paper launch means no hardware. This is just very limited supply. The only atrocious thing is the FE edition is 100$ less then the cheap AIB models.

- apetresc 6y agoYou're not operating on the same definition of paper launch as everyone else. It's generally used also for limited-quantity releases. Lots of chips can be produced in small batches that can't be mass-produced yet.
- Pet_Ant 6y ago> paper launch means no hardware If it's effectively a paper launch because they aren't available in commercial quantities. Much like Intel's overly binned high end chips.
- pixl97 6y ago>The only atrocious thing is the FE edition is 100$ less Some people are calling this rather scummy behavior on nvidias part. "Nvidia has the cheapest card that this performance level ever!" is what the headlines will say. But if only a few hundred/thousand of these cards show up at this price over the next 6 months or so, and the AIB models go for $100+ more is really more of a way of manipulating headlines with no desire to follow up on the savings.
