Galaxy Adding Wireless HD to GeForce GTX 460

That is awesome. Now that I think about it, im surprised this hasn't been done before now.

This is a hell yea thing, people will start asking where's the x-box or play station when playing games on the new LED LCD TV since there is no PC in the vicinity ..he he..

Sounds promising. what's the range on the wireless?

Wow all that data going through the air?! THROUGH OUR BRAINS! omg this is gonna cause cancer and brain tumours and all that bullshit people keep claiming happens when waves travel through our brains.

Heads up people, the Universe is pumping millions of Radio waves and other types of radiation through our head every millisecond, yet we're all fine =O.

This is an awesome idea btw, this is the future man. Love it, want it, can't afford it, damn it.

I love seeing little additions to cards like this. In today's market, both companies are so close (and I'm sure some fanboy will be more then happy to start a flame war after me stating that) that you almost can't lose when you choose a card. It's about what you can afford and whether you want to buy red or green. With these fun little additions to cards, it's makes it a much more interesting acquisition and, depending on the feature (3D, eyefinity, physx, etc) borderline demands the other company step up. Lets face it folks, for those of us that are tech fans (regardless if you have a loyalty or not), we're living in VERY exciting times. Cheers

I am willing to bet the cost of the thing isn't gonna make it any better than making a simple htpc, but who knows.

As long as the card and the wireless TV adapter aren't too outrageously priced I might have to look into something like this for my next build.

Wonder what console will be the first to adapt this newer technology, I for one would mind not having to plug up my xbox! How much will it cost I wonder? Amazing feature Im very excited to see the range, quality, and durability! Either way its cool to see it introduced it can only improve with time...

What about the audio?

As long as the latency lives up to what they've claimed and the range is good, then yes, this could be really something.

Yeah its only waves that require extreme precision that causes damage to our brains (cellphones) so local things like this shouldn't have long term effects.

good question +1 to you

Considering Asus' wireless 1080p kit that uses the same technology is meant to have an MSRP of $199, I'm guessing this will retail for about $420. It's certainly very interesting technology though, although chances are it'll be Christmas 2011 by the time this stuff becomes readily available to the consumer.

Good question. I guess that's the wire running from the PC to the receiver.... Under the TV. Hah!

You guys are actually both wrong. Electromagnetic radiation can only cause harm in humans if resonating at the same frequency. Since these types of waves have a much lower frequency and energy than lets say a x-ray that you get at the dentist, there is no harm at all. People also think cell phones cause harm. This is obviously not true and if you spend some time looking at research articles, you will find that the media is completely wrong. Most media outlets commonly get the higher sciences completely wrong, so its not surprising that most people think the same way.

*shrug* Computer in my room, HDTV and receiver with surround sound in living room. I've had my 50' HDMI cable from my video card and SPDIF optical for audio, and USB extender with wireless logitech keyboard and mouse for a year and a half

Works great!

the 50' cables can be found for really cheap on sale or in special cable stores online.

Hell, its about time !!! Cables are old !!!

well hdmi transmits both video and audio so it would be a safe bet to assume it would transfer both, my current card transfers my video and audio thru hdmi so I expect it to do same otherwise the whole convenience aspect is ruined!

Those antennaes look imposing!

All is good till some kid gets a jamming device that blocks out the signal.

Amazing addition here. If this comes in at a low enough price point, building a custom HTPC will become harder to justify.

wireless on a video card? ohh I never thought of that.

Oh shyt! This was gonna be my entrepeneurial idea from which i was gonna become a millionair when I graduate from uni

One cable down, about 20 more to go.

Now i just want wireless power perfected. so my System can sit in the center of my room, a Looming featureless monolith to be feared by all who enter.

anyone else?

It´s been year since i thought about if for the first time ... Right now we have enough technology to upgrade everything to Wireless, what´s the point in using cables ? $$$ ?

Well, it probably works the same way as hdmi (audio+video on the same cable), specially if the wireless dongle is to be used in the hdmi port.

cable is still fastest wireless would be bottlenecked

Bottlenecks assume a greater need than required. If we can wirelessly send data according to spec, there is no bottleneck.

Just need wireless audio, and power. I'm not really into wireless technology. However, when completely wireless builds are available, I will take interest. For now though, I'll just stick to my wires.
