i could only touch on this briefly. This is really one of the most interesting Keynotes in awhile. Definitely watch the video if you are interested.

Well, i am trying to do some unique bits that you won't find on the usual HW sites
-- come to think of it, not too many of the regular HW review sites are represented here. GPU programming is outside the "usual" scope of their reviews.

i love it. i learned quite a bit about BigK. It is the architecture that supports both gaming and programming that interests me.

And wasn't there a breakfast cereal called Kellogg's Special K ?

As much as I love birds and fish I really want to know more about Big Kepler and the GTX 660. :D

Well, the point of the article is that NATURE - including humans, animals, insects, and even cancer cells - behave in established patterns. And this can even be seen in forum posters.

There is no information that can be given out about the GTX 660 here. i will say that the feeling that i get is that it is close to release and that it will not disappoint compared to its competitor. And BigK has the whitepaper out and we shall see a GK110 "780" in 6-9 months for gamers.
-- what more do you want to know? There is no pricing (although it is easy to project "expensive") and no gaming performance projections (other than it will be "fast"). And we cannot know what AMD will have in response in that time-frame.
:scratch:

I don't think AMD is going to have a response. They have played all of their cards this round. Their only reactions at this point are going to be higher clock speeds or lower prices.

It sounds like the GTX 660 will be $300+ and will have the performance to back that up. Thanks for the info.
