NV40 benchmarks

[pauldh]

My (Ping knockoff) Square 2's have kept me happy. My drives still suck though. I hit a 5 iron 200+ yards straight with ease, buy my woods always put me deep in the woods. Argh! pro tees, no I don't want to play the pro tees. "Ironman" don't do them well.


A few nice days and now we turn to the links. Have you northerners even had nice weather yet? Guys NV40 just came out, stay focused.

Callaway had it right with the Big Bertha Warbird Driver, they never should've changed it. I have the 3 and 5 wood with the Memphis 10 shaft and I've been looking all over for the matching driver, I can't find it anywhere!

Pauldh, I've played 4 rounds already in Toronto

Disappointed, I'm just going to wait to see what ATI has to offer. No reason to upgrade yet.

Wow, lucky stiff, that's great!

That would have been me in college. I went to school in Indiana where golf is cheap and weekend tee-times easy to get. Now I'm lucky to play 4 rounds a year.

Yeah it's looking pretty good out of the gate. A few minor issues, but that's to be expected at launch.

With time will likely come more detailed info, and of course competition.

Either way the next generation was worth wating for for those recently thinking of upgrading to a new R9800XT/FX5950U.

Still waiting for more info, but looks good sofar.


EDIT: I wonder if we'd all be so impressed if nV and ATI both released their original launches (R400 and original NV40). Would the introduction of those intermediate cards ahve made us see a nice jump follow by a nice jump, instead of the apparent leaps we see here?

Just a thought.

Either way I guess we would've even up with this point of performance around this time (unless they would've stretched the R400 adn original NV40 out as long as the R3XX/NV3X series).

BTW, it's snowing here! :lol:

When I check the pro shops here I'll keep an eye out for a driver, just for the hell of it.
