True, but look at the time scale differece between the launch of the 4890 and the 5850 compared to the GTX 285 and the 470.

Never ceases to amaze me that this benchmark is fact by the ATI girls, but when there is a benchmark posted that shows the 480 being 20-30% faster, its fake.
That's because there is no solid benchmarks around atm.

Price in Euros and benchmark with Gulftown.
So do they appear for sale at midnight on the 25th?

Yeh maybe someone from OcUK can comment on this, I don't want to stay up all night for no reason!
fermi was meant to be out ages ago, they havent made it better in the last 6 months, they just got it so they can produce a few. Also having to lower its spec etc, meaning the margines are smaller than they had original set out to achieve.

(8)Whoaaaahoaaaa, my fermi's on fire!(8)
Yes.
I have. But then again It's pretty hard to beat my gpus without going crossfire, which would mean id need a new mobo, so i may as well then get an i7 :/
And nda is lifted on 26th march. so friday is when I will laugh at everyone, or cry, or cry from laughter, or something. At least I have a 1.5 hours massage booked in at the end of the day so whatever happens, ill end up relaxed.
then why have people been so stagnant in their decisions ?
the whole point isnt for technologies sake its for gaming fun right ?

What benchmarks are you talking about exactly ?
The ones from He xus that were posted yesterday or the day before with the Far Cry 2 and dirt 2 benchmarks.
Nope. Maybe people have been waiting to see if there is anything worth upgrading to ( i.e. giving a big enough jump in performance). I know i am. I want a new single GPU but i want something that is going to give me a valuable enough increase in performance from my GTX 275 to justify it. At the moment the 5870 isnt quite there for me.
If Fermi isnt big enough a jump as well then i guess i will just wait for ATI's 6 series.

the ones from h e x u s came directly from nvidia, h e x u s themselves said not being sure about the validity of them
You should post them up and argue why you think they are real, instead of making random posts with nothing to back it up.
I will be astonished if the GTX480/GTX470 doesn't hammer the 5870 and 5850 into next week. Looking at the cores side by side ( and forgetting about Nvidia's monumental cockup ) a GTX480 should give the 5970 a hard time.
