Re: "3DNOW is found only in a few gaming packages." Not true at all. Most new games have 3DNow support these days. You're kidding yourself if you think otherwise. I take it it's pretty easy to incorporate 3DNow support. (There's even an "unofficial" patch for the only major game I can think of without 3DNow support, Half-Life). Here's a nice (long) list. chiptech.com!/Support_FAQ/2-Built_In_Support.htm chiptech.com!/Support_FAQ/3-Patches.htm Impressive, huh? What was it you posted? "3DNOW is found only in a few gaming packages." <GGG> Funny. Gaming is driving the consumer PC market right now. Been to your local Micro Center recently? Check out the crowd in the gaming section. Please, tell us how AMD has been less successful with 3DNow than Intel with MMX. I could use a good laugh. Then again, it's pretty amusing that little AMD has been MUCH more successful with its new instructions than mighty Intel was. And that SUCKS for INTC. Kevin
