S3's DeltaChrome Graphics Chip

Noob Jones writes "The Tech Report has an article about a new video card in the works at S3. 'S3 Graphics is back with a new chip, dubbed DeltaChrome, which looks like it might just be strong enough to become a player in the mid-range consumer graphics market.' With a third player back in the graphics market both Nvidia and ATi are going to have things to worry about but this can only spell good news for customers."

    You do when they tout them as 3-view gaming uberbeasts. Bottom line is : Matrox now officially anally sucks goats. Yes they do have outstanding image integrity and crispness, but they've had that for nearly two decades now and there isn't much room for improvement. I'd like to see them team up with NV or ATI to use these industry kings' GPU's but with Matrox's premium-quality output stage circuitry.

    What's the use in having 10'000$ speakers if you're using a 50$ sparkomatic amp ? That's Matrox. What's the use in having a 10'000$ amp if you have 50$ speakers ? That's NVidia. What's the use in having a 10'000$ amp and 10'000$ speakers if you only listen to rap 'music' ? That's ATI.
