After the appearance of the Extreme GeForce 6800, many of our readers are pending of the ATI. movements the certain thing is that the bets on if the X800 surpasses to the last chip of NVIDIA are at your service of the day not only in our forums, but by all Internet.

Then, today we have received an invitation of the Canadian company where one inquires to us into which day 29 of April, in Milan, a new technology will appear "", that will be" the greater technological event of the year ". There they will meet expert of ATI like engineers, the Chips department graphical and great part of the equipment settled down in Toronto of the NVIDIA rival.

Nor that to say it has day 29 we will be as or we did it in the presentation of GeForce 6800, for contaros everything to the few hours there to be celebrated this "mysterious" event. For the occasion, ATI has presented/displayed Ruby, an attractive girl formed by 80,000 polygons, and that we suppose he will be first demo technological running in the X800.

According to the last rumors, the X800 will be available from the 5 of May. The version Pro would count with 180 million transistors and 475 Core would work to MHz, whereas the memory would be of 900 type effective GDDR3 and runs to MHz. This chip would count on 12 pipelines, whereas X800 XT, anticipated for end of May, would take 16.
 
She looks comparable to dawn, Not quite as good though. (then again dawn runs on like an fx 5200, ati should be doing better)
 
Well ATI might have wanted to go for something we would actually somewhat kinda maybe like. I mean sure, Nvidia's characters are made to attract male attention, but ATI decided to not do that and go for a super heroine type (because the people who use these cards play games). I also believe this gives ATI a good chance to out-do Nvidia in demos. Having Ruby blasting her way through a level of mutants shows off the cards abilities more than a mermaid swimming through simple blue water. Plus she isn't that bad looking ;)
 
Sex sells. Even in video cards. I have a dawn/dusk poster that almost looks like a shot from a swimsuit calender. Its great. Ati's? well..They have some gargoyle thing that scares little kids.

Ati = pwnt.

Edit: Im hoping to get the new stuff for the new cards :D.

That was a cool one. I was thinking of it while reading the thread.

One second look she does have the face of a man-beast. Might be the aa/af or the jpeg compression. But she doesnt look right.

Her head is to....well it looks weird.
 
She does look like a man-hater.

Nalu - now there's a face to love!

OMG!I just realised we're Video Card fanboys over the damn female mascot!:eek:
 
well to me that shot doesnt even look like it is part of a demo....its seems like it was rendered separately or simply just a teaser to the real demo.....like a little pot-shot ATI rendered just to wet our pants....
 
She looks like a Nazi she-bitch in leather. Definitely a carpet muncher, Canadian variety.
 
Based on Ruby pictures I think that ATI wants to market new video cards to people with alternative lifestyles.
They need a catchy slogan to go with it too : something like

"ATI : the way the games are meant to be played by sexual minorities"

Yea that looks more like a radeon 9700 demo than an x800 one. Oh well.
 
god damn thats horrid. at least they shouldve licensed blood rayne what a joke.;)
 
Yeah but keep in mind that Nalu is just in a sea of blue while Ruby has a full scene going on around her, or so it's rumored.
 
Thats god awful what happened to the earlier version? That one was kind of cute.
I could be wrong but is it something of a technical accomplisment that Nalu's hair is being render like that at all?
Nalu, Dawn, and Dusk are much better. ATI needs better artist or maybe Canada needs cuter women. ;) (just kidding, LOL)
Oh I found the Link
 
If she looks bad to you I would hate to see you crying into your pillow while faced with the reality of pounding your hand.

Butch lesbians.. yes.

Come on ATI, if you are gonna render lesbians, at least give us the lipstick kind.

I'd rather be crying into my pillow than stuck under Ruby ;) She looks like she could rip the cap off a firehydrant with her bare hands.

Nicely rendered, but somewhat frightening :eek:

:rolleyes:i have other means for that ever heard of the opposite sex?
 
As far as quality, Dawn and Nalu both look more realistic (defined as lifelike) than Ruby seems to IMHO. Maybe its the completely blank expression and lack of realistic facial structure that Ruby has compared to that of Dawn and Nalu. I have the Dawn demo (first time I've seen Nalu was today) and I played with all of the different expressions and other features. The rendering is awesome. Maybe Ruby can show expression better, but the stills I have seen don't look very convincing to me.

Edit: I've not seen Dusk. Where can I find a pic or demo or something?
 
She's got nothing on Trinity...doesn't even hold a candle....

Looks like she needs a couple stiff drinks to loosen up a bit.
