Well.... you know <tongue in cheek> the TNT2 chip as designed by nVidia can actually run at 500mhz per specs, it's not nVidia's fault if the board manufacturer does not decide to use liquid nitrogen cooling </tongue in cheek>. ( if nVidia PR wishes to send me a job offer, please forward to fullofit@yourmail.com)* I love the nVidia hype machine, because EVERY time they do this, more people realize what is going on and I feel more confident in the initial reasons I invested in 3dfx. Industry leader, good roadmap, delivers what is promised and delivers well. I still would like to get a V3 2000 PCI with TV out for multimonitor support (ahem OEM version)... that way I could use a second monitor (TV) in those instances where I can't (ahem) ALT-tab out of a GLIDE game.

3dfx OEM with.. Volkswagon?!? (I'm not even going to explain... see link) I swear could you imagine seeing one of these on the street?!? LOL! prnewswire.com LOL! So do they we got the Bug bundled with that little flower on the dash and a V3 3000? ROFL! "3dfx inside"? ROFLMAO! On the bright side... even though a Bug does not invoke pictures of BLISTERING speed like a V3 box-theme Corvette (cool), they are definately cheaper! I WANT ONE! :) ... okay... maybe I just want to see one.... If anyone goes to E3, PLEASE post a picture!!! LOL! Jeff "why didn't the newswire & 3dfx PR site pick this up" P.
