Can't be bothered to search around for any links at the moment but S3 (owned by VIA afaik) are apparently releasing their new full dx9 video cards "deltachrome" to compete against ATI and Nvidia later this year ("later this year" is usually slang for "sometime next year, possibly" but nevermind eh..). It does sound very interesting and the specs sounded pretty darn good for a midrange card that's there first offering in a hella long time but they have a very bad track record as far as drivers are concerned and the fsaa options are very poor (I don't really like aa much anyway so I'll be happy if it allows them to concentrate on other areas but I know a lot of people wouldn't dream of playing without it). Anyway, the competition will definately be a good thing. I'm wondering what peoples opinions are.
Um. That is all... *hides*
 
well it will be nice to see what they can offer... also another taiwanese company are also going into the gfx card race... i think its xgi or something....


lets hope they do well and give us more choice and help improve the price and performance of the graphcis card market

Bumped because this forum is filled with useless 9800 threads and "which card should I buy?" and needs a little variation.
