To me the exciting part is parallel cards- as an (almost thank god) 3dfx stock holder, I think its long overdue. |

I can't wait... we're talking 4GB Throughput! (200/250 MBps each way (theoretical)Think not only what this will do for games and video editing (which desperately needs this bi-directional throughput), but also Network Cards! no more bottlenecks. |

Then we'll get 2x PCIE, then 4x PCIE, then 8x PCIE, then we'll be back where we are right now with AGP. |

You know, it's about time for a change from the aging AGP / PCI combo.I am also very glad to see memory buses so fast these days. About a decade had to pass before 66MHz FSB was finally increased. It was eventually doubled over a few years. And now we are seeing incremental increases from 266.. 333. 400.. 533 in just a matter of several months at a time. |
