So CES has started!!!!!

For anyone that doesn't know what CES is... GTFO.. only joking

The "Consumer Electronics Show" is a yearly event held at Las Vegas where all the top manufacture announce, show off and reveal all their new and upcoming products such as TVs, PCs, GPUs, CPUs mobile phones etc etc.

CNET does a live stream for all the events and key notes from all the manufacturers as well as behind the scenes chat and discussion about the products being announced.

Nvidia's press conference is at midnight btw for anyone that will be up at that time. Whether they will talk about Kelper though I don't know.

 

[SieB]

No kelper just Tegra and tablets

Oh well hopefully there will be some leeks

Thank you so much for sharing this.

Well that was underwhelming to say the least

Wasn't awake at midnight so I'm kinda glad nothing was shown, but kinda sad as well at the same time as well.

Pretty disappointing this year compared to last year at CES. Last year there was Sandy Bridge, the 580 and quite a few other things. The best things this year have been the 3D printer and LG's 55" OELD TV.

Yeah i think the LG screens was best news also. Tv/monitors with almost no frames is great for multiple screens set ups. No great news from Nvidia yet?

No news from Nvidia but I think the Kelper stuff was for press only, hopefully we will get some leeks if there was a press only showing.

The fact that they didn't reveal anything to the public though either means the cards aren't ready yet or they are keeping something secret. Personally I don't think the cards are ready yet.

Personally I don't think the cards are ready yet.  

I hope you're right - let AMD have a bit of time in the spotlight. Its nice to have something positive to say about them.

Yeah we will just have to see what happens.
