That's it, folks. To believe? You decide: although *heavily biased* about the Green Goblin Team, they have been right lately. "4870 X2" all the way!

<dammit>*cough*... red pwnage... *cough*</dammit>

I'll wait for unbiased reports to make my own opinion here...

I really doubt everything said in that article is true.

The only thing I'll believe is the "no dual card". The card(s) are huge, there is no getting around that. Ape and others have talked about yields already, so I think it will be a LONG time before we see any dual GPU cards. (not to mention the power and heat issues...)

For me, there aren't enough performance numbers there to judge anything. Keep waiting for the launch and look at real numbers. I'm more interested in the parts availability myself. If the card is so huge, and the yields are so bad, can Nvidia do anything about this other then scrap it and move on to the next big thing?

Or we could just wait like one more week and get the real reviews??? No offense but wasn't it rumored way back when that the 2900XT was going to "pwn" the old 8800GTX and Ultra?????

Yeah, it's just speculation, but that's the point. Since TheINQ hasn't been invited to Nvidia's events lately they have become quite biased about them, however, I think they have improved a lot their news regarding both Nvidia/DAMMIT. They also were some of the first who talked about the cards' final specs and also about Larrabee.

I usually don't get into the hype, however, this time I guess it would be better for all of us if Nvidia got some spanking. They have been sitting on their arses lately, shouting about Intel and the world while selling gimmick cards with poor driver support. Not to mention the DX 10.1 fiasco.

My oh My. What a terrible author.

I would fire him on the spot.
Does not matter if his numbers are correct or wrong.

As a reporter you are supposed to be unbiased, which with their name calling they clearly are not.

As a result, I don't beleive the numbers due to their apparent extreme disdain for NVIDIA.

Second, Even if they are correct and good numbers, they lose credibility due to the authors attitude.

If he had just feigned impartiality, it would have been much better.

Clearly a site with little integrity or good editorial control.

You know this is a BIT OT but I read theinquirer.net for articles written like this, but was realy dissapointed to hear that Charlie Demerjian was going to start writing for Tom's. This guy is the BIGGEST ATI FAN BOY EVER! I mean 5 page rants about Nvida from Charlie are not rare...

*Disclaimer*Now Im not an Nvidia fanBOI*Disclaimer*

... I personally would love ATI to have the performance crown SO I can DUMP this terrible Nforce boards (cause I run Sli and would Run Xfire) with TRASH SATA controllers that peak out at 120ish MB/s on HDD transfers (4xraptors in raid0)
http://www.tomshardware.com/review [...] 40-20.html
This has been the case for EVERY Nforce board.
I just want a non bais objectional article when I come to Tom's Unfortunatly I think Toms has taken a SERIOUS decline since the sale and website revamp. I use to allmost read every article that was featured in the Main flash slide show. Now I maybe read one per week.

I personally think there is alot of BS flying around the web about this launch. I mean this for both sides ATI and Nvidia. Shader numbers changing, numerous photo-chopped GPU-Z screenies... Now this isnt abnormal for a launch but It just seems like alot of the media is spinning it any which way they can to go into a fanBOI rant *Chime in*Charlie Demerjian*Chime in*

But the HD2900 does beat the 8800GTX and Ultra... in 3D mark that is.

Also I remember how the Inq warned us about how bad the 8 series were when compared with the HD2/3 series, how nice of them to point us in the right direction again.

LOL I'd love to see someone put together a little timeline track-record for The Inq which just listed when they made estimates and how wrong they were.

I'm basically a nVidia fanboy...at least right now, since they are king...but yea, this review seems extremely biased!

You must either be British or do some research about British tabloids before you flame TheINQ: they're supposed to be biased. That's the fun and humour of the website - even if it hurts your heart. You have thousands of "standard news sites" around the web and if these guys have something to say they just say it right away.

Look at all this in a positive way guys. These writers could have gone religious and claimed the world would have ended yesterday, like that guy in Texas. At least people that believe most of this tripe wont lose their homes, wives and sometimes their lives

Hey, Jaydee! What's up, man? Here's some new drivers for you:

Yea dude. I mean, EVERYBODY read the INQ just for the fun of it!! How about that article 4-5 years ago predicting Intel runninf it's pentium 4 line at speeds of 10-12 GHz?? Hahaha! Still laughing from that article...

Ive read it, and ty. Im going folding again!!!!!
