So in your opinions, what was the bigger flop, the NV3x architecture or the new prescott core. Granted, both have their benefits over the previous architectures, but neither lived up to the marketing and both were delayed.
In my opinion, the nv3x architecture dissapoints more than the prescott. At least the prescott offers equal performance to the existing p4 and is competitive with amd; however, the nv3x offers superior dx8 speed while sacrificing dx9 speed to ATI. I also feel like the nv3x was over marketed whereas Intel just likes giving numbers that do not show real life performance figures.
So what do you think? Maybe the volari deserves to be in the list
