Tech ARP : Wow.. That was some purchase!
NVIDIA : Yes, but it was in the pipeline for some time now. We only finalized the deal with AGEIA moments ago.
Tech ARP : Really? Why? Don't you already have SLI Physics?
NVIDIA : We decided that running physics on the GPUs just wasn't going to cut it, not even with the amount of power our GPUs have.
Tech ARP : Does this have anything to do with ATI?
NVIDIA : ATI has always been a bunch of useless also-rans. We will always be ahead of them, even in physics. No matter what they do, they will always be second place.
Tech ARP : Err.. Okay.. But since ATI starts with the letter A, won't they always be first in the alphabetical order, phone books, name lists, etc?
NVIDIA : Fine. ATI can have the telephone books. We want the rest of the world.
Tech ARP : Okay.. Coming back to AGEIA, does this mean you will be integrating the AGEIA PhysX processor into NVIDIA cards?
NVIDIA : Initially, yes. But eventually, we will integrate the PhysX silicon into every NVIDIA GPU. It will probably double our transistor count but hey, if ATI wants to play the numbers game, we can do it with transistor count too!
Tech ARP : What about SLI Physics and Havok FX?
NVIDIA : We will continue to support SLI Physics and Havok FX, but eventually we want the PhysX silicon to handle physics acceleration, leaving the GPU to do what it does best - graphics!
Tech ARP : Err.. Isn't this kind of reversing your opinions recently that using the GPUs to do physics was the future, instead of going the AGEIA way with dedicated PPUs?
NVIDIA : Not so. We have to remain on top of the game. ATI may be slamming a lot of crap on us, but we will make sure the suckers eat dirt! Buying AGEIA will allow us to do just that.
Tech ARP : So, there's no threat from ATI, even though they are trashing your cards by 50% or more?
NVIDIA : ATI has never been good for anything but vapourware. With AGEIA on our side, we will make them eat so much dirt, Canada will disappear off the face of the Earth!
Tech ARP : But will this mean an increase in price for NVIDIA graphics cards that come with the PhysX processor? Or will NVIDIA continue to produce cheaper cards without the PhysX processor?
NVIDIA : Not at all. We not only intend to integrate the PhysX processor for free, we will now price our cards at least 20% cheaper than ATI's cards. If we have a vision for the next 5 years, it's to drive ATI into the ground, once and for all. When that happens, maybe we will buy those boys out and then we will be at the top of the telephone books too.

Errrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..... YAAA... Now I know why I hate Americans. Look how rude this is?? I really hope this financial Crisis hits Nvidia hard. Ill be laughing my tits off. I really hope Microsoft decide to go with Intel's Ray Tracing architecture for DX11 and throw Nvidia out into the street and long away gone by by you loosers Nvidiot
Intel on the other hand.... " his is a great day for Intel. For too long, those wannabes in Santa Clara and Ontario have basked in all the attention. Come November, the CPU will reign supreme again! Why buy graphics cards when all you need is an Intel multi-core processor?
I can't give you guys much more details than this. NDA restrictions and all that, but we have been running Crysis on Nehalem samples and some Core 2 processors. I can't quote exact numbers but the QX9650 is getting frame rates in the upper 30s. Nehalem samples are currently 50-60% faster but we think it will be closer to twice the performance at launch. Eat that, GPU!"
From this I hope Nvidia is gone!
I get very frustrated when I read articles like this, Nvidia must surely be threatend?? bwhahahahaha. Bunch of money making rich tit heads.
AMD & ATI have my support all the way.
Love ya guys
