<< According to the review, the AccuView AA should produce a more accurate AA than the Geforce 3's multisampling. I guess we'll have to see when more reviews come out. >>



Can someone that can read german or someone that reads that translation gibberish better than me confirm that I read that the new AccuView AA sounds just like 3dfx's Rotated Grid AA (finally real non-interfereing AA on an nvidia card)? If they've finally implimented it I think I might get a GF4 instead of 3 when prices drop.

<< Well, the "new" ATI drivers supposedly correct the "poor rendering bug" so if anything, the benchies should go a little down for the 8500 w/ newest drivers...not go up. >>



Nope, performance and/or feature sets have been steadily improving with every ATI driver release.



<< Isn't Evolva for OpenGL, Aquamark for DX8, and QuakeIII for QUAKEIII...the engines of all engines--of course it's going bye-bye very soon but whatever. >>



Quake III is for OpenGL, but it would be more relevant to use a newer game based on the QIII engine that requires more horsepower. The review over at Tom's (whether you trust him or not) has a much better selection of tests.
