Default Why don't Nvidia release a 4600 DX9 card ????



From the benchmarks it would compete well with the new cards.

Though i'am not sure if the DX9 fetures would wack to a crawl or not.

Why don't you do some reading on the net to work out what a chipset
is.

Firstly, if you really knew what you were babbling about, you would never
have made the original post. To answer all of your questions, NO! Do you
even know what the difference betweeen DX8 & 9 is?
A week ago you say you just upgraded to a Ti200, now you're eyeing off a
9800 Pro. Nice card, it will up the ante on your current system, but dont
be imagining DX9 as being some sort of ultimate goal. Nothing runs DX9,
besides a few corporate Demos.
You see the surface, you know the names of a few technologies, you read
benchmarks. Ill bet you know all about Toms Hardware! A little knowledge
is a dangerous thing, and at the moment, you are a blazing canon.

If he's " A blazing canon" then how dare you insult a man of the cloth.
You are going to hell my friend.

Yeah sorry, I was a cranky sob yesterday, bad drive to work. I cant really
pay out anyone that makes serious posts in ngs.
Im always looking for an upgrade, but the current offerning from ATI &
nVidia leave me a little stale. Next gen should be due around the end of
the year, I think Ill stick it out till then.

Good reply. "Chimera" types know more than Joe average, but lack the
humility of an expert. The "blazing canon" reference along with the

entire
last paragraph suggests the pathologically desperate condition of a

nutcase
trying to hold onto his own self-concept, more so than the tech-savvy
sophisticate he surely considers himself to be. Expect a lot more of this
spewing forth from the struggling tech sector, and feel free to suggest

such
rambling be returned to the orafice from which it was issued.


LOL!!! Freud was right, I blame your mother too.

They did, it's called the FX series. Updating the pixel/vertex shader
support to DX9 is not a trivial addition..
