R600 Release date

You mean it actually exists? I thought it was just a marketing ploy to stop people from buying nvidia cards until ATI could put something on the market.... ;)

[/satire]

Seriously though, I heard mid to late may, but don't take my word for it.

That's sarcasm not satire :)
 
These thread titles are misleading. I actually thought there was a set release date...AT LAST!!!
But, surprise, surprise, just another forum user trying to know when will it be released.

To the OP:

Next time, put a question mark at the end of the thread title :)
 
I have it on good authority that it shall see retail shelves between now and when DNF goes gold.
 
Breaking News: Al Gore has protested R600, claiming it uses too much electricity, genrates too much heat and speeds up global warming. He threatened making a documentary feature about the card. He said "You owe it to your children and grandchildren not to buy this card. Especially people who consider crossfire are traitors."

ATI is reconsidering releasing the card. New estimates show the card won't be released before 2009.

hahahahaha. Wow if they don't they will be so far behind nvidia. :rolleyes:

* I know that its a joke come down...*
 
Rumor has it that it will be a dual release with the AMD Barcelona cpu so its hard to tell when that will be. From what I understand it was supposed to be this past Jan. or Feb sometime. If its such a killer card and ready to go I don't see why AMD/ATI would withhold it but then again I'm not on the board! :) Hopefully it will be the big nasty it is proclaimed to be.

Watch out for ManBearPig, too!:eek:
 
I just want to see some current real game benchies with it vs both the 8800 series and last gen's cards...just to tide me over.
 
the R600 is going to go the way of DukeNuk'em Forever...... forever delayed!
