Well, i had hoped that they would use 0.13 micron, as the first gfx company... The chip could run cooler or/and faster....

it doesnt really matter what the tech is so long as it runs at higher quality and faster than the compitition at launch. in fact i think its good that its at .15micron as this gives scope to switch to 0.13 micron within the next year for even higher clock speeds while keeping the board stable. if they can eek this much performance out of .15 micron think what they will get from 0.13 micron compared to the nv30/r300.is a flower best picked in it's prime or greater withered away by time?
Talk about a dream, try to make it real.Comment

Because .13 is a smaller and cooler running die. Otherwise it's kinda like some people perfering a 'vette over the 2003 Viper

well, i think it looks promising if they can make a card lake that at .15, gives room for improvement in future rehashes.This sig is a shameless atempt to make my post look bigger.Comment
