Read this about G800!!!

Another mail from an hardware reviewer

....If the Matrox customers wait for a G800 "anti GeForce 3", liquidating with one struck, it is easier that I alone construct that card that to wait for Matrox....

OT:

I never said I was a hardcore gamer. It says "I'm hardly a hardcore gamer. I play maybe 2-3 hours a week."

--------------------------------------------
Rumor of the day: Matrox to announce new generation card on anniversary of G400 release, (but hopefully not the third anniversary).
--------------------------------------------
Note; We do not apologize if this has been posted before as who the heck can remember all the speculations that have been made.

I mean we are way beyond three dimensional chess here...and the only NDA I am under anymore is with the wife and has to do with that little flirtation at the grocery checkout line the other day.....

too lazy to look it up, when did matrox announce the g400? was it sometime june '99?

[cjolley]

As I recall, it was on or about my birthday: May 10.
I tried to talk Haig out of a Max.
Maybe I should try again this time around

Ok. If anybody mentions the three words "late ..matrox.. products" in the same sentence, I swear I'm gonna get suicidal. First of all, for a product to be classed as 'late', it first must be ANNOUNCED, then it would have to be brought out after the time they said. Therefore, matrox has not brought out a late product. I think that matrox should bring out their next product when they want. Good on 'em. They don't have to bring something out as soon as another company does. Besides, I don't have the cash to upgrade just yet, so I'm happy.

Um, some fair points have been raised, some interesting info found, but can we not let this thread die? I think everyone's just about bored of this...

We can only hope Matrox tell us something soon, but please! NO MORE SPECULATION!

Maybe if you find real news (like Ant did with the drivers), then post that - but not rumour crap etc...

I'm quite tired now.

I think I'm gonna so sleep.

According to Amigaone ML, 26th March 2001, Fleecy Moss, Amiga's development products area vice president, declared that, among the graphic cards which will be supported by the new AmigaONE, there will be a new Matrox card as well as the G450. Perhaps he's referring to the G800 ? Time will tell...

In the meanwhile, NVidia will be ready with its last release: NV50 ?? ; ))
