good for a laugh !

maybe some truth in those fake interviews
Jake Simpson (Electronic Arts)

`And your worst moment?
Hmm, so many to choose from? Probably telling the Head of Dev Rel for 3DFX drivers at QuakeCon how crap their drivers were, and that anyone who thought 3DFX would be around a year from then was seriously deranged. All without knowing who she was, or who she worked for. D’oh! '

uhm sorry what is there to laugh about it's more sad to read actually sound so anti 3dfx to me   :-/

That's okay, it's just a fake.

Nevertheless...

In a formal press release read to major gaming sites, 3DFX has "one upped" the video card war by telling nVidia to "eff off and die".

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

That's pretty much how I feel. I 100% agree with all the anti-nVidia statements in that article!  ;D

Mind you, I was right. They were gone within a year.

Group buy for a metal pole long enough to smack that guy in the head!  ;)

lol listen I hav eboth ATi and nVidia cards never had problems with both really I'don't see the problem with both either, 3dfx will always be the main thing but my cards as:

Leadtek Geforce4 Ti-Ti4600 AGP 128MB DDR 2.8ns [NV25 4x2 Pipes 4 Vertex Units]
ATi Mobillity Radeon 9800 AGP 256Bit 256MB DDRII 2.5ns  [R420 8pipes, 4Vertex Units]
XFX GeForce 6800 GT AGP Dual DVI 256MB GDDR3 1.8ns [NV40GT 16 Pipes, 4 Vertex Units]

these all three perform well and I see no problems with ATi as nvidia so stop the Bull crap please thank you.

I'm sensing this is more like a flame topic and it should not be taken seriously

Lock Please!

Relax man.  ;D This is all just fun and games, we all have preferrences as far as cards go and that's our own opinions, I have to admit that the first link was pretty funny. This forum is mature enough to not dog each other because of our own opinions on cards so take it easy. We're all friends here.  :P

I second that! Absolutely no reason to lock a thread becuase we are stating our own opinions.  :)

I'm gonna drink a crate of beer lol  ::)
