I'm bored and i thought i'd make a comment on this dead topic. Yes, a bunch of enthusiast are extremely pissed at nVidia right now, being a nVBoy,I wish i could jump out and prove u all wrong, but i can't. nVidia is doing something i call, produce cheap,sell expensive~~ now phial, that mean they take little money to make something and they charge an arm for it. That's their marketing strategy, believe or not, it works.
Now Kyle in [H] says "NVIDIA needs to fess up to their actions publicly. NVIDIA needs to apologize for their actions publicly. NVIDIA needs to spell out the corrections they are going to make publicly. NVIDIA needs to make the community aware of the optimizations they will make that affect benchmark scores in games and synthetics. NVIDIA needs to treat the community with the respect they deserve. If they do not, the enthusiast community needs to go spend their money with the competition and urge all the people that ask them for buying advice to do the same. "
The thing is, why on Earth would nVidia do that, like i said, in the computing world there are 100 times the amount of stupid people over smart ones. nVidia doesn't need to tell the stupid people "WE ARE CRAPPY, DONT BUY OUR STUFF"
The other thing is about the whole cheating issue. I stand by my point i made back then. If i can achieve good performance, why not cheat? Besides like some dude here said. ATi's cheating too, so why isn't anyone pissed at them??? Oh cause they only did a little "optimization" well tell me something. What the differences in an SAT exam to cheat on one question and get caught and cheat on 10 questions and get caught. YOU GET ZERO!!! I can't believe people dont understand this. Also Kyle said nVidia should admit that their cheating, would u admit u cheated on a SAT exam if u knew if u dont fess up, u'll get away with it?
well that's my 2.6 cents
