How about an interleaved digital stream, no additional pins are required. Say it starts in a normal DVI mode, detects an HDMI connection and feeds the audio over the extra bandwidthQuote:

ok dokey. upon request by many.......
compare the 8800GTS 640Mb from Leadtek as comparison.......
Not necesarily. Silicon Image developed some chips which were supposedly capable of passing audio without violating the DVI 1.0 standard. I would have thought that this would require a revision of the spec but there might be a provision for transmitting additional data over the link. DVI does pass enough bandwidth to permit this so I suppose they could have allowed for expansion in the spec draft.Quote:

Good price, but expect GTS to drop way below that, scan.co.uk has the GTS for £214 inc VAT. That's a very good price.
new driver for x2900 OUT , they talk about + 10%-30% performence

30% more performance in what? Games or just more 3DMark?
my friend is testting and in VISTA +10% in HL2 and 3dmark 2006
With Windows XP should be better :)

Asus bundles Stalker and HL2 with R600
Launches on Monday
Asus is planning to launch a Radeon HD 2900 XT card on Monday and so far didn't want to sample. MSI also didn't sample its cards at least not that we know of.
MSI has a Borg on the cooler and you can see it here.
While Asus has a Stalker sticker, Asus has a Stalker one. Asus is bundling Stalker with every high end card they have and it is a good game. Apart of Stalker Asus also bundles Half Life 2 episode two, and the rest of the black box games.
The card is a reference one and should cost around €399 in the continental Europe.

Both ATI and nVidia drivers still lack alot in Vista. We gonna see this on all fronts for alittle year or so yet.
I expect that this is a driver error, cos VSM has been present since the 6800. See http://http.download.nvidia.com/deve...hadow-Maps.pdf for details.Quote:

It is somewhat worrying that, if there is nothing wrong with the ATi drivers, programmers need to optimize the code to make the performance acceptable (a factor 3 is insane).
Mascaras--great feedback, thanks! So your friend scored ~12,500 on 3dM06 with his E6600 at stock speeds? Was the 2900XT overclocked?
Nice to see the 15fps jump in Dark Messiah w/ the new drivers as well! It looks as if they are making progress.
Nice but aren't you locked down with HIS drivers only?Quote:
