Hardocp called it like it is. AMD hyped this up as much as possible. In the end, their hype was empty. They delayed legitimate reviews because the card wouldn't be able to handle a legitimate review.

I thought everyone loved Gal Civ 2?

The GTX 660 Ti isn't going to have a chance at keeping up with such reduced memory bandwidth.

The expectations that some people have with these RMAs are just unreal. You are literally complaining about the serial number not being a number you like.

Come on, everyone knows that all 7XXX series cards can overclock to at least 1.5GHz. If you don't compare Nvidia cards at stock to AMD cards at 1.5GHz, then you are a Nvidia shrill, fanboy, and employee. Anyways, on planet reality, the GTX 670 is always the better choice.

' So the 7950 is better than the GTX 670 because the GTX 670 "cheats" by getting more performance in games, and the 7950 is better because it has extra Vram and memory bandwidth that doesn't actually translate into higher performance in games that aren't Crysis 1? Okay.

Just buy an SSD to make up the difference

So Crysis 1 and Metro 2033 prove that an overvolted 7950 that uses about 50% to 70% more power than a cheaper and quieter GTX 670 is better because these two games are slightly better than the GTX 670? Okay. Whatever dude. I guess if you put 1.5 volts into the 7950 and invest in a liquid...

If the 7990 is even made, it will be almost completely pointless. The 7970 uses more power than the 6970, and it uses far more power than the actual competition (the GTX 670/680). This means a dual GPU card like the 7990 will have to be underclocked in order to meet power limits. Remember, AMD...

I know at least two of those games have an extreme CPU bottleneck. If you have a severe CPU bottleneck, how are you going to get 100% GPU usage?

This certainly makes EVGA's $1050 price point seem good.

The minimum I would consider right now would be the $388 7950. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161400

You addressed the price part of my argument, and ignored the performance part. It is the combination of the two that is annoying to me. Do you think people would be as annoyed at a $550 price if it was 45-55% better than the GTX 580? My hypothetical argument is about the performance of the...

Or we realize that AMD isn't the only company on the planet that will be making 28nm parts, and Nvidia's 28nm parts should have absolutely no trouble matching a card using 250~ watts and only provides 20% more performance than a GTX 580. Nvidia is so close to the 7970's performance that it...
