Regarding charlie if u spread loads of BS over and over again u ought to be correct sometime right?
Charlie also had some incomprehensible, self-contradictory crap about how Kepler was fast only because of PhysX.
Probably one of the most useful anti-NV diatribes of his was bumpgate, which ended up being very real and very expensive for NV to settle out of court.
The problem is how can u trust a man like him?To be fair,i think he has his insiders.and he gets alot right.lots wrong too

If he says Kepler architecture is probably better than the scientist itself how can u be sure unless u actually see the reviews?:biggrin:
Kepler had dedicated PPU remember.

Sources tell SemiAccurate that the ‘big secret’ lurking in the Kepler chips are optimisations for physics calculations. Some are calling this PhysX block a dedicated chunk of hardware, but more sources have been saying that it is simply shaders, optimisations, and likely a dedicated few new ops. In short, marketing may say it is, but under the heat spreader, it is simply shaders and optimisations.
please...
what's wrong here?
where charlie was wrong here?
Why are you selectively quoting? Here's the entire Charlie rant: http://semiaccurate.com/2012/02/01/physics-hardware-makes-keplergk104-fast/
I stand by my comment. If you want to defend Charlie's rant go ahead. I won't argue with you, I will just laugh at you instead, and so will everyone else who reads Charlie's article and compares it to reality.
EDIT: From Blastincap's link, he says GK104 will go against Pitcairn, maybe end up a little faster
long time. On some games, GK104 will handily trounce a 7970, on others, it will probably lose to a Pitcairn. Does this mean it won’t actually do what is promised? No, it will. Is this a problem? Depends
I agree but i really don't understand all these terminology very much.I skipped most of the "finance and business accounting" classes during engineering May be a refresher course is in order
Charlie was also the one to report that Kepler would beat Tahiti on "every metric", months before anyone even had a clue, and everyone said he was just trolling because he hates Nvidia.

It's not like he is making all this up. Charlie has his sources --- sometimes he gets it right, sometimes he doesn't. When you dabble in the "unofficial" news like he does, you are never going to be 100% right, because if you were, then it really wouldn't be unofficial and someone would start to ask questions..
Um, do you know what "Every metric" actually means? Not just performance... Die size, power consumption, temperature.. Every metric! He was spot on. You can't spin it any other way..
Well thats the fun part of Charlie. He makes as many articles he needs to "be right". Then he can pick the one he needs. Because in another article it would barely compete with Pitcairn.
I can also make alot of articles about the same subject. Then take whatever of them is right and say. See I told you so, I´m always right!
