係既話2010年NV都唔會有DX11

if the predictions/rumours of above site are 50% correct
meaningless to launch a product that sell us$500 and
manufacturing cost is $1000 or above.
NV doomed

if AMD new software work 50% as good as promised
the different between NV vs AMD driver will be much narrower.
with monthly update on gamer profile, four to six month
(counting from march) , the game profile become stable.
NV doomed

50% X 50%
approx 25% chance NV keep nose above water


chipset drop dramatically coming quarter
GT3xx is another rename stuff
GT4xx may sell one buck loss 2 or 3 buck

NV

雖然AMD獨大唔係好事，不過我都係要講句「淨係識整大牛龜，NV你都有今日啦，不思進取丫啦。」

the real ceo has said NV migrate to the 40nm process a little bit late.

too bad for NV to overlook the misery ATI guy, they learnt bitty lesson from R6xx late.

AMD really get beating by intel tick-tuck approach.
now it is using the advance process to kill NV.  
given that the complete r8xx/Everygreen is line up,
engineer can concentrate on 1) improve the yield and
2) next generation r9xx 28nm process.  

still an under-dog in cpu area, let see how the multi-core
and later the X times cpu-core + Y times graphic core will bring up.
will be quite fanny then.

只要RV8XX同Phenom融合成功，AMD就有轉機。

1) expect to see fall/2010 , the 2nd generation 4770
i.e. an 28nm 5750 or 5770 to test the process
at that time, the fermi may be finally out of the mud (40nm process hell)

2) AMD may not take too much risk for the first generation fusion cpu.
if put a 5870 core with the cpu may cause the size too big (fermi case) to make.
probably a mid-level GPU , easier to make.  
also, even with the hardware ready, without the software help a.k.a. microsoft
won\'t take off

so NV real CEO is really stupid to with Intel / MS.  

some big kid you can only

DX11冇用，激M$
CPU冇用，激Intel
而家chipset唔比你玩，DX11制定又唔預你，死未。

[ joking mode/on ]

no cpu
no chipset
gpu delay one delay two delay three delay four

end up - 被 VIA 收購

NEVER Expect ATI Driver to improve to "nVIDIA" class of stable and optimized

only times can tell.

so, I just make prediction/assumption that ATI can deliver 50% of their promise.

just like the Catalyst driver month scheme, most think ATI will not able to keep
it regularly as history saying ATI always delay.  

10.3 - gamer profile on seperate file instead of in the driver is a big conceptual change.
just take 6 months time to have it stable and rock&roll.  
i.e. 10.9 should make most game playable

you know $$  the way  $$ pc game developers being pay.  
so if NV driver is 100 mark, ATI get 60 mark is very outstanding.
remember that batman game
