Hello people I've been a keen follower of most of the discussions on THG in the past several months regardin the R600 (aka 2900 series) and 8XXX series from Nvidia.
And what I want to comment is that we are becoming increasingly wishfull in out hopes. More and more people are putting all their eggs on one basket even before we've seen any kind of credible benchies. When we really think about it how can anybody say anything regaring how R600 would perform against say the 8900 or the 8800Ultra, cos both cards are even not released for testing, all we have is some chineese sites and the occasional Turkish site. WTF?? How can a Turkish site put out any benchies when even THG can't find a test sample?? The turks over their must be laughing from both ends at us when we continusly refer to their bogus site over and over again like madmen.
So people a quick reality check plz.
 
What's your point?

the point is, that we have become like soooooo childish that we debate and flame others and go all huff-puff over nothing. We go in to it so blindly that we will argue with a another "ancient poster" or a "forum relic" just based over some news that some body had said he saw on some site in some language that somebody else translated as meaning some thing close to......... and the list goes on.

Come on guys, lets wait till some actual benchies and some actual pics come out, before passing judgment on anything.

Trouble is, that's less fun. Constant bickering and debates on here give us something to do, it's entertaining. Most people know nothing is sure until we see benchmarks anyway.
