A little less excited then 8800 GTX launch, but I'm old



This is my dream GPU, and it will do DirectX 10.1 API graphics. Everybody at PS3forums are excited for this GPU, because it enhances graphics... By then there should be a DirectX 10.1 game that I want to play!

I'm waiting for christmas for two (1 my parents pay for, 1 I pay for), but I'll get excited for it regardless. This is because somebody will care that I got it like Randy! Then I can be state-of-the-art while my friends spend their money on cars, girlfriends, and stuff.

I'm playing Hellgate London now on the Hellcat. Runs silky smooth. I'm having trouble between school. It's pretty good except it just seems empty. I've spoiled myself with the best games for console EVER MADE so I put it into prospective.

HD-DVD dead!

No more HD-DVD

It was a fine format, but it looks like Liteon BDRE will be the next drive inside my PC.

Radeon 1 GB GPU out! Nvidia to have lunch

Review

World's first affordable 1024 MB DirectX 10.1 GPU. It beats Geforce 8800 GTX by a little bit. Able to go Crossfire. Too bad there isn't any DirectX 10.1 games out. Geforce 9 series should come out at Tigerdirect next month.


Sounds like Dreamcast to me....come on PS2 and beat the shit out of it. <-- I'm being funny cos nobody gives a damn.

I believe Intel will skip 16-core generation

The Quad Core should last me until 2010, yet I'm going to buy before then just like the two most complex games in my collection [Crysis, UT3] run well in WinXP on my obsolete Athlon 64X2/G80 Hellcat. I got a lot of usage out of that pc and the only thing wrong with it is it couldn't handle the wattage.

The current G80 X2 config in the Core 2 Quad PC should do some fine DirectX 10 and early DirectX 10.1 games at 1280x1024 than I could improve the prototype list. I'm skeptible about a balance of what i have time for and game purchasing. I was thinking this is irrelevant since I'm buying 9800 GX2 at Birthday and Christmas anyways instead of 8-core Intel. They say the 9800 GX2 is $470, because of a combination of why upgrade, low cost 45m fabrication and the recession.

Brand new game specs will say Pentium 4/1 GB RAM/Radeon 9800 Pro/G6800 for another 18 months yet and that was two PC generations ago and I know that FEAR couldn't run decent on those specs at 1280x1024.

I would be as aggressive if I choose to pick 9800 GX2 as reimbursement as Birthday present.

80 cores by 2017 is pretty much says it all. It's capitalism really. I have a feeling that Intel will skip a generation (8 > 32 cores over a year/32 > 128 cores over a year) to playderise CBE and ABOVE ALL ELSE OBLIGATE PPL TO BUY THEIR PRODUCT TO PAY OFF R&D. 16-core generation will be emulated (not real though) by dual socket mobos of the near future.
