Advertising cards that aren't even announced?

[FML1990]

How come OCUK are advertising cards that haven't even been announced?

And better yet, doing a god awful job on photoshop.

as just one of the examples. But it looks like most cards that aren't reference have the same crap photoshop on them.

It says at the bottom:

small print and all

More to the point why do manufacturers think that one single tiny fan will be of any use in cooling 250TDW

How to be no.1
Beat the announcements and become the announcer yourself.

I know what I am doing, OcUK is always no.1 when releasing new product on VGA, being doing it for years and all the products do exist, as I have product codes and costings. Just some manufacturers have not yet sent me their official artwork but its not difficult to photoshop a TI on the box and I was by no way trying to make it a good job.

The only card I did not list which I have info on is EVGA FTW3, SC and Black Edition due to an agreement between myself and the owner of EVGA. We shall launch together, but I am trying to convince him to go earlier, so watch this space.
