I still don't like NVIDIA....I will waith for ATIs card....they never cheat...;)
But I probably can't afford a new card the next 100 years anyway...
NVIDIA still can't match, nor beat ATI's image quality.
What's the point of ultra-performance when it looks like ****?
I'm on ATI's side also. I've got a Radeon 9700 pro, and it's a great card. I've known a couple guys that had Nvidias, and I wasn't impressed with them.
I'll wait for the ATI response to this.
I have a 9800PRO, and it is going to be much slower then the next generation, but as long as it is handling DX9b and some c and VS2 and PS2 then I am fine..:D
Dont care. As long as my current NVidia Quadro continues to play everything a playable speeds, why do I need to spend another 500$ to get a higher benchmark score?
To get better AA and ASAA...:D
And to make the new shaders work..;)...to get all the FXes in the game..:D...and to be able to make them...I have seen your skills with games. You are soon there...trust me...;)
Dont care much for all that. Dont need it. All i care about is my openGL overlays on my card for Maya.
And for gaming, as long as my rocket still makes you explode, Im happy.
I understand....if that is your use of a GPU then I understand why you are not using more money on it...;)
YEA RIGHT! The guy getting 3912 FPS ON THE NEW NVIDIA POS666 WILL OWN J00000!! :lol:Quote:

But really... I have a point. If I can get 60 FPS at a reasonable resolution... what's the problem? ;)
Well to be honest, my Video card was more expensive than the standard consumer card becuase of the opengl overlays. It was $700. :eek:Quote:

That is the main problem I have right now is these cards dont have those overlays, and the ones that do are in the thousands range right now
I vaugely recall the GeForce --> Quadro modding days...Quote:

In any case I'll wait for ATI's response.....and then pick up a 9800 XT for cheap. :)
Why not just get a 9800PRO, you can clock it almost as fast as a 9800XT, and the 9800XT is more or less allready maxed out...Quote:

When Doom3 and the Unreal3Engine is out, then you won't get that...thats for sure....just read an intervju with Sweeany (SP?), telling that everything is rendered perpixel...:D...sounds like he want everyone to buy new computers soon...:DQuote:

It's something usually only software emulated, but application like Maya use the hardware version for real time hardware rendering in view ports. Handy for when working with things like particles.
I use MAX... I also use software rendering.Quote:

Hmmm sounds weird...:D...not that I do any 3D modelling anyway...Quote:

ATI response will be the R420PRO, which will compete with the non-ultra version of Nvidia's GeForce 6800 card. That will be followed up by the R420XT, with 16 pipelines :D, and will compete with the GeForce 6800 Ultra. They should be out in less than one month.
I currently have a Radeon 9000 Pro 128 MB video card, so I'll probably still be waiting to upgrade for a while.
