for those who doubt the Project gotham shot. this is real.
it's simply a texture based on real street. dont forget that project gotham team has been collecting data on cities for years, now I am sure they can use highter rez textures.
I live in NYC, I def can tell you this is based on...
" It's easy to despise what you cannot have. " from your link, I work and can very well afford a $600, but again. What value will this bring me ?? I already have a 6800nu.
my point to those thinking that the new consoles will be some lame low rez machines, need to reconsider. I too once was a...
As previously stated, I did realize the title was harsh and apologized to those offended by it.
Now, myself at one point, I was into all this spending crazy loot on pc hardware, only to realize that current games, just dont push my hardware. I look at the upcoming games on consoles, only to...
Well, at the end of the day, your mighty Nvidia GXX, Ati R5XX whatever hardware you pick, it comes down to games.
Now here's a little stat for you. With the console market looking to expand to $8 billion in the next four years, and the PC market looking to decline to a measly $1 billion...
A Quadro 3400 is for digital content creation. If you apply yourself, you can learn some serious 3d apps, make some money. that's an investment. An overpriced vid game card is just that.....gaming. which can be done on a next gen console...for 1/2 the price.
It's a matter of preference that's...
USMC2Hard4U I respect you for kicking ass in Iraq, Hell If I could, I would buy you a 7800 just for fighting for us.
I think most of you are missing my point, the price is just a hell of premium to pay thats all.
Most I would pay for a vid card is $350 and that's pushing it, half life 2...
I am pretty sure most on this forum already have pcs, yes pcs are great, my gripe is with the price of these new vid cards. Yes they bring new features, feature that wont be used for a while, by the time we get the high polys, HDR lighting, better cards will be out.
If Nvidia wanted my $600...
and what if he does ?? ban me who cares, I have the right to my opinion. and I am simply making a point, last I checked I live in a free country. how crazy it is. with the prices. yes the performance is ok...its just not mindblowing to update. I could understand if this new g70 too my pc to...
My post is not meant to offend anyone, if some are offended I do apologize in advance.
I am a gamer, hardware loving whore like most of you. there just comes a point where I must go $600....duuyamm..thats alot to ask of me. sorry , I pass, it's not like the performance jump is that great...
for the Approx 6500 USD price tag,
unless you are making some serious cash with that system ie digital content creating, it's not needed. that system is better suited for video editing, 3d rendering. overkill for gaming ..sorry.
for that type of money I say get a decent plasma HD, a next...
my point is I don't see games on pc that makes me require this hardware.
I know some will mention UT2k7 and whatever else is coming, I just find this update every 6 months crazy.
Nvidia put up this price, cuz they know, some are crazy enough to buy it. Yes I do see the new features, but...
Am i the only one who finds this $600 for a vidcard ridiculous ??? serioulsy.
what gaming on pc requires this ??? I have a 6800NU it runs half life 2 fine.
Now before some jump and say unreal 2007, by the time this comes out , there will be better vid cards out.. I just can't stomach the...
thats messed up.
A while back we got HD with a 50" plasma. which had hdmi input. In new york we just called and they udpdated to HD. changed the box which had only DVI. which is fine.
All you can do is to take the box down to the office, return it. simple as that. demand one with DVI. prog...
I am glad to see I am not the only one who is fed up with the total lack of respect shown by both Nvidia, Sony, and MS regarding console specs.
It seems that this is the trend now. Inflate your specs, show bullshit rendered video and expect Jo six pack consumer who have zero clue about...
As far as the unreal engine, we all know it will rock. I mean depends on PC it was run from. We all know you will need badass hardware to run it. It will also be tweaked by the time it hits the pc market, hopefully the hardware can keep up. But if you want full glory of it, I am sure it will...
Like I mentioned before, this is about mindshare. This is what Sony does best. It has an image to protect. They are " cool, powerful, ground breaking"
Note how there were No xbox 360 Tech demos. While on the sony camp, there were a ton.
All sony needs to do is sell you on a promise...
Wait and see attitude is what I will do. Besides, I need to save up to get a nice HD monitor. All this HD talk, HDMI is serioulsy making my tv look lame.
I will prob wait till i can get a screen for around $2000-3000 that has great specs.
Killzone.
The question on the mind of most is: Is this realtime or is this pre-rendered CG ? :eek:
video here

