SITE POLL: Geforce FX, would you buy one?

~~Asuka~~ · Mar 24, 2003, 07:29 PM

Let's face it - nVidia's GeFarce FX is a festering piece of sh!t. It's noisy like having a starting Boeing 747 in your case, has poor image quality, poor performance that often can't even beat Ati's Radeon 9700 Pro, and is also vastly overpriced for all that

All that nVidia has done about it this far is some foul cheating with specifically modified drivers, sacrificing even some more image quality, since they apparently saw this as only way to get on the same level with Ati. This only shows that they royally messed up this time... but they'll realize soon enough that they can't sell whatever crap they want - people aren't *that* stupid. Instead of producing some even more pitiful downsized FX-variants, they should've rather concentrated on a FX successor.

The NV35 looks like it COULD be something to be worth waiting for. 256mb 256bit DDRII at 1000mhz plus a 500mhz core. (maybe)
