hey man i was feeling the same but think about it, even if it is a guaranteed killer, real world apps may only see a 3-4fps increase, maybe not even that. i dont think we're gonna see gts-gtx FPS gaps, or even gtx-ultra gaps. just a slight increase in performance.

benching could be a different story, but we all know benching barely reflects real-world performance from the GPU, where it really matters. dont kid yourself, you have a good card there.

PS. i love could weather cold wind blowing in the window, case door open, my CPU is idling @ 35c.

Always trust the first Chinese benchmarks you see Especially no one else has any benchmarks yet.

I'm Chinese, and let me just say this. If we can make fake eggs that are identical to real ones, we can get some benchies on a card before it's out.

i don't think he's china bashing. i think it's more "let's get more than 1 source on this before we come to conclusions". multiple tests with same results are harder to discount than a single test is all i'm saying...

What Firestorm is saying.

Although China has been flooding the market with some very unsafe stuff recently. Fake toothpaste with chemicals, children's toys with lead paint, and some sort of medication that does quite a bit more harm than good.

Wasn't bashing the country as a whole though, but rather that often times there will be a review for a new product that pops up, usually false, simply for the ad revenue.

LMAO I was just thinking how it's odd that they always get the benchmarks and samples first, probably since they have a bunch of samples there to eventually be put into production even though companies AMD, ATI, Nvidia, etc.... are based in North America.