Heres my take on this.
I carefully watched the a high rez version of the demo in question
Why would...
I dream when I can hold this.
To be frank, I dont give 2 shit what it looks like, when the box is cranking out games that looks this HOT. it could look like a toilet bowl, a boomrang/dildo like how the controller does, in the end... I want one.
I called this one over a year ago, most at...
its a z line series desk.
Just 2 legs.. clean glass. simple.. neat, got at staples last year. dunno if they still have that model. being replaced with a champagne one. yuk !~
I read everyone's comments. I do admit, the ps3 or sony for that matter does have a bit of hype about it. Regardless, it's great tech coming up.
It's different than the current pc platforms we all know. at the very core of it. everything is shared. unlike pcs built off this tired ass old x86...
regardless of speculations, I see a revolution in the way that things are done. I dunno about you guys, I am sick and tired of intel on top. I love amd if I have intel based machines. I respect the tech that amd, ati and nvidia have been dishing out.
I remember way back when they said that...
seriously, I have read up on intel's dual core plans and you know what...I am not impressed. keyword...HEAT. no thanks. prescott kicked their asses...now they will paste 2 of them together just to answer to amd dual core, while they both fight for cache. What a shit design.
If anything, amd's...
I have been reading this. I for once am looking forward to this,

" Now take our advice. You are barking up the wrong tree little doggy. "

seriously, Futuremark.....chill. 1 ) this tool is a so useless. I have said this way back.
only good as test to see if system is stable. if i O/C stuff.
I used the latest one...on my system...
wow.... pretty eye candy esp the new space battle scene. the rest is....blah.
As far as the type of performance. let's see. I tested this on my girls shuttle cube
xp2500 with a 9800pro, 1gig ddr400. pretty decent box only to score 2351 :rolleyes:
wtf !!
worst is the fact that @...
sorry mate....dual all the way.
unless someway some how i could get a single 30" apple LCD that is the only way i would give up my 2001s setup.
I can play games on one ,play xbox..watch movie...chat .browse. it def increases my productivity
photoshop loves me ! lol
:D
it seems that only workstation cards will support dual link DVI... dont confuse it with dual dvi ports on the card.
http://www.3dchips.net/content/printer.php?id=3947
ATI FireGL X3-256 and the new pciE version 7100 both support dual link dvi
for a max digital rez of 3840 x 2400...
i myself i have dual 2001 and running off 9800 pro. i dont have a dual dvi capable card... I do want want bad ! cuz comparing the dvi and vga out is night and day.
one time i was playing around with the monitors....look at the dvi inputs carefully.. it caught my attention that both the dvi...
i found these
MSI NX6800GT-T2D256 in all specs...shows up as dual dvi
http://www.geizhals.at/a104458.html
http://www.1ashop.at/servlet/webshopServlet?cmd=showDetail&id=IMH210086
but look like ultra to me.. I hope it does have dual dvi
I dunno if this will be avail in the US...
why are so many 9800 pro owners jumping on 6800GT?
personally, I want a GT or a decent fast card that gives me Dual DVI. not to mention the perf i see the new nvidia cranking out. sick !
I have noticed that Nvidia handles OpenGL and dual display set up better than ATI...since I own a...
I guess the only the pci xprs GTs will have dual dvi. :(
http://www.simhq.com/_technology/technology_026a.html
now i have to wait for an Amd based pci xpress board. no way i am buying a shitty prescott based board .Not an AMD fanboy...just pissed at Intels shitty designs and cpus as of late.
