AMD thinks Nvidia is done with gaming

Did he just call us fat? :mad:

Maybe Nvidia thinks that PC gaming is dying too.

I can't remember the last time it's been this quiet in the GPU wars. I don't think it's a case of PC gaming dying, more a case of NVidia being so caught up in legal battles lately that they haven't had time to focus on what's really important.

Sigh. Sometimes I wish a company such as Voodoo was still around. They revolved around gamers and always pushed for the latest technology in gaming. Maybe it's a good thing that nVidia gets out of the way, it will give smaller companies room to grow and more than likely produce BETTER hardware for us gamers :)

Except for when it come to not supporting 32 bit colour because of the performance hit involved. ;)

I think they were taken by surprise by nVidia's trnasform and lighting hardware
too.

amd should think about their driver quality :rolleyes:

Whose driver quality? 3dfx Interactive? nVidia?
If I recall correctly, some of the Riva 128's performance optimisations
resulted in less than stellar [for that time] image quality.

Sorry Necuno, I misread your post.

I can't say I have had any trouble with my Radeon's drivers
.

I only know of the x series cards that had really a problem with drivers, but improving is never a bad thing.


This might be bad for us or maybe nvidia is looking for a different way of entering the market again.
If AMD is the only gpu manufacture, it might not give smaller players a change. Because nvdia will still be there looking for those smaller companies to break its patents and what not.
