I really dont wonna offend you with this but it is simply stupid to claim that a company with 2007 turnover of 7 bilion USD would really have to use primary school style presentation about a product as a marketing tool.

Really man posting funny results from other pages is ok and some news about products but this thing stinks a mile away. And the fact that you as a news editor are pushing this to be a hard fact ads more bad taste into it.

If you believe it its OK but for me its really a lot of laughs that you think they need to download techpowerup charts with 3dmark results to show ASUS,Gigabyte etc that their multimilion dollar chip is better than ATI :laugh:

thing is - nVidia has a long history of using other people's work for their marketing propaganda, from GPU performance, right down to GPU work load capabilities (anyone remember their F@H presentations? Whose images and results were they using? Same for PhsyX . . .). ATI, although just as bad about using other source's reviews/info, will at the very least set their marketing department to make their propaganda look professional, and presentable.

Just because it looks like the work of a kiddy-gardener doesn't meant it's not official.


Funny how you can't even do basic maths.

- 19.2 FPS / 16.1 FPS * 100 = 119.254% <------ The 8800 GT IS 19.2 faster there.

- NOW 16.1 / 19.2 * 100 = 83.854% >>> 100 - 83.8 = 16.2% <------ THE HD4830 IS 16.2% SLOWER in that benchmark.

Not that this has anything to do with the points being made in the thread, BUT LEARN MATHS before bashing anyone for something that's not truth. Check your facts before spilliing out BS like the one above. It's just embarrasing.



Thanks for the correction - but keep it a little more "tounge-in-cheek" next time, eh? It's not like crunching effin' percentages is a 24/7 routine for me, and with my head all wrapped up in the effin' calculus I've been getting schooled in for the last 3 months, sometimes that BASIC SHIT slips my effin 'mind.


Although I happened to calculate the percentage of increase, that's still better than most people can effin remember.

I know.... thats one of the reasons I think it isn't legit. Also the first slide is rebadged from a presentation about six months ago on the companies website.

Haha, I find this funny...

Negative advertisement should be banned and illegal...

So Nvidia, how do you feel about your re-bagged 8800GT trying to sell more of the same old dated card?
