I am so close to going off on Nvidia.

I agree with you 100%

That's one of the reasons that made me go ATI.

I just Wish Crossfire did not have the stupid dongle.

And also exactly why i sold my 2x 7800GTX cards and went ATI. I'm getting a crossfire master card for my x1900xtx soon.

And I'm not likely to buy anything Nvidia, be it motherboards or videocards, anytime soon. Wonder if their attitude wouldn't change in a heartbeat if revenue suffered sufficiently.

nVIDIA's attitude probably will translate in Intel users buying ATI cards.

One thing is clear: If nVIDIA wants to fight against the i975x chipset they will have to work REALLY hard.

nVIDIA rules the AMD word with its chipsets (IMHO the best AMD chipsets), but in Intel world things are very different and a NF4IE is not enough :nono:

For the moment, the i975x is unbeatable.

I'm wondering what nV is going to do when Conroe hit te market? Sitdown and watch how everybody buys a nice Conroe board (with intel chipset) and some ATi cards because SLi doesn't work? Let's hope not!

So hang on, in your opinion nVidia ticking off a TINY base of enthusiast SLI users is somehow a greater crime than Intel arm-twisting whole multi-national companies and governments into using their products and unfairly crippiling a competitor... right, that makes perfect sense!

:stick:

And no I'm not an AMD fanboy, thanks :p: last rig was a P4 3.2C, next one will be a Conroe EE!
