    Nvidia posts loss this past financial quarter

    Few people here ever read a balance sheet. Nvidia revenue last quarter $664 million. Nvidia continues to gain marketshare at ATI'S expense. ATI products division last quarter $222 million. Most of Nvidia's loss was due to a stock option payout. They have no debt and a lot of cash due to the...

    Anand's 9800 GX2 Review - 9800 GX2 IS KING?

    http://www.hexus.net/content/i...php?item=12294&page=10 It doesn't just squeak by the post, barely eclipsing the GeForce 8800 Ultra and ATI Radeon HD 3870 X2 - it batters them into submission in each and every benchmark. Indeed, the other SKUs do well to get to two-thirds of the GeForce 9800...

    Question on newer cards

    These sites, including the only review you mention, recommend the 9600gt over the 3870. Most of the test sites shows the 9600gt beating the 3870 by larger margins than Anandtech yet even Anandtech still recommends the 9600gt. http://www.firingsquad.com/har...performance/page16.asp If you?re...

    Question on newer cards

    Performance issues in Quake Wars and Call of Duty 4 give the nod to NVIDIA, especially when you take into account a lower average selling price for the 9600 GT. However we must recommend based on presently available data, and right now it looks like the GeForce 9600 GT is the better buy...

    Question on newer cards

    That's not what I've seen. http://www.pcper.com/article.p...522&type=expert&pid=11 NVIDIA continues to dominate in the World in Conflict testing and the 9600 GT continues that trend by besting the AMD 3850 and 3870 by significant margins at both 16x12 and 19x12.

    Question on newer cards

    Almost every credible review rates the 9600GT ahead of the 3870 because of superior AA architecture and performance. Nvidia's new video engine is great. So if the price is right go for it. Right after launch prices are generally higher but should settle back quickly.

    Should I get a 9600GT for $164?

    The Anandtech review is the worst I've seen from them. Why didn't they test with AA when all the other reviews show the 9600GT matching or beating the 3870 when eye candy is on. http://www.pcper.com/article.p...522&type=expert&pid=14 First looking at the most pertinent comparison, the 9600...

    Why is HD3870 slower?

    In many games 880GT is 20-30% faster than 3870 with eye candy. That's worth a few extra bucks MHO.

    AMD overoptimistic?

    In bankruptcy shares are generally but not always worthless. Shareholders are last in line behind secured creditors, and various categories of bondholders, of which AMD has many. In AMD's case bankruptcy would almost certainly render the stock worthless.
