planning to protest against Nvidia and ATI near their building

As Mussels stated, let it not be said that TPU would quell the voices crying in the wilderness, calling out for the end of oppressive regimes and the relentless overlords who would install fear in the hearts of those whom upon their backs bear the burdens imposed upon them.

Now behave in this thread or we'll ban you.

Wow cant believe no one has actually just thought this is a WUM (wind up merchant) who intentionally created this thread to get a reaction laugh:

Obviously troll is obvious - stop feeding him and let him make a fool oh himself.

 

[CDdude55]

I am hoping that they reduced their top end cards to at least $120 USD. like 5970 and 480.

thats my goal.

That sentence made me lol hard. You can't be serious.

 

[aCid888*]

Pretty obvious u2k.. troll.....but it is a funny question asked by w1z either way.

 

[Lionheart]

AAAhahahahahaah this thread is still going

 

[m1dg3t]

i dont want 5770. i want at least 5850. which is overpriced right now.

I remember paying $770 for an x850 year's ago!

Thank god for the lowered price's of late

I say we create signs for them to carry!


Poo Gamers need High end

Ok I don't get it . 5 pages on this ? I payed 189 bucks for my HD5770 and I am fine with that . hell I am fine at any price they want to set there crap at . As well I can buy it or not . the choice is yours . If you want a top of the line product you will pay what they want for it not what you THINK it is worth . Man I can't even believe that I wasted my time posting this .

 

[epicfail]

i payed atleast 600 i think on my 4870x2 if thats makes you feel anybetter when it first came out

 

[3volvedcombat]

1 more post!


I think you dont even have 120 dollars to spend on a video card to begin with even if you got it that low.


Watch prices lower anyways, dx11 is coming out, just give it a year .

 

[hat]

lol I paid $70 for my 8800gts and like $40 or $50 for the 9600GSO 192-bit I had before that... I'm fine with going prices atm

That, or lobby for a United Nations Charity Of Tech Hardware (UNCOTH). Someone may throw away the odd GTX 480 or HD 5970, which will reach someone in need, along with food and medicine.

 

[DrPepper]

Either he didn't get the reaction he wanted and is ignoring us or he was trolling and got the reaction he wanted and is lol'ing us now.

 

[ste2425]

I cannot believe i never saw this sooner...

 

[trickson]

I think this person would bitch if they were handed the cards on silver platters . This is just a bitch thread about product pricing .
Hey kid save your money up ( Like DADDY once said ) stop complaining and get on with life .
If you do not like the pricing of computer parts maybe this is the wrong hobby for you take up fishing or maybe reading books is more affordable for you or just walk as well walking is free even if you can't buy the shoes .

 

[95Viper]

IMO, I want to post, too, so here it is.

@op> enjoy your 15 mins of fame.

@aCid888*> propably picked up on ip address as coming out of NZ, if that is what you meant.

According to a survey that i saw, actually high end users are the ones who are denting the gaming industry. because they are just mindlessly and blindly buy a hardware. thats just wrong and hurt us all.

its not piracy killing the pc gaming, its the actions of HIGH END users. period.


I am all for low end and mainstream hardware. actually to be honest i am an activist in this area.

it would be good if there was never a High end hardware. because they are just hurting the industry.

So let me get this right.

You think that prices have been higher in new Graphics cards in the last few generations?

Wouldnt that be because graphics cards are more powerful than previous generations?

Then you say that you want the highest of the high flagship cards at the $120 price point?

Are you also aware that it coasts both AMD and Nvidia more to produce a card than that? and i dont mean marketing etc etc which i Will get too. They pay people to make these cards and even on their end its more than $120

Lets move on to marketing plant space materials etc etc. First. That coasts money. LOTS of it. millions upon millions a year. you cant make the money to do that at $120 a card. Not to mention the engineers and other staff. They need to get paid. If im doing my math correct these people will need to be paid less if a card is priced at $120 I mean sure lets go protest, the worst that could happen is alot of peoples lives are ruined because their out of work and the others are struggling because they make as much as a burger king employee and support a family.


good call dude. Go for it.
