Maybe because they said they would?
If by Christmas they don't have the new cards and Crossfire up and running - Ati will likely drop out of the high end market.
Christmas??!?! LOL "Be calm- we'll have product this year yet! There are 11 weeks to go before we should OFFICIALLY consider it a "paper lauch" or "problem" because we all know the only deadline they have to meet is Santa's!"
On the other hand if by Christmas they have the r580 and crossfire on the shelves - they will own the high end market.
Why? Because Santa has an exclusive deal with Orton?
Kris Kringle: Now Dave, you know the boys and girls are expecting a fast video card this Christmas! Don't make me shop in America! Hohohoho!
David Orton: Don't you worry Santa! This years R300 has SM3 and the TAA we've been holding back since last year!"
Likely neither scenario will happen - anyways we will soon see what their mid range can do. I certainly hope it doesn't flop - as I would just have to buy an xbox and dump computer gaming. Would be difficult to buy a card reccommended by the troll.
LOL
So you would give up computer gaming and go console because of your dislike of me or nVidia? LOL again.
