Yet another cardboard-launch.

The boxes are empty.

In my opinion, we need a comprehensive cardboard box benchmark for fermi's various packaging jobs.

What's Inno-3d, I'm in the US. Why do I notice that all the cards require more than 1.2 GBs of VRAM.

This is turning into the episode of Spongebob where he and patrick ordered a big-creen television just to play inside the box.

 

[sykologic]

Monster unleashed upon the world!

 

[cheepstuff]

i agree with redux

anyway, we need some benchmarks...

 

[ds1495]

Ok, this is starting to get a little ridiculous. We don't care about the boxes, we care about performance!

I don't recall ever seeing endless "stories" about the ATI 5870 boxes pre-launch...So why is this so important?

 

[p1n3apqlexpr3ss]

Empty boxes? or actually packaged, good to ship to vendors?

Hmmmm....I agree with you!

 

[tipmen]

With all this hype they better preform well.

I am actually glad nvidia has taken so long to get these cards out. Otherwise I wouldn't have bought an ATI card and found the joys of Eyefinity.

This is probably the best box art I've seen for Fermi. I am just waiting to see the price and their benchmarks. So exciting, I hope when I get Fermi, I can actually play most games in 3D, including and not limited to Crysis lol.

 

[z0d]

I wonder if it has free 3D glasses with it.

 

[Parsian]

Whats with all these companies showing of their boxes??? the actual product is lacking and they are trying to compensate for its lacks by shiny (and ugly thus far) boxes?

 

[jonnyboyC]

I'll admitt that lean more towards Nvidia, but box art isnt't something, that should come up every time first time was cool, but 3 new artictle about 3 boxs, cardboard isn't changing the world lol

 

[viometrix]

for all you will it run crysis / crysis 2.... crysis 2 will actually look better and require less hardware than the original crysis. so yes itll run crysis 2, my gtx 285 will run it like butter.

 

[steveoh]

Nvidia is just showing you what you'll be living in after you buy their card.

 

[kal20mx]

The box looks kinda small compared to the 5970.

 

[ar09]

i am waiting, either the 5870 or the new 480... it depends on price for me.

 

[Mousemonkey]

Empty boxes? or actually packaged, good to ship to vendors?

Well the boxes that the boxes are in aren't empty, does that count?

 

[n3ard3ath]

The price of a console for what? To play console ports? No thanks. I actually bought an ATI 4890 so I could play probably two of the last good PC only games there will ever be at maximum settings, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. SoC & CoP. 500$ to have 2 or 3 more eye candy features (supposedly DX10 or 11...like the UNIQUE DX11 feature of AvP 3, ladies and gentleman Anti-aliasing! I'm sure I really need DX11, it can't be a marketing ploy) at beast over their console conterparts, with the subpar console gameplay that comes with it, no thanks. AvP 3 anyone? Dragon Age? Even if it received good critics, I hated it, decided to return to BG 2 and NWN 1 & 2. Deus Ex 3 on the way...Oh, too bad, multiplatform as well. I had faith in AvP 3. With the current result, I lost all faith for any multiplatform game to come, even if the originals of the franchise were good in the past. Fallout 3? Sucks as well.

No, I have better places to put my money, say, in my toilets.

Lol. +1

 

[Minus_i7]

This reminds me of some pink sheet penny stocks, and how most of the pumping or bashing revolves around whether or not the product actually exists. C'mon guys, the only time we ever went looking for box art was when Mass Effect came out, and the only reason we cared was because of all the moral panic and outrage about hot naked alien space babes.

A Daikatana, nvidia?
