XGI V8 Duo

[PrkChpXprss]

Whatever happened to this card? From what I read, it's worse than anything on the market today -- even integrated graphics. eesh!

I wonder if it will hit 1-3 FPS on Doom3

lol what were they thinking when they made that card. 2 chips not better then 1!

It was supposed to compete with 9800xt, but performed like crap. Maybe they will get their act together and put together a card to compete with ATi and Nvidia.

From what I have heard they have a LOT of work to do on their drivers. I do hope they come back with something awesome. I'm thinking of grabbing a V8 Duo for my little collection of cards.

They have the bandwidth and gpu performance to be contenders with ati/nvidia but a piss poor driver team. I seem to remember reading they have dropped out of the card race.

Hmm if i recall correctly they crashed during qualifying, so they didn't make the race. Something about not having a chance, coupled with an idea that 3dfx couldn't even make successful, just didn't work out for them. (let the flaming of my joke begin.... NOW!)

lol at the HardOCP workshop today, someone asked "Is XGI dead?" Then they pulled out 5 or 6 of the cards that were to be given away later.
