What Ace failed to mention is that the drivers that ship with the nForce won't work with any games produced after the drivers, so you have to download "leaked" drivers from "fan sites", which nVidia conveniently calls "Explosivator" drivers. On even weeks, these drivers will be great for all new games, while rendering all old games into squeaks and grunts. On odd weeks, these drivers will produce no sound whatsoever, and every fifth week they will cause your machine to crash spontaneously.

What Ace _also_ failed to mention (and now I'm being quite serious) is that everyone who has optioned the nForce (i.e. motherboard manufacturers) have opted to manufacture the slimmed-down version which shares bus time with the AGP slot, the USB ports, and whatnot... and has lousy output.

Mmmmmff seems alright, for a first product, although i bet there are some stabily problems.
Anyone know if the integrated Gfx can be used as a secondary output, thus effectively having a dual AGP?
The 'APU' look pretty good.

Whatever next from nVidia, CPUs???

[Gurm]

Oh, that would be GREAT. nVidia cpu's - we get your calculations right... well, SORT OF right.

yea, that would give a whole new meaning to "fuzzy logic"
