Great first post:thumbsup:
I like him already.:biggrin:
It's over, Nvidia is finished.
1 post and NV is finished. LOL you an AMD lurker?
I love the Irony.
Has anyone ever been banned over a first post?

Exactly, they bought AMD

Nvidia wishes they could buy AMD. Then they wouldn't desperately be trying their hand at ARM CPUs. A completive field where Nvidia will lose out to the other ARM venders for some time. Not to mention Intels Oaktrail Atom CPUs are top notch just as AMDs Bobcat CPUs.
But NV stands no chance of buying AMD, simply because they dont have that much cash. The market value of AMD is to high.
As long as they come before BF3 I'm happy.
What makes you think that it's going to be anything special System-load wise? It's going to be a PS3/X360 game as well so don't get your hopes up like a lot of people did for Crysis 2.

NV can easily buy AMD by leveraging the purchase price through an LBO. The real reason the transaction would not be completed is because it would not pass regulatory approval due to monopolistic dominance (also I don't think the x86 CPU license would be transferable). Anyone who thinks NV is "done" because AMD is going to release 28nm GPUs is just being gullible/uninformed. NV sells GTX580s for $500 (not to mention their Tesla and Quadro lines). The company's financial position is far superior to AMD's. They could sell 580s for $300 and still make $$$. Also, NV will have their 28nm offerings to compete with AMD. In fact, AMD's stock performance in the last 10 years is a negative return to the investor. I have heard the same story when Fermi was released (and even then NV's profit margins easily surpassed AMD's). The bottom line is NV's stock has resulted in a ~60% upside in the last 10 years vs. -67% for AMD.
Could we see the 1st 1ghz GPU from the factory or a 1024SP Kepler? Would be awesome.
Wow really? The said thing is you're serious. :thumbsdown:
Right now you can get the 590 for ~650-700ish, which is like getting 2 580s for 325 each (if you OC).
Cause its built from the ground up to support DX10/11. There isnt even a DX9 path.
Anyway, I have a hard time balieving 28nm will be ready for mass production by Q2. Also Im really looking forward to 28nm. Seems like it will really let AMD and nV strech their legs. Could we see the 1st 1ghz GPU from the factory or a 1024SP Kepler? Would be awesome.
Yep. This Fall.[Guru3D]AMD Radeon 7000 series coming in Q2?
