new Info about RV250 & R300

Pete, the "TT&L chip" hasn't been proven BS, but hasn't been proven anything else either. AFAIK, nobody has linked the proposition to any communication from Nvidia or card vendors.

It doesn't make sense anyway. 3dfx's separate TCL chip (The SAGE) was to be coupled with "simple" rasteriser chips (Rampage and later Fusion), but Nvidia hasn't had those (just rasterisers without TCL) since TNT2U...

Now, a separate TCL chip for Kyro, that would be dandy 8) Say a hypothetical "ELAN 2" TCL/AGP-bridge chip coupled to one or two Kyros on a single card. (At least until the STMicro issue gets resolved and their next gen has a chance of getting (fully developed and) manufactured.)

Nappe1 may be very enthusiastic and optimistic about rumors/tidbits of info, but he's sharing it nonetheless. At least he's not subscribing to the, "I know something that you don't know - I can't tell you know what I know, but I just wanna let you know that I know something you don't" attitude.

With that kind of attitude, I don't care what the person knows about the latest graphics cards - just shut up.

Sometimes I feel myself as tightrope man (excelent thriller novell by Desmond Bagley, btw. ) but so far I have been able stay on that rope. (I don't even want to know what's below it...)
