute idiot who is despised by both sides almost equally. Of course Blackened, that's what happens when you bang on and on about how great AMD was until you decided to buy 780's then changed your mind to how great Nvidia was.
Even the AMD-hating wacko's at...
You would wager? Go ahead and wager, while showing some screenshots as proof.
So why not do it at 4x until Nvidia can downscale their tessellation? Yeah..
Did AMD advise reviewers on switching off Nvidia's optimized AF?
Tessellation is already at the stage where it is "perfect" during gaming, but it is clear that Nvidia is trying to use it to leverage an advantage that is totally unnoticable. AMD has no interest in increasing tessellation...
Pretty sure you're the extreme fanboy if you think Nvidia telling reviewers how to bench AMD cards is kosher. :rolleyes:
Let's see the differences between AMD's optimized tessellation and max tessellation. Oh wait we already know don't we?

WHY...
:D
Why would Nvidia want to enable something that they spent the past 2 years trying to break?
The whole point of this is that Nvidia's laughably OTT tessellation isn't improving image quality more than it is decreasing fps.
That doesn't change the fact that it's Nvidia's AA, and that it's generally inferior to MSAA.
Let's say FXAA gives slightly inferior image quality while providing much less fps hit. Sounds about right?
So what is the difference between that and AMD's tessellation optimisations which...
If AMD's tessellation optimisations are unnoticable while gaming they should be allowed.
Chances are they are barely even noticable in screenshots so it's highly unlikely anyone will notice during actual play.
What's the difference between using FXAA "because it doesn't hit memory so hard"...
Guys no need to strain yourselves wondering what's going on here. Anyone who's ever owned an intel and AMD system knows the story - AMD is "smoother", and that's what is being picked up by the people playing.

That one was out on release day, and doesn't look like it's been nVidia sponsored.

1ghz 6870 has the beating of an 880mhz 460 in 66% of benched games. I don't see a lot of 880mhz 460's either. More like 1 in 10.
I've been really vocal about this everywhere, but people should be cautious too.
It has the potential to be great, it is great already in a few titles. That means it's a big thumbs up - it's probably done more in 3 days than PhysX has in 3 years.
Just try to keep expectations reasonable...
