As I've said, I'm looking forward to the GF3 Ti500. That sucka kicks the ass of everything right now... (Keywords: Right now.)
Edit: Ok, I've dug out my box, so I can give you some more info on my card.
1) My Annihilator 2 is based on the GeForce 2 GTS card, and boasts being the first gigatexel card in the world.
2) It has 32megs of DDR ram, "providing 5.3 GB/sec of dedicated graphics bandwidth".
3) It has "the new NSR", allowing it to "perform per-pixel shading and complex pixel operations in a single pass".
3) It also has "per-pixel bump mapping, hardware anti-aliasing and cube enviroment mapping".
4) It includes support for MPEG1 & 2 Playback.
5) AGP 4x with Fast Write support.
6) 256-bit graphics architecture.
7) "the entire 3D pipeline onboard" lets you "process up to 25 million triangles per second".
Max screen rez of 2048x1536x32-bit @ 60hz.
Those are just the highlights from the back of the box.
So why get a new card if this one kicks so much ass? Cause the GF3 Ti500 is a LOT faster, it can do a TON more, and cause my current card is giving me problems. That's why.
