Well its Tuesday and nothing... no adds, no benchmarks, not even retailed on the Shopmatrox site... Nothing, I'm starting to worry that this card isn't going to come out at all since its been way to quiet about it. Maybe I'm just used to having the NV/ATI marketeering campaigns and being constantly bombarded with adds about things that won't be out for months and all the claims and eye candy and saving the world type stuff.
PLEASE SOMEONE STOP MY SUFFERING!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE STOP MY SUFFERING I need to know when I can make a PO from work to get it and a new monitor please please at least something usefull.

I know!
I've seen Morrowind on a friends system with a GeForce 4 Ti4600 and an 22" CRT!
Hell that looks great. Very nice water effects.
I'll wait for the Parhelia based cards to come out...
With programming something for my EX-employer, last weekl, I got about half of the money needed in one day.

How long do take reviews by the way? 8 days ago Ant posted the note about cards being sent out. And what about the NDA thing underneath... Are the reviewers not allowed to post results before a certain date? (Maybe when M announces the release [date]?) I'd expect the reviewers to publish something ASAP after benchmarking. Any infos?

A friend working for a german computer magazine (hardware department), said last week they haven't received a Parhelia based card from Matrox.
He wants to inform me, when they get one.
But there may be a chance he doesn't notice it, because the graphic cards don't land on his desk.
So I don't think I get the results of the tests....
As far as I know the results of the benchmark and quality checks can't be released before the NDA ends.
So we have to wait for the Matrox annoucement (or leaks).
I will not post the results, if I get them before the offical release date....but maybe I give some hints.
