"If Joe consumer is in Best Buy and see's S3 with 8MB and a competitors product at the same price with 16MB or higher he/she will go with the competitors product" Two things. If the price is the same for both you may be right. However if one is cheaper then you may not be. Secondly, if Joe consumer is looking to upgrade his graphics card then there is a good chance he has at least looked at some reviews in PC mag and the like. If Savage can get good reviews (and the advance ones have been good) and it has a good price I think it will sell. Of course the customer we are really interested in are the OEMs. They are hopefully smart enough to go with what is best for their price/performance needs. I just hope that is boards with the Savage chip. Phil
