    Yeah, but in this case it's made worse by the image quality problems the P128 has. If it is a hardware problem, hopefully Matrox will at least replace the defective boards with fixed ones.
    heh like that's going to happen thought. Welcome to the business/sales world

    • thop: I wonder what MURCers we could put in our "front line". Is there *any* MURCers who we might consider to be "cannon fodder"...hmm...

      hello Marketing. Want to market me some products? I'm not going to buy a Parhelia 128MB Retail as it currently stands. I want a faster gaming solution. Will Matrox provide this soon™?

      I expect an announcement on any such product before 14 days have passed. Will my expectations be met?

      Will your current product range be receiving any price reductions?

      P.

            • The BBz test drivers, not hardware.
              In fact, the Ps we have are not even release versions. They are "production samples".
              IOW, the hardware we have is older than the Ps any normal user has....so, no, no "new-gen" hardware to break NDAs over here...

              • hehe i actually meant the next next generation hardware. (psst: Parhelia II)

                P.S.1 : so you still have that huge heatsink-fan on your Parhelia? or did you mod it?

                P.S.2. should i assume that you were a BBz since you got the prototype parhelia?

                  I have personally only added ramsinks to my P. Otherwise, it has the same retail fan/HS that everyone else has.

                  And I(we) am(are) still a BB(z), in the capacity that I test beta DRIVERS, as I stated in my previous post...the latest set of beta drivers being posted to the BBz yesterday...the 3rd set in less than 2 weeks.....

                  • anyone else pissed that the 256MB version is clocked down from the original? 200 vs. 220 and same with ram

                    • Hmmmm...
                      No.
                      That is only 0.1x difference.
                      Only people who like playing 3DMark would actually notice the difference....

                          Bah. My Parhelia is slow enough as it is. NOLF2 pushes it to the limits at 1024x768 w/o FAA or FSAA

                            Still, M release a new card with lower clock speed... That is really bad...

                              That's all I'm saying! I could give a fork about benchmarks!
