Who Has the money on the side for fermi and is getting it 100000% as soon as its released..

I have waited so long i can care less about price or benchmarks im getting it.

NO BASHING PLEASE LETS KEEP THIS THREAD OPEN.

 

[Hey Zeus]

480 all the way baby UNLESS i can find a cheap asus 5870

probably mostly fan boys, or people that use CUDA (folders for example).

Most people will wait and see benchmarks as to how it compares to the 5*** series to decide. Would be irrational to do otherwise without a good reason

Edit: Added bold for people with a low reading comprehension level

Im pretty sure the OP is just talking in a general sense....How would buying a fermi card make someone a fanboy(was there a date on the OP I missed)?

Enjoy that ati card.

Edit: As for me...Ill probably be switching back, just depends on certain things the cards have to meet for me to buy one.

I'll be passing the FERMI release. Last time I bought a DirectX launch card was the 8800GTX for $500, I learned my lesson haha. Will probably upgrade to Dx11 when it proves that it won't flop like Dx10 did.

That looks to me like "As soon as it's released"

The second sentence is even more interesting

No, I said that buying it as soon as it's released would be irrational. An act of a fanboy. Until there is proper benchmarks

Thanks, I'll enjoy my card, it has no bearing on how I feel about Fermi though

Guess I should have know people wouldn't properly read something when I posted that though

 

[windfire]

To me, Fermi is for sure. But I am not in a hurry. I want to see some benchmarks. And since I can wait a while, I am more inclined to get the GTX495 (hopefully right after summer). If it will not come, GTX480 is the one to buy.

Really?

Some People just like to try out new stuff..And or they have a Preference for their own reasons. Neither of which Has anything to do with being a "Fanboy"

As for who has money for the option to get one...People have had a long time to save

 

[detroitpc313]

I know alot people are waiting for it im surprised bby the poll how many people are actually going to get it.

 

[Anth0789]

I'm going to wait for a few reviews and maybe ill get a GTX 480.

 

[TheOcelot]

I like voting :3

 

[Contagion]

I am going to try my hardest to pick up a 470 on the day of release.
Should be fun.

 

[goobergump]

I expect to see some of you people put up your old cards in the for sale section!

The 26th is a school day too. But yeah, on the 25th I will stay up all night and start auto refreshing newegg at around 11:45 at night.

 

[Ocnewb]

I will try to get some (hopefully 3) GTX480 if i could. After that, they will go straight onto Eb..

After making some profit (i hope), i will buy a GTX470 for myself...teehee..

 

[jarble]
