Creative making a Radeon 9700?

What the hell?

Looks like a sweet card, but I had no idea that ATI was selling chipsets to Creative Labs.

Hmmm... is it black? I'm still waiting for a black 9700 🙂 If it's black... i think i just found my next video card.

This is old news. (At least it has been over at Rage3D.com.) Creative jumped from nVidia to ATi.

ATI always have kick ass boxes

I was under the impression Creative would be releasing cards based on the 3D Labs P10 GPU since they aquired them. 😕

Hercules- Europe
Creative- Asia
ATI- North America

I thought Creative doesn't make videocards anymore? They're off the scene for quite a long while.

i knew they were coming back with the p10... but the ATI thing caught me off guard.

did you guys read the system requirements?

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Genuine IBM® PC or 100% compatible Personal Computer
Intel® Pentium® II or AMD® K6 processor, operating at 350MHz or faster
128MB system memory or higher
50M available hard disk space
AGP 2.0 compliant slot or better
CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive
Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows 98SE or Windows Me

Can you imagine running a Radeon 9700 on a K6 350 with 128 megs of ram running win98se with a 2X cdrom with a 300meg hd and a 14 inch monitor?

LMAO that would be one slow system even with a 9700. 😀
