NVIDIA Ships Decent DX10 Graphics Card For Under $100
MojoKid writes "NVIDIA is launching a new mainstream graphics card today, aimed at consumers in the market for a relatively low-cost upgrade from an integrated graphics solution or older entry-level GPU. The new GeForce GT 240 features a GPU with 96 processor cores, 8 ROP units, and 32 texture filtering units. The GPU is manufactured using a 40nm process, features a GDDR5 memory controller (that's also compatible with GDDR3), and unlike NVIDIA's current high-end GPUs, the GT 240 is DirectX 10.1 compatible. For $100 or less, what's perhaps most interesting is that this graphics card actually puts up respectable frame rates with AA turned on and no external power needed beyond what a standard PCIe slot provides."
I like apples.
I like turtles.
A loop, by its nature, continues. If that didn't make sense, start reading this sentence again.
Proof that all Apple fanboys are hapless toddlers whose fanaticism for brands is exceeded only by their ignorance of the English language.
Are you asking if your top range, two generation old graphics card is now having its performance matched by a low end, current generation graphics card?
Can you clarify your use of the word almost? I read that chart as 30-60fps depending on resolution.
Are my standards too low?
