They're using slower memory (for the 125 speed), so it will be a little cheaper. 3dfx has stated that they will be making an OEM version of the V3. STB often has offered cut down versions of their cards to OEM's to shave the last few $'s from their price, so they'll be competitive at that level. The V3 should outperform the S4 and s3 has a pretty poor name with gamers right now (and it will be coming out 1 month after V3). For a month or two the V3 retail launch looks ok. Like Pat said, the next chipset will be key. The good news is that S3 has proven that they have as many or more problems as 3dfx in getting products out the door in time and 3dfx has been working on their new product for quite a while. Michael
