    You can take my comment at face value, regrettably.

    Well if CB's leaked Mark 06 is ligit ,then Horray Nvidia has the fastest single GPU , till ATI releases their refreshes..Kudos 4 Nvidia taking a half year to get it at what 10% gain..

    Not 4 nothing but this is not helping lower prices 4 us....[thumbdown]

    But I'll take this instead:

    Most of us, looking forward to see DX11 performance so 3DMark06 is irrelevant for new/future games, unless some want to play old games forever. [yes]

    I hear ya on new games and DX11 ,4 u young folks..But 4 me I like 2 keep up on new tech in here (been onion looong while)..Nvidia 2 me is still gambling on Dev's picking up the whole feature set of this new tech they have , I can be wrong no doubt but not happening..IMO..And 3D mark is not what it used 2 be true strike,games tell better story.

    But not 2 be a Red team Fanboy ( I love Canadians and their country) but they are breathing easy ATM ,and have feature sets that are going 2 be implemented into future Dev's agendas,could be wrong,Bro...

    In 2003 NVIDIA gave Anandtech only one weekend...Superbowl weekend...to benchmark and write a review for the GeForce FX. It made such a (negative) impression they had to mention it four years later in the AMD Barcelona CPU review.

    It can be concluded from the article that reviewers don't have cards. The cards were expected to come from the AIBs, but the AIBs wouldn't even have cards until next week to pass on to reviewers so NVIDIA will distribute the cards instead.

    Ok, good news (kinda) it seems that most media will have their cards within the next 2-3 days. And by 'most' I mean a relatively small number of sites. It's unclear at this point since some of the larger sites are fighting for multiple samples for SLI testing & etc.

    It was a similar problem with the GeForce 7800 GTX and 8800 GTX respectively, although not to the same extent as the FX and, apparently, the GTX 400 boards.

    And 8800GTX showed to be one of the best Nvidia card (ATI couldnt respond for a long time)
