But why is it running the car chase demo at 3fps? Otherwise, looks very interesting.

Sig of the week.

Exciting times for the GPU/VPU industry......Maybe the nVidia vs. Matrox vs. ATI competition will make this forum like the CPU forum. A perpetual stick poking fight. Flooded right now with AMD sore losers and Intel fanboys. Cant wait to see the benches.

I sold my sig for $50.

What the hell is this language and website? I can't find any info on it cuz I can't understand it!

I set my graphics aperture to 1024MB, why can't I open anything now?

Yes well that site links to...well I dunno where, and the link the guy showed brings me to a lot of links and one the middle... exactly how are we supposed to know where is the article?

Intel had 2.2GHZ Willies left...I bought one, it powered my entire neighborhood!

 

[flamethrower205]

Oh, that sucks, they took it down. Hehe, before they posted it because Matrox wasn't too interested in the Russian Matrox, but I guess some people are being fired right now for posting that.

Sig of the week.

Well could you tell me a result or two in 3D Mark that could end me up in a hospital bed for rehab?

The problem is they masked the fps so it wouldn't give a reading. This was mainly on image quality, and it was very impressive.

Well ATi is shooting there mouth saying the R300 will crush the NV30 and the Parhelia 256. I wanta see what there up too, to say that.

Also the RV250 a Notebook chip. Vertex shaders and Pixel shaders for notebook, Pwnage

You GeForce Ti4xxx is faster then my R8500 but my R8500 is the king of Aniso baby

this will be good for the industry..

My two AGP cards are the old, old (1998)

Matrox G200 8Mb

and my more recent

Creative Nvidia Geforce 2 Ultra 64Mb


I've seen no need to upgrade to the GF3 or GF4 ranges, but I have a old soft spot for Matrox as my first AGP card was theirs.

Yes I'll be interested in seeing the NV30 (will be called GF5 will it?) and the new ATI one benchmarked against this Matrox.

Now here's the thing- I will never buy a laptop, so it's of no importance to me :tongue: . Let's see though- I also want to see some pro card sex....err competition

No NV30 will not be called GF5. I've heard some rumours of "Omen", but that sounds a little ominous....

My firewall tastes like burning.

mmmm we can only guess what those ever so clever people in marketing will think up for NV30, judging from the recent lack of new names (even hammer is getting called Athlon) i think they're going to stick with the gf naming scheme, but i'll be glad to be wrong.
