| i luv these reviews they make me laugh so much. first nvidia is winning, then ati then nvidia..everyone swallows it all and yet NOBODY knows the system config or tweaking of the system or "if" the system was tweaked in particular to give one card the advantage..and for a few fps, wouldn't you rather have a card that has decent drivers rather than a company passing off new drivers thats main purpose is basically to fix problems. oh then we get those comparison reviews. you know, the guy just freshly installs his video drivers and does benchmarks. i love those reviews too. gee, has nothing to do with the fact you just wiped out all the old drivers and installed some fresh drivers that haven't had the chance to be manipulated by xp or by games.. nah.. that doesn't happen.. |

| It boils down to credibility. If I decided to go out and purchase this card and it ended up being horrible, those sources would lose credibility to me & I wouldn't trust them as much, if at all, in the future.[/code] |

hahaha...you completely missed the point. It's not them to decide, it's me. Do I think they're credible? Have I been burnt in the past by a product they reviewed and gave good scores to?
If I don't think they're credible, I don't read their reviews, I don't visit their site and I don't buy products they push - and they don't get a nickel for it. |
