have u guys seen this thing? apparently the games will have graphics as good as Toy Story! so what about the radeon 9700? which one is/will be better?[/quote:88575]

Gams will NOT have graphics as good as toy story, tech demo's yes but graphically games aren't gonna make a quantum leap just because nvidia have FINALLY managed to finish their much bullshitted about card 4 months or so late. The best graphics ive seen so far on pc are doom 3 and even thats a long way of being toy story standard graphics.


Just because it has dx9 funcionality doesn't = uber graphics all of a sudden. The 9700 has dx9 features and was the first card to have them but directx 9 isn't even out yet. By the time dx 9 does come out AND developers start coding games for it the nv-30 and radeon-9700 will have been long since superceded.

Both the nv-30 and the radeon 9700 didn't really need dx 9 support at all. Its basically another check mark they can put on the box so they can list it as a feature.
