The official launch drivers for the GTX 670 are 301.34, which are also the official launch drivers for the GTX 690. These drivers do not support any other cards but are otherwise virtually identical to the 301.33 press drivers used for the GTX 690 launch. For all other NVIDIA cards we’re using 301.24.

    Glad you claim to, the last 4 flagships historical pricing was $499. Time to face the facts you've been avoiding chizow, in order to bolster your conspiracy theory.

    If AMD responds with another 7970 like price-drop on the 7950 and can get it down to the low $300 range, I may wind up owning my first AMD card ever. Although, I'm not holding my breath for such a dramatic decrease.

    I have twice in my life, so far, gotten a AMD card over a Nvidia and regretted it so much I only buy Nvidia now.

    I've bought AMD once, but was very happy with it.
    Specifically, a 9500 256bit that unlocked into a 9700.

    Kept it for quite a while, skipping Geforce 6 and 7 series, as well has ATI X1 and X2 series. I was very glad I did so, because my next upgrade was the 8800GT which was IMO the best bang-for-the-buck GPU ever made.

    I buy alot of video cards.. not only for systems I build for others but also for myself.. and on average since the Radeon 8500 I see no reason not to buy from either company.

    Agreed; 8500 was a bitch.
  • Spunjji - Thursday, May 10, 2012 - link

    Classic! That little 9500 Pro was a beast. Looks like you hit the perfect generation tipping points too, as the 8800GT was a hell of a card.

    Than they released the 9600pro, I hated that card to no end (even tho I never bought one).

    But when I went to build other people computers, and couldn't choose the 9500. It made me sad.

    The 8800GT was a great card, but the 4850 was the best bang for buck card I've seen so far.
  • Spunjji - Thursday, May 10, 2012 - link

    What on Earth did you buy that sucked so hard? I'm genuinely interested - I've been buying cards from both sides since the GeForce DDR and the only bad product I ever got was a failtastic G86-based mobile part. That black mark aside both vendors have served me well.
