The card does sound amazing.  I hear they might start it at about $360US too, which is cheaper than I thought it would be.

Too bad they named it GeForceFX tho.  What a dumb name.  It makes it sound like GeForce 4MX... to me, anyway.

yeah there\'s been some talk about the name, it might sound confusing to the average joe since it sounds a lot like MX.

But nVidia has this whole Hollywood cinema graphic quality thing going.

I just bought a Gf4 Ti4200 with TV-out for $114 from Newegg.  Looks like it won\'t be lowering in price anytime soon after all so I\'m glad I bought it when I did.

$360 is a lot of clams, is this the highest a graphics card w/ no video capture has ever been released at?  I remember when I got a GF2 GTS [Elsa Gladiac] when it was out and I found it for like $242 on the net.

the specs on the nvidia dont look so narrowminded, do they?

i made the mistake of buying an ATI card once.
it will never happen again

they\'ll be back in the closet with cyrix soon enough

Yeah yeah, blah blah blah. And then what when ATi releases a Radeon that\'s ever faster than the FX? Pfft, it\'s a neverending routine. Just buy a card and be happy, instead of a bitter old fanboy who hates certain companies.

yep.. i buy cards only when the games need em.. i mean more then 1.  Give it a year then buy whatevers good then.. Cheaper and better. Unless your a Benchmark freak, u don\'t need 180fps etc.
