There was an article in Scientific American a few years ago that came to the conclusion that for full photo-realism, you would need around 300MP/s and a resolution approching 3Kx2K pixels (I think it was in 1994). I read through the 3dfx faq and the only thing I can say is \/\/hatever.
Also note, the latest and greatest specs from SGI on their infinite reality monster systems is 210MP/s at 1920x1024
