GeForce GTX 590 Key Features Revealed

Great, its fake Fermi guy come to tell lies again :rolleyes:

They have been working on the card for two years... Fingers crossed this is a non Fermi based card then, but I have a feeling the most interesting thing in that ammo box is his lunch.

Hmmm

"hi this is tom peterson with nvidia
and i cant tell you whats going on inside this box right now but its a top secret project that we've been working on for the last two years. Its our next generation highest performance graphics card and if you come back real soon i will tell you the details of not just whats in this box but its great for and what makes it the best graphics card we've ever built"

well i cant see any lies there unless your counting the "i cant tell you whats in this box" ... "its our next generation highest performance graphics card" hold on tom i thought you couldn't tell us :D

you do know that it takes several years to research, design and build modern GPU's don't you ? even for your beloved AMD.
 
Well I think it's the 590 still, he says its been in dev for two years but that's bull, he really means it's been two years since their last dual GPU the 295.

You really don't remember his last statements and stunts ?
 
"I can't tell you what's in this box." - If it's a 590 that wouldn't be new news. Everyone and their grandmother knows its coming on the 24th
"Top secret project we've been working on for two years" - Doesn't sound like the 590 there.
"It's our next-generation highest performance graphics card" - GTX 590 is current gen, not next gen.

Yep, sounds like it's the Kepler announcement. WOuld make sense if they announce Kepler with the GTX 590 release. Two-punch marketing ploy to get more ppl to go "Oh wow NVIDIA" and buy the GTX 590 (along with white underpants with the green NV logo emblazoned on it, to contrast against some of you fanbois over here who have wear the red ATI ones... You know who you are.)

Unless the guy is jerking us around in which case Imma take a plane to America and bust a cap in his ass
 
Remember that rumour that for every few hundred or so Fermi chips one hit full spec ?

Maybe Nvidia have saved up all them gems and finally have an ammo box full :p

Cant you just take a gun into the office and tell Tom to open the box ? ;):p

Hardly seems worth it over the 580 judging from that, depends on the price, but honestly, 13 whole FPS on Crysis over a 580 for potentially an extra £200? OH WOW, let me grab 2 of them.
 
hehe you just have to love advertising.

only posted here because we've been talking about some of the fastest cards around, I hadn't noticed this ad before and it made me chuckle.
