Polish Parhelia confirmation

[Evildead666]

I don't think everyone is collectively mobbing...
it just seems to be a collective surprise...

Has anyone any ideas as to what size the die process is gonna be made in for Parhelia.
I know the most likely is 0.13µ but could it even be possible they bring out some versions next year in 0.09µ?

Higher clock speeds etc...

[Novdid]

I atleast tried to be gentle...

[cbman]

My wife always says I'm an a$$hole... so I am just trying to fit the part.

Folks, I'd like to sing a song about the American Dream. About me. About you. The way our American hearts beat down in the bottom of our chests. About the special feeling we get in the cockles of our hearts, maybe below the cockles, maybe in the sub-cockle area. Maybe in the liver. Maybe in the kidneys. Maybe even in the colon, we don't know.

<singing>
I'm just a regular Joe with a regular job
I'm your average white suburbanite slob
I like football and porno and books about war
I've got an average house with a nice hardwood floor
My wife and my job, my kids and my car
My feet on my table, and a cuban cigar

But sometimes that just ain't enough to keep a man like me interested
(Oh no) No Way (Uh-uh)
No, I've gotta go out and have fun
At someone else's expense
(Oh yeah) Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I drive really slow in the ultrafast lane
While people behind me are going insane

I'm an ****ole (He's an ****ole, what an ****ole)
I'm an ****ole (He's an ****ole, such an ****ole)

I use public toilets and piss on the seat
I walk around in the summertime saying, "How about this heat?"

I'm an ****ole (He's an ****ole, what an ****ole)
I'm an ****ole (He's the world's biggest ****ole)

Sometimes I park in handicapped spaces
While handicapped people make handicapped faces

I'm an ****ole (He's an ****ole, what an ****ole)
I'm an ****ole (He's a real ****ing ****ole)

Maybe I shouldn't be singing this song
Ranting and raving and carrying on
Maybe they're right when they tell me I'm wrong

Naaaah!

I'm an ****ole (He's an ****ole, what an ****ole)
I'm an ****ole (He's the world's biggest ****ole)

<Spoken>
You know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna get myself a 1967 Cadillac El Dorado convertible, hot pink with whaleskin hub caps and all leather cow interior and big brown baby seal eyes for headlights, yeah! And I'm gonna drive around in that baby at 115mph getting one mile per gallon, sucking down quarter pounder cheese burgers from McDonald's in the old-fashioned non-biodegradable styrofoam containers and when I'm done sucking down those grease ball burgers, I'm gonna wipe my mouth with the American flag and then I'm gonna toss the styrofoam container right out the side and there ain't a God damned thing anybody can do about it. You know why? Because we got the bombs, that's why.

<Spoken>
Two words. Nuclear ****ing weapons, okay?! Russia, Germany, Romania - they can have all the Democracy they want. They can have a big democracy cake-walk right through the middle of Tiananmen square and it won't make a lick of difference because we've got the bombs, okay?! John Wayne's not dead - he's frozen. And as soon as we find the cure for cancer we're gonna thaw out the duke and he's gonna be pretty pissed off. You know why? Have you ever taken a cold shower? Well multiple that by 15-million times, that's how pissed off the Duke's gonna be. I'm gonna get the Duke and John Cassavetes...
(Hey)
and Lee Marvin
(Hey)
and Sam Pekinpah
(Hey)
And a case of Whiskey and drive down to Texas...
(Hey, you know you really are an ****ole)
Why don't you just shut-up and sing the song pal!

<singing>
I'm an ****ole (He's an ****ole, what an ****ole)
I'm an ****ole (He's the world's biggest ****ole)

A-S-S-H-O-L-E Everybody! A-S-S-H-O-L-E

<Barking>
Arf Arf Arf Arf Arf Arf Arf
Fung achng tum a fung tum a fling chum
Oooh Oooh

<Spoken>
I'm an ****ole and proud of it!

jwb...

you are an idiot.
-everyone knows the GF4 MX is an NV17
-SLI or something like it makes no sense anymore unless you are talking about a multi-core chip (2 years away).

today's fastest GPUs are handcapped by memory bandwidth.

faster memory is exotic and expensive.

to take advantage of a dual architecture, each GPU would need its own dedicated memory (64-128mb each)

you just doubled the cost for no reason.

a wider memory bus enables the use of slightly slower memory. reducing costs.

an advanced GPU comparable in spec to the NV25 but with a few new tricks and a better memory bus would be a winner.

do not expect Matrox to leap over anyone. just as they did with the 400 when it came out, they will catch up or briefly take the lead. they lack the R&D to really compete in the performance market.

while i would be more than happy with a card with overall matrox quality that is fast enough to play current games and the games of they next year at 1024x768x32 at 60fps+ (actually i only care about UT2, U2 and D3) i still hope you are not right on that one
