| "Voodoo5, which was physically incompatible with some of the Pentium4 boards has almost dissapered from the horizon, but it looks like we have a really nice "follower" for it... GeForce3. According to eyewitnesses, a Pentium4 system with GeForce3 is quite unstable, in some cases, even dynamic test could not be passed." http://www.reactorcritical.com/index.shtml#l658

| I've read it and, Ha Ha HA HA, nVidia kind of missed something. I assume the only people that would shell out for GF3 would probably have P4 systems. And their news release that the GF3 is optimized for the P4. |

| I agree it was probably Nvidia's screw up ... but everyone who would forego a Geforce 3 for the privilege of owning a P4, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HANDS!!! I'm definitely keeping my hands in my lap. and I think most people who love gaming would agree. Give me a fast PIII or even an AMD with a nice Geforce 3 Ultra and I'll be happy ... until the next thing comes along! Cheers! Tam

| Ouch! This is bad news for Intel and nVidia. Does anyone know if the Radeon has a problem with P4? If so, then what's left?  The chipset video maybe? Or is there an atitel consortium going on here?Hope this problem gets fixed before XP comes out. |

| I haven't heard of a problem with the Radeon, yet... nVidia, I heard should have the problem cleared up by the time the cards show up on the shelf. |
