Both of them really have been hard at it to create new technology.  Just imagine what it will be like in 2 years!

ATI CEO said in 2005 the games will look like the movies we see at the theater. With 64bit cpu's

This card needs one power plug not two and the ps you now have should work fine. Wow They just saved me $100

Snauz needs a Card nothing less than GF4 technology, or ATI Equivlant.
