Peeps at Rage3D are freaked out that NV35 will destroy R350, nVidia will release NV40 by Xmas, and ATi won't have an answer in R400 until early 2004...
Edit: Where are the female interns??? Isn't this suppose to be like DELL???
First off, I am by NO means an ATI fanboy, but I HIGHLY doubt that ATI and its fans are afraid of what NV35 and NV40 will do considering ATI's recent success. Remember that nVidia has to play catch up for the time being. Just getting NV35 to be faster than the 9800 Pro will be a feat. Getting the NV40 to truly blow away the competition will be one hell of a task.
Remember, people were saying the same thing about nVidia not being able to catch up when R300 and R350 came out. I think the graphics world is fairly well balanced right now. It's a see-saw as to who's in the lead at any moment, but they both have their times to shine.
By the way, I remember the P10 core from Creative (ex-3Dlabs) was supposed to be a big deal, as was the Parhelia. Nothing in the video card industry is certain until it's released and
final drivers are released.
EDIT: BTW, you really do need to get some female interns. Look at what Morgan Webb did for "The Screen Savers." That otherwise unbearable show was quite enjoyable with her around. I justified my viewing by waiting for her to appear. Then she was immortalized by the Madonna fiasco. She's gone and their ratings have tanked. Now I don't know what to watch from 6:00 to 7:00.
