Theres a russian guy who makes a slipstream pack for w7 thats pretty nice. I wonder if MS will do a final update release for 7 or not. http://forum.oszone.net/thread-257198.html

You can put the blame for DX10 and DX10.1 firmly at Nvidias feet. Their cards could NOT do the original DX10 spec and they begged/bribed MS to nerf the spec. And thus DX10 became a farce.

Fuck EA. Twice... just cos they wiped out Origin Systems and now use Origin as their spyware infested steam copy.

urm... wasnt part of microns filing that UMC were using the SAME internal project names as micron used? ./beardstroke... walks like duck, talks like duck... proberbly stolen duck.

Looked to me like there was a huge electrical arc to the rocket as it lifted off, followed by a fire onboard then the explosion.

just watch out for stinkers like these cards... http://www.hexus.net/tech/news/graphics/116939-nvidia-geforce-gt-1030-cards-using-ddr4-ram-spotted/

where have we heard of this before... oh yeah solder gate... colour me unsurprised.

Its landed on Hexus now. http://www.hexus.net/business/news/components/116066-report-raises-concerns-nvidia-geforce-partner-program/

if you bothered to read previous reviews you should know that Kyle and Brett dont do the PR shill crap. They always have told it like it is.

given Nvidias bitching about the 28nm process and "blaming" them for their issues. I HIGHLY doubt Kepler will be a) on time (its already slipped) and b) competitive. It seems PR ppl run Nvidia now and not the engineers. Which is a real shame cos it would provide some interesting competition...

Open Physics... or forget it. This propriatary crap needs to go. It makes it totally bloody pointless otherwise. Either do it right and allow it on both card ranges or devs wont code it. (except with cash bribes) And when they do... its oh wow.... paper blowing in wind. Joy. Physx = Pr = A...

Thank you Kyle and Brent. Can finally stop some idiots bleeting "Its awesome." Its late. Hot. Expensive. LOUD. Roll on Fermi2. In the mean time. I'm saving for a 58xx :P

reviews then. Cards in april. Thou Fudzilla says maybe late as June? Seriously. These guys need to pick a fracking date and stick to it. NV is gonna be 9 months late and no baby still soon.

I dont know about you... but anything over 1kw i dont want in my system. The whole point of smaller faster systems was to stop the omg power suckage. As was pointed out earlier in the thread, once you hit 1.2kw you are getting near the draw for a 15a household line. To be quite honest...

A complete redesign. oh and now the date slips again. April 12th now instead of the 6th for mass availablity. Are we sure that the Phantom dudes arent working for NV PR now?

BFG Europe goes under right before launch? ouch.

Say what you like about charlie. Personally I rather enjoyed his articles constantly proving NV PR as liers and cheats. NV certainly like to pull the same stunts. Intel cartoons anyone? It helped me get my laptop fixed despite them claiming it was "not their fault". I'd love to know what...

so what part of 8 months late did u miss? you do NOT miss the Xmas rush with out a DAMN good reason. Nor do you miss a MAJOR software release (win7). Thats 2 serious snafus. I dont care if you think Fermi runs like shit off stick and cool as a night breeze. Missing those deadlines is a major...

How about the fact is 8 months late, running too hot (Already one major buyer "Oak Ridge" has dumped them), is on 3rd A revision already, B1 being done (If Kyle's heard it and feels confident to say that I believe him). 40nm process has leakage problems. ATI adapted. NV didnt. They tried...

Wrong. Nv begged MS to cripple DX10 as their cards couldnt do the full DX10 original spread. This resulted in DX10 being laughable. They couldnt even get the damn vista drivers sorted properly hence the backtracking on removing video drivers from the core proper. The sooner NV stops PRing its...

voltage tweak? Hmm... thats gonna break the 300W standard. Bye bye warrenties.

Lets see... Screwed up with Dx10. Have only JUST got with the plan and released DX10.1 cards. (all rebranded). FAILED. Yes FAILED horribly to deliver DX11 cards. Screwed up their 40nm push. (Way too hot. Shitty yeilds. Piss poor execution). This is what happens when PR overrules...

so nothing out of the norm then. Smoke mirrors fud and still nothing substantial. When they acutally have retail cards being tested (and more than likely laughed at) then i might actually look at them. This "Hyping" has totally killed ANY respect i've had for NV. It started with...

And i'll be marrying virgin twins who service my every desire in the morning... /deep sarcasm. NV are screwed this year and they know it.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100220/ap_on_hi_te/us_laptops_spying_on_students_18 And now the fbi gets involved.

Helllloooo 1984. And ppl wonder why i am extremely critical of gov databases and lying politicians. Hell even the police here are breaking the law right now. Currently if you are arrested and then released without charge they are suppost to delete/wipe fingerprints/records. They arent and...

and having just posted that... i've got extreme dejavu... now... do i search the thread to find out if i posted this earlier? or shall i just have another drink to massage the braincells...

Actually one little addition. If you run the bootsect line from your CDROM and point it at your flashdrive, you wont get the Drive locked error. Eg: H:\boot>bootsect /nt60 h: Target volumes will be updated with BOOTMGR compatible bootcode. H...

Well when we see some cards and benchmarks maybe we'll believe NV... However given recent activities... I'll be sat here with a jar of salt...

Very shiny. Def count me in... /me hopes you ship to the UK :P

ultimately it comes down to trust and not treating your consumers like idiots. Lying to us pisses us off. (There is nothing wrong with our laptops. Whoops. Yes there are.) Treating us like idiots with rebrands instead of delivering new technology. Being spiteful and actively disabling...

Kyle, I know this works full screen wonderfully, any possiblity of you testing with windowed mode? I run Eve-Online with 2 clients and the ablity to drop clients across that display and have forums and TS running as well would be amazing. Currently with windowed you have to be very...

yep. rumor has it that Nv did not follow basic fabbing rules and so are suffering badly with their shrink. Given that they also did not follow packaging rules (skipped a layer hencing exascerbating the flexing when under a heat cycle) for laptop chipsets making it even worse, I can believe it...

oh and thats based on the squirming they are doing with TSMC btw and the issues with getting a proper 40nm node process running.

I'd be surprised if GT300 cards were available to retail before Q1 2010. Be close run thing if they have test cards to "review" before end of november. Its a damn good job Nv is working on cell phone chips cos they really have screwed up the gpu lines. Oh and if charlie is right and they...

Given the fact that nv's new cards are mainly OEM low end crap and the design issues they have been having? I dont believe you will have a new GT300 properly in shops till pushing 2ndQ next year, especially if the yeilds are this shit. This screams of fundemental design flaws. NV have made the...

Got MS to pull most of it making it a pointless exercise cos they couldnt get hardware working. Its also the reason the vista drivers got redone. (was suppost to be totally out of the core. NV couldnt get it sorted in time so MS "tweaked" it so they could do it) Intel and ATI got proper drivers...

Given that NV made DX10 a joke and is still messing about trying to get proper DX10.1 cards... I say little hope of a NV dx11 card before end of next year.

purdy lights! and very nice contrasts with the fan vs covers. Looking sharp. Damn nice modding.

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/07/22/windows_7_aug_rtm_family_pack/ hmm so 150quid.... (cos u know it will be 1:1) instead of me being able to buy it at USD prices with discount. Grr.
