I bought myself a new videocard

[K.I.L.E.R]

Can this run Doom 3?

Actually, I don't think there is enough texture memory or frame buffer for
Doom III.

Are you trying to ruin my present?

You just know it is going to be something special when they choose Real Player video format to demonstrate the quality of the product.

Common people, atleast give me the option of QuickTime... Windows Media Player at the very least.

So this card is as worthless as a sack of potatoes when it comes to playing 3d games eh? :?

I realise it is when the software isn't optimised for this card, but what happens if D3 becomes optimised with this card in mind? I can see awe isnpiring performance.

Of course you cant even put it into ordinary PC box...

according to the datasheet, 1.3GPixel/s per pipe - half as fast as a radeon 9700pro, though those 1.3GPixel/s are antialiased already (they probably have aa for free?). Since you can have 16 of these pipes, it should be quite fast

It isnt a vid card..

That is part of their new high end product range.
It looks like a 2 or 3 U box for a single "pipe".
The Onyx 3000 Can have up to 16 of these "pipes". 128 cpus. 1TB of system memory. 716GB/s of system i/o.

I guess if you can personally afford it you can call it what ever you'd like.

I wish my desktop had one. I guess I will have to be happy with my 32 way, 875Mhz, 32Gb Superdome...
