    And #17 do you want to think for a moment what sort of insider knowledge John Reynolds has access to and then consider his posting? (If you know who he is that is...)

    Hey TheOne, why don't you try and look around before talkin crap eh?

    Why is everyone so sure that there is no DX 9.1? I think it's safe to say that Anand and the guys at AnandTech have a little bit more insider info than we do.

    Not that I'm saying that AnandTech doesn't tend to be biased towards nVidia and AMD, but this DirectX 9.1 thing is not "proof" of anything.

    There is no such thing as DX 9.1. The next generation of DX will be DX 9.0c. It will include some fixes to shader 3.0 (which was in DX 9.0).

    Anand,

    STOP kissing Nvidias ASS you moron.

    The is no Dx9.1!!!!!! Not even in your wildest dreams!

    Another vote for an XP-64 preview. Inclusion of some scientific benchmarks would also be appreciated. (I'd love to see some Computational Fluid Dynamics - CFD ones such as Fluent one of this days...)

    whats harder, computer engineering or computer science?
  • Anonymous - Sunday, January 18, 2004 - link

    I would love to see any info or opinions about XP-64 which you can release ;-)
  • Anonymous - Sunday, January 18, 2004 - link

    Oh yeah, lets see some 64-bit Windows, and benchmarks, too! (what's the point without?)

    Yea and why would we pay extra for DX 9.1 when it will be useless for all games to come. Only until 2005 will games utilizing the new DX come out.

    i'll bet Brian Burke told Anand to say that.

    There's no such thing as DX9.1. Never has been, never will be. PS/VS 3.0 is already built into 9.0. The DX9 minimum specification is FP24, though this does allow for _pp hints (partial precision, or FP16). FP32 is not a standard for DX9.

    I'd be very keen to see a preview of XP 64 but please DON'T include benchmarks. Benchmarks on beta equipment are meaningless but they tend to stick in people's mind. 1st impressions count.

    If you publish an article on XP 64 and it shows current games running slower than 32-bit XP it won't matter what you write above or below the graph people will believe XP 64 is slow. And by association the 64-bit features of the Athlon 64 are worthless.

    Article on feature and architecture, benchmarks no.

    How about moving to the westcoast and living it up with 50 degree winters and 60 degree summers. No worries about extreme temperature changes.
  • Morten - Saturday, January 17, 2004 - link

    I'd love a preview on XP-64.
  • Steve - Saturday, January 17, 2004 - link

    Preview anything you can. Us geeks love information in advance and being from you we know its "good" info.
  • Anonymous - Friday, January 16, 2004 - link

    Preview XP-64, upcoming Mobo's and PCI-Express, and Tejas.
  • Jojo7 - Friday, January 16, 2004 - link

    "Let me know if there's any interest in pursuing XP-64 as a quick preview article"

    Absolutely!

    I wouldn't be too interested at benchmarks at this point, but I'd like to know how the 64 bit edition works.
