P4 3.06 is comming out in a month I think, SiS 655 chipset boards should be available soon, and the ATI 9700 Pro card should be around 20% cheaper in 2-3 months.

yeah, just buy after x-mas prices 'll go up anyway for the holidays definetly check out the iwill mobo with dual ddr coming out soon, as for radeon 9700 being cheaper in a few months yeah probably beause the nv30 is coming in Q1 of 2003 or so and is "on paper" twice as fast as the radeon

technology is never standing still, if you wait wait a month but nut a year caus than you can keep waiting your whole life

Remember the time You used 20Mb harddrives

Simple question: Where? I'm not seeing any paper on the NV30 from nVidia at all.

The 3.06 is coming out offically this week, not a month from now.

It's even available for sale at Googlegear, a mere $690!

They keep pushing this thing back. By the time the nv30 comes out ATI will have something to kick Nvidia's butt again. :smile:
