I've been trying to keep my wits about me during this Geforce 3 information blitz. Personally, I think it's a terrible time to release such a product and that only a fool would spend that much on a graphics card based on it's performance in an engine (Doom3) which probably won't even be finished for another year and a half. (I do realize that some of you out there are interested in the card for reasons other than gaming, but you're few and far between.)

This being said Digit Life does in fact have lots of benchmarks comparing the Geforce 3 to the Geforce 2 Ultra and ATI Radeon. Keep in mind these guys have no idea how to chop up content into multiple pages, have no idea what thumbnails are, and have a weak grasp of the English language, at best. Anyways, if you're brave enough and desperate enough, click here for the benchmarks. Don't be surprised if the link goes dead, because these guys are going to be getting hammered.

#7980 Posted on: 02/17/2005 08:58 PM The Register has posted a review of IBM's Thinkpad T42p. The T42p sports ATI's Mobility Fire GL T2 workstation graphics chip. What sets a workstation chip apart from standard graphics chips is its certification for use with certain high-end graphical design packages. So if you want a notebook to run a CAD package, or a 3D rendering application, you'll want one that has a graphics chip approved by the software vendor. That way, when you run a preview of that complicated scene that you've been working on for days, you know it will work. This really does look like a mobile workstation. You might want to take a look.

#7983 Posted on: 02/17/2005 10:25 PM The guys over at SFFTech have posted a review of Iwill's ZMAXdp SFF. If I'm not mistaken, Hooz is running one of these units in the secret 2CPU.com underground test bunker. After previewing two "engineering samples" and now reviewing the final shipping product, we can confidently say that the ZMAXdp continues to amaze us.
