They are coming... mid-April from what I read. Is anyone out there ready for the next gens? I sure want to see the new benchmarks.
Will I get one? That is probably a no.... my 9800pro will last me until my next complete computer upgrade. I will wait for PCIexpress to fully take over, the new BTX motherboards to become mainstream, DDR2 to be affordable, and the next gens of 64 procs.
I am pretty excited to see what is around the bend.....but agree with you.....probably will wait for pci express......that and I need to buy a new fence for the house this summer......will be the only thing keeping me from wasting money
I wanna know what ATI will be calling their cards...it will be different for sure. Got me a 9700 Pro, so I dont see an upgrade in my future for at least two years. This baby will run the newest games (far cry) at highest settings, around 30-60 fps.
Alright well can u tell me what it means in a nutshell? I am trying to watch Crossing Jordan, do homework and post at the same time and I just read that and didn't take any of it in. Well I got that it will be better :P
it is a derivative of pci and will run with a much greater bandwidth than an agp 8x slot. correct me if im wrong, but i think u can have more than one pci express slot in a motherboard.... which if im right and if i remember what i read correctly, this lends to the possibility of using DUAL videocards like the voodoos of the olden golden days!
of course, i dont ever see myself spending $1000 on a dual videocard set.... so i dont see why im so happy.
