Good luck with the suit...ROFL. Anandtech can't even find a corner case yet, and I'm sure NV has tried themselves (with FAR more resources). First words out of there mouth will be "did it affect performance sir?". ...... "ummm, errr, uhhh, no". Case dismissed clown. You have to show some kind of harm I'd think, and that seems pretty tough to do. Also not sure what boxes are showing, and if NV ever said this publicly on their site or vendors just ran with info that wasn't (exactly) correct. I don't see anything nefarious if perf is unaffected and benchmarks are the same either way.
NV haters make me laugh. We don't need silly lawsuits eating the last gpu company we have. AMD is already becoming a moot company. I might say different if the card actually sucked in some way, but it is a great product and performs exactly as reviews showed. Mountain out of a molehill here. Love the products people, not the company (or hate the products...). IF stupid suits like this win, we all just pay higher prices or get less R&D. With AMD about to be the same vs. NV as Intel vs. AMD in cpu, we really need both sides MAKING WADS of cash (which neither side does anyway) for R&D. For AMD that means fire all management, they're always making bad decisions and have been for years (console instead of core products! DUH). For NV lets just hope they finally get back to 2007 profit levels this year. People need to read some balance sheets and quarterly reports before they start thinking they're ripping us off. That is total BS or they'd be making more money than 2007 (nearly a decade of lower profits, and AMD just lost 6B+ over last 10-12 years). Quit whining. Also note NV would be even worse off without the Intel 66mil/quarter, so they aren't making more than 1/2 of 2007 in profit if intel suit ends payments in 2016.
Would you all like gpu upgrades every 4 years because they need to sell the same cards for that long to make any money? LOL. It's coming if one of the two doesn't start cracking a Billion a year in PROFIT (not revenue). R&D isn't free, and at 1/2 the profit of 2007 (800mil rougly, taking out Intel payments quarterly they're 400mil now for years), that R&D gets might tough even for NV and at no profit yearly, AMD is just basically falling apart now while being attacked on all fronts with falling R&D for the last 3-4yrs. Check the balance sheets etc people.
