A very good and interesting read. Thanks alyarb :)
About GPGPU:
With NV pushing CUDA and ATI pushing OpenCL, will developers mind programming for both (and how hard is it to do so), or might this be like BluRay/HD-DVD?
CCC = Catalyst Control Center of ATI cards. Link for CCC+driver download.
I'd suggest downloading the CCC package that includes the display driver, just to be sure you have the latest.
That's odd... 1680x1050 is 16:10, whereas 1920x1080 is 16:9. Knowing that a 16:10 ratio fills up the...
Not likely. (From Anandtech) This says 28nm won't be until Q4 2010, and that'll only be tape outs. I'm quite sure GT300 will be out by then.
Does anyone know TSMC's roadplan for the near future, i.e. if and when they'll do 28nm?

I like your mix of being very hopeful whilst also being extremely doubtful. I will try to adopt this myself - it sounds like a winning method ^_^
Edit: So, does this mean that you do not enable SLI/Xfire in their respective control panels? Also, is it still only capable through XP and Win7...
For NBA 2k9, I agree that PhysX is unneeded. There isn't much going on in that game, and the increase in quality from using PhysX cloth is unnecessary.
The extent to which PhysX is used in Batman and Cryostasis is great; and for the developers to create their own physics engine to produce...
With Maya now owned by Autodesk (thankfully), I can see an implementation into both Maya and Max. That would be fantastic, not only for ArchVis like SickBeast mentioned. OptiX? would make the visualisation of anything bar final renders tonnes quicker. (Though it could be used in final renders...
Crackdown on the 360 has some of the best LOD implementation I've ever seen. Water tessellates remarkably smoothly. I didn't notice it until I came back to the game after noticing the way-obvious LOD'ing in Crysis.
When you don't notice something, it's done well. Reversing car in a wood scene...
Cheers Blain :) That has the same latencies as the RAM I currently have, but it doesn't look half as cool. (Mine has fins. See here: http://www.corsair.com/products/xms2dhx/default.aspx)
I'm able to go to 64-bit. I don't quite have the time right now to do a reinstall to get to 64-bit, but I...
I currently have 2gb (2x1gb) ram in the system in my sig. Would it be best to replace it with a 2x2gb kit or just add two more 1gb sticks of the same make to get 4gb total?
If it's best to replace it with a 2x2gb kit, which make/kit is the best?
I'm running Vista Ultimate 32-bit...
