Damn you AMD for top locking your A64's.

And Damn you Via, get with the times. Make a AGP lock for christ sake.

That does suck though, but it's the only way they can sucker people into buying Athlon FX chips.

They couldn't sell a FX if it magically got Halo to play above 60 FPS.

And this is about computer hardware isn't it? Or am I being too general?

Believe me, I was thinking about it. 170 dollars for 15 x 240 sounds like fun, even though I wish they didn't waste so many clock cycles.

I hope VIA never gets better. In fact, I hope they get worse. They've screwed me without lube so many times in the past, I can't forgive them. Even if VIA introduced so many flaws their newest product was their worst yet, you guys would still buy them, and I'd still laugh and insult you.

Just wait until nforce3 250 chipset for motherboards to hit the retail channel at end of this month of beginning of Feburary for locked agp/pci, so you can raise your fsb speed until reaching your cpu/memory speed limitation. :)
