Of course BF3 would play horrible on a 6750 lol...the 67xx are like low-mid range GPUs. If you wanted decent play, I'd at least go with a 6870.

Well had i known anything about gfx cards (and cpu's for that matter) when i was building my pc i definitely would've gone intel + nvidia....instead i have a phenom ii 965 and a nearly worthless hd 6750 (booooo red!!!!) and to be fair the phenom ii isn't horrible... it's just not an intel, and the gfx card is good for a budget gamer...but not if you want to get fat from eye candy!!!

No people will pay for the performance, it's not nV's fault their mid-range chip may end up competing with AMD high-end.

Excuse me sir, where's nvidia's high-end? LOL

I really think this round of gfx cards are little 'offerings'. AMD saying, "oh looky at our new compute stuff" and NV saying, "oh looky at our new efficient card". I think Q4 2012 will be when the real shit hits the fan and both camps make tweaks and redesigns that establish their proper power play.

just thought id extract the most sensical statement in this whole thread:D +1imho

and in NV's case work right

1 nvidia yield issues rumour
2 tsmc shuts 28nm since feb (when kepler was running batches)
3 nvidia anounce clock BOOST feature (up from friggin 750:eek: :wtf:to who knows but probably varies dep on card /asic(many,many profiles stated),worst case:twitch:)
4 GK110 is now nowhere in sight and rumours suggest this(GK104) is better in compute only by a margin on the 7970 ,one game Bf3 is quicker big deal, ill bet unigene 3 runs well on em too:D

im not expecting many of anything NV, and new, in any shops anytime soon imho thats v bad since they touted themselves to be stocking up ready for a non paper launch , eagerly awaiting that review wizz:)
