do you think there's a lot more to come from the 2900?

*checks ATi site*
I'm farily confident that with new drivers the 2900 will be faster than the GTS in virtually every situation, but how much has yet to be seen....

*sigh* so the wait continues....
The following in now in my mind;
"What do we want?"
"7.5's"
"When do we want 'em?"
"NOW!!"
"What do we want?"
etc etc, repeat to fade

There basically the same as the ones on the ATI site and still have the same bugs and performance issues.

Unfortunately that's without aa, and as soon as aa is applyed performance dropps off, rapidly.
Although this could (hopefully) be solved by drivers and it might perform like this with aa too....

Nobody is writing off ATI, and there's no need to call everyone a fanboy just because you are one Tom.
Nice little edit,
, shame your still bitter about somthing Ulf, why not come on MSN so we can sort these issues out, . Not calling anyone a fanboy just all the slander the HD2900XT has got recently when we dont have anything solid to go by, the card is running on Alpha drivers. If it sucks after a few driver releases I'll hold my hands up and say I was wrong.It says the exact same thing so I'm not sure what you're trying to accuse me of there, I just re-worded and shortened it so that it wouldn't run over one line each in 1024 since I'm picky about one or two words being left randomly scattered on a second line.Tom|Nbk said:Nice little edit,
As for MSN, I still don't think I want to be ranted at about HD2900XT non-stop and about how much of a fanboy I am, so I'm not ready to add you again yet.
I'm not bitter either, I just found it hilarious that you're still calling everyone "NvUK" and basically saying we're all ATI-bashing Nvidia fanboys when it's simply not true.Tom|Nbk said:
It's the HD2900XT being bashed, not ATI. You'll find the X1950Pro is still the most highly recommended card of the mid-range, and as I said you'll find that there was lots of "OMG this forum is an ATI forum" garbage back when the X1800/X1900 came out, and I bet you weren't one of the ones screaming that were you.

I have never said your a fanboy before that I can remember anyway
. Im just sick of seeing your bitchy comments on public forums now Ulf, end of the day if you have a problem with me come on MSN and we can sort it out, instead of bitching like a woman on a public forum. Dosn't make you a big man however much you may think it does , can think of many others thinking the same, back on topic now.You've said it once on these very forums.Tom|Nbk said:I have never said your a fanboy before that I can remember anyway
So standing up for everyone when you call this "NvUK" is a bitchy comment? Wow.Tom|Nbk said:
Personally, I'm not sure how calling this "NvUK" simply because your HD2900XT isn't popular is not bitchy.
I'm not trying to be a "big man", not sure where you got that from.Tom|Nbk said:Dosn't make you a big man however much you may think it does

Standing up for everyone, Ohes look its Ulf to the rescue give me a break jesus christ, it was meant as tongue in cheek. Last I say on the matter add me back to your ignore list I prefer it that way, and as said come on MSN for anything else.
As for the 2900 performance, there is a lot resting on the 7.5's for ATi let's hope they have pulled the stops out for these finals.

You're still on my ignore list, I just had the urge to check your post to see if it said anything good about the new HD2900XT drivers but instead I was greeted by more of your "NvUK" rubbish and simply had to reply.Tom|Nbk said:
I'm done now anyway, I think you have been told.
