Could this turn into a PS3 like thing?

People get fed up of waiting and go off with an G80 instead?

Yeah turning into Vapourwear like X18XX series

Delaying its release is annoying, but hopefully the product will be that much sweeter for them doing so

I quite honestly do not think the delay is due to "improvementS", I think ATI are having some problems

Yield wise?

Yield wise?

Who knows...plus AMD wouldn't even say if I asked I wouldn't expect.

But they've had the final spin and it's been taped out for some time so one has to wonder why a company would delay a launch of a product that will make them a lot of money doesn't one?

 

[PV5150]

Agreed! Don't you just love speculation rofl

i heard the probs they have is with the cooler and power consumption , trying to reduce it

Either that or they found out about Nvidias 8900s and want to make it better before launch?

Theoreticaly, according to that the 8900GTX should pwn it?

Don't listen to charts and cr@p people post. Wait for the reviews to come, then you'll know
