      Easily, in fact look for Matrox's R420 killer in 2006-2007.

          They say that it is PCI Express and that the R400 will be AGP. Either way it should be interesting.

              At least as long as Geforce Ti and FX series that you barely could unplug an IDE cable or install memory without removing the video card, no they don´t.

                          It's the "hippie" thing. A group called the Waldos.

                            I find it funny that ATI is code naming their next gen card 420 because in our family the older generation plays a card game called 420, which is pretty much exactly the same as playing bullsh*t.

                            I hope ATI's not pulling any legs on this next revision.
