A little X700/GF6600 news from the InQ

The X700 to be released to the press about a week after the GF6600 (supposedly to tweak core/memory speeds like they did with the X800). The InQ also got just under 8K in 3Dmk03 with a high end P4 and the GF6600GT.

FUAD's english isn't up to speed in that article IMO. I blame drugs and alcohol. :wink:

And as an added bonus, a nice comment on the state of ATI's multi-monitor support. Going from great (when they were second to only Matrox IMO) to pretty sad if you ask me.

But I guess before the idea of better IQ on the R3XX series over the FX series was worth the price of installing third party software. They no longer have that luxury, and really Hydravision needs an overhaul IMO (and please add surroundView whiel you're at it ATI).

The 6600gt look like its gonna dominate the mid-range market...Am i the only one to think that nvidia will show off his amd pci-express (2x) solution at the same time as the card?

An egg is realy only just liquid chicken.

really sucks to be me about now, amd fan that I am. the only thing I don't like about the new cards nvidia is selling is the heat they produce. but, when it comes down to it, it's all about getting a decent card at a decent price, and the reading I've been doing about the 6600gt...it looks like a card I would buy if I was in the market for a new card right now, fanboy extreme or not

guess it just boils down to not liking what nvidia was doing in the past with their fx cards and such. felt like they was trying to rip people off. guess I just didin't care too much for that
