GeForce FX Reviews Roll In
Defender2000 writes "GeForce FX NDA lifted today, reviews are up at ExtremeTech, Tom's Hardware, and HardOCP. So far, it is indeed better overall than the 9700Pro, but not enough for it's price. Perhaps NVIDIA has something up its sleeve for the long term?" There's also a review at Anandtech, about which reader StrongBad writes "Unlike the rest of the reviews, however, wonderboy

using some nifty on mouseover java commands."
The Graphics card that breaks the 10,000 product number will take up two PCI slots as well as the AGP one, need an IDE channel all to itself, and may or may not require you to sell your first born.
:-P
They probably wont go with the last one though. Who is going to have both children AND a next-gen graphics card?

Sorry, but my karma just ran over your dogma.

Don't do this! I've been fired twice for doing that. Same thing happens when you spit in the chip frier, and even the hamburgers.

Finding out that nVidia's upcoming card will cost more, offers little to no performance increase, and will be loud and hot: Priceless
