I didn't get told directly, I wouldn't go discussing ATi to Nvidia employees, at an Nvidia event
. As I said in the Reflect on Life thread, I overheard two of them talking about it

Gooberman's right. I posted about the delay the same day the article was up on Muropaketti. And I also posted the day before you posted.

Why not? They can talk within earshot of others but only amongst themselves??

Because they were talking about when the 6950 and 6970 were going to be released.
And I did post in the 6xxx thread after that, before you made a new thread about the news.

Seeing as how a 6870 meets/beats a 5850, if the performance difference is the same as it was between the mid-high 5xxx cards and the high 5xxx cards (ie 5770 to 5870), a 6970 won't be beating an Ares, but it will be only maybe 10-15% less performance, but of course with only 1 GPU, so less power and less heat. When they bring out your multi GPU 6xxx cards, the ares will be obsolete

yes, although a single 6870 isn't as powerful as a single 5870, the 6xxx cards scale much, much better than the 5xxx, so you get better performance, with weaker cards, in multiple GPU setups
also, there is an edit button to add to/change your post, so no need to be double posting

While we all like our high end cards, what kind of case will they need? Cards are getting HUGE. why not make them wider, instead of longer?
Anyways, is there any word on the lower and midrange cards?

Less stream processors, single gpu, hmm I dunno... Maybe if it's a huge price leap between 5970's.

the 6970 does not replace the 5970, it replaces the 5870,the 6990 replaces the 5970.
