I can't say I am happy about that! for me I always think of AMD and Nvidia going together! :( hmm, well, maybe this could turn out to be interesting! is it time to buy some AMD stock? hmmm :idea:

Its true!? I thought they already said it was just rumors!

Wow, I don't really care anyway. I don't have a preference for video cards. :) But I'm leaning towards ATI because my old 9600XT and my current X700 Pro are doing fine.

But my Geforce 4 MX440 a while ago was good too.

Maybe in a few days we will hear more about it.

I think it might help them but like what was in the article it could cause AMD more problems than it might be worth.

Bad news, NVidea make the best chipsets for AMD processors, will they still do so? dAVE
