Creative GeForce Thursday?

Oct 19, 1999 12:36pm CST tags: NVidia
It looks like the Creative Labs GeForce cards may be released as early as this Thursday. Check out this post Billy spotted from Bill Ball, the senior technical marketing specialist at Creative. Here is the quote: "The target is Thursday. There are no hurdles in the way now, so it should happen. Recognize that this is just when cards begin leaving the warehouse. Availability at any one retail is not predictable. Some get them right away, many take weeks." You can check out my GeForce benchmarks (soon to be updated) here.

Shack vs NVidia!

  Oct 12, 1999 2:08am CST tags: NVidia
Well, as I mentioned a couple of days ago the post I made with screenshots of a Rage Pro LT achieving the same level of detail as a GeForce card caused enough stir over at NVidia to warrant an email from the developer relations guy there. Actually we traded a couple of emails. Here is the story as it happened guys, call me a commy bastard or flame NVidia. At any rate I'm pretty sure you'll find it interesting.
