Deano Calver's Article online

[hovz]

id like to hear deanos personal opinion on the x800 series v the nv40 series. curious what a devloper thinks about them without worrying about controversy.

I like my GF6800, SM3.0 (I've written my first shader with dynamic pixel branching the other day...) and FP16 blending make me a happy developer...

But I'm a console bunny at the moment so I don't have to consider the whole PC market issues ;-)

come on, speak freely.

Have Nvidia ever admitted they lost the round? I don't think so .. sorry DeanoC. That's just how I see it of course.

They have. Jen Hsun basically said the NV3x generation wasn't a great success for them and ATI won ground in a semi-recent investor conference. I'm sure other NVIDIA guys must have echoed that in other timeframes.

Well I guess that does make you like SM3.0. cards though, eh?
