I said it before and I'll say it again The gap between the high end and mainstream has never been greater. This basically means that money being pumped into DX8 and DX9 features are leading edge dollars. Much, much more money will have to be pumped into this industry before the mainstream can...

My short opinion Sorry, I don't have time to read the entire 9 pages of posts, so I apologize if this sentiment is old: If NVidia dominated ATI on the 3DMark 2003 benchmarks, they'd be praising it as a great benchmark. But they don't, so they won't.

Good points, overall, except that I'm not apologizing for them. Normally, I'd agree with you except that NVidia has spent something in the order of half a billion on developing NV30. If they were leading the performance pack by a considerable margin then they would be able to count on healthy...

The stinker of being perceived as the market loser (as opposed to leader). It's a position they'd rather not be in. Before, they had money and the performance crown. Now they've lost the latter (if the rumors of the 5800's demise are, in fact, true). As far as how they are financially, that's...

It's going to be really interesting to see how NVidia management gets out of this stinker. On one hand, they made many of the same mistakes that 3dfx's bumbling management made during the Voodoo5 fiasco. On the other hand, Huang is a realistic and smart guy and is likely to take dramatic actions...

Hah I still say it's not too late for NVidia to release a 16-way VSA-100 solution. True, it would need 4 slots and engine coolant from Pep Boys, but it would kick ass! :evil: :evil: :evil: :twisted:

Well, I can't define loudness but I know it when I hear it. :?

face it... no matter how you fiddle with the settings, 8xS is never going to look as good as R300's 6x. :wink:

cool i like nv30

Umm, names... How about just 3dfx. I mean, NVidia owns that trademark now. And why not be reverent to a 3D industry pioneer? Hmm, I am not funny today, but who cares... How about: NVideon 9700 .13Force Doom 3 Accelerator 1.0 L3D Zeppelin Also, know how ATI likes to put mean...

Just ask yourself What would JC do? Find a workaround. Just do it.
