So let me get this straight.

We got Doom 3 early.

And you get the Kia of graphics cards.

...

Works for me!

what do the benchmarks say for this card?
I've never heard of it before.

S3 DeltaCrap
S3 DeltaCrap Type-S

*snip*
It can compete with the morally and technically outdated GeForce FX 5600 Ultra and RADEON 9600 PRO, but the updated mainstream solutions from ATI Technologies and NVIDIA Corporation do not leave S3 DeltaChrome S8 Nitro a single chance.

And that doesn't even take into account the utter bitchification the NV40/R420 will lay down.

Why would I get a deltachrome for Doom3 when I have a 256mb MSI 6800 GT and a 128mb MSI fx5900 XT at home?

When I get a deltachrome it will be because it has some interesting features which I want to test. If the PowerVR Series5 ever makes it to market then I will purchase that as well for the very same reasons!
