More Volari Failings.

Driver Heaven looks to see if the newly release drivers can save the card everyone wanted to love, but now love to hate.

The answer.... Nope!

What's "more" faliure? It already falied as much as it could.

I can't remember a worse card than Volari. (of course, for it's time. Volari is certainly better than Riva 128)

man....i'm scared... the duo might replace 5800Ultra for the award "most useless piece of expensive silicon"
and this thing doesn't even look cool!

man a fun benchmark to see would be
V8 Duo VS 5800Ultra :D

One can always fail further, it simply involves trying again and not succeeding. Yes the attempt is laudable, the results are not.

Drivers may save this card yet, but so far it's just another failed attempt.

Yeah, <b>CoolS</b>, I think it's already a done deal, at leas the F5800U could play the games, even though maybe not as well as the competition.

The images from that xBit Labs review a while back were just sad. I think it's a done deal, the V8 <b>IS</b> worse than the FX5800U. BTW, the FX5800U would kick the Volari's A$$! Gotta be able to run a game before you can compare it. :wink:
