I know i´m a playman compared too many of you, i just should want to reflect what´s happend the last six months or so(my thoughts only of course)..
The thing that´s happend now when the FX-reviews has popped upp is that i must say i´m a bit bored, sure i read one or two(of course the Q&A here at Beyond3D
) but i feel that very many here just knowed and had that crunch in the belly that ok, we know it be a little faster here and a little slower there. Ok to be fair the Geforce FX seems to have been suffering from very bad drivers for the reviews card and i´m sure they vill
release something better when the card actually arrives.
One another BIG thing is the price/certinaly here in sweden and the rest of
EU/Europe, ex when the 9700pro "started" to arrive it was VERY expensive
an VERY rare, now you can chose from many different BRANDS and also
get the 9700, 9500pro and so on and last but not least the prices have dropped alot, and i can only assume when the FX 5800 Ultra arrives in a month or so that prices for the ATI Branded cards have dropped even a little bit more.
Well and now there have been so much statements about the R350 that i actually can see it on stores on a couple of months.
One thing that i been a little nervous about is the Cg and as i understand it
vill do that some games or demos that i may want too check out NOT vill work properly on lets say i decides to buy a ATI card.
Finally i vill buy a new card somewhere now in the spring so the R350 would be a clear contender, there have you been this talk about the NV35 and those reviews i look forward to as all of us freeks..
I finally can say that the 3d-card i vill buy vill be built on the criterias of
hopefully decent price, if they throw in a good game maybe and the AA/Anisotropic quality and performance, almost forgot GOOD driver´s.
Should not forget to say that you have learned a "little" more who´s of you that has REAL-INFO and the ones that mostly as i se it want to "impress" or "shine" with some that they think is COOL insider-info..
I´m not pointing out some but i think the most of you know who this users is.
Well that was some of my reflections of the latest time.
I hope it made some sense..
