"Has Nvidia Gone Nuts"

Fudzilla is retarded. I don't know what it is about them, but they cannot seem to hire many competent writers. This story is particularly stupid.
 
Honestly, who can take a name like FUDzilla seriously? and the Inq. has had a bad reputation for stupid or flat out wrong articles as long as I have been alive.
 
Someone should tell the Fudzilla writers there is more to computers than 3D games.

Seriously what a dumb statement, this is one of the times they should have refrained themselves from giving their opinion.
 
One thing for sure is that a GPU is much more complex than a CPU which is fact. Not to mention them having much much stronger arithmetic performance (~500GFLOPs vs ~50GFLOPs).

But then, i have no idea what the article was on about. He should stay away from whatever hes smoking.
 
Translation:

Buy our $600 GPU and a $200 CPU
Don't buy a $200 GPU and a $600 CPU

Just looking for a bigger piece of the PC pie. It holds some weight if the PC is going to be used for GPU intensive tasks, but not everyone uses their PC for primarily GPU intensive tasks.
 
For the average PC user they probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference between Intel's fastest quad core and my lowly Opteron. IE and Word run just as fast on either. But, pair a good video card with a middle of the road CPU, and you have a machine that can do anything alright. On the other hand that same super fast Intel Core 2 quad with Intel IGP will do some things well but may struggle with others (gaming).
