I'm glad to hear that Nvidia finally fixed their issues with the NV30 by releasing the NV35. But why all of a sudden act like your reviewer is overjoyed that Nvidia has retaken the GPU lead? Granted, the NV35 GPU excels in the majority of tests, but, your reviewer makes it so that it seems that Nvidia slapped ATI silly by an insanely large margin between both high end cards. A large number of gamers, like myself, are akin to visual quality at high resolutions rather than just speed alone and Nvidia has never really been able to surpass ATI on visual quality. Nvidia's new card is great, but still large & bulky for a video card akin to the Ti 4400 & 4600 cards, and the fact that Nvidia had to almost revamp its design from the NV30 just to exceed the mere small tweaks of the refined Radeon 9800 pro. Even with these implements the new Nvidia card STILL takes up 2 PCI slots! Well, overall I am really not that impressed with all the changes to the new card in order to eke out a 20% overall performace compared to the minor adjustments that ATI had done to the Radeon 9800 Pro over its 9700 sibling. All for the sake of competition, has Nvidia ever considered how all this would affect it's target audience/consumer? Nvidia, so considerate of you to think about us!
 
Well at this point some of us are on hold to see whats going to happen, its kinda like watching Intel and AMD, no wait a minute, its not that bad yet.

mmm, friend, what's your question again?
It is as simple as if you don't like it, don't buy it.

It is morally wrong to allow suckers to keep their money
