Carmack rings in on his R300 vs NV30 thoughts. It’s also interesting reading about the new OGL extensions. The floating point pixel shading really has me tempted to drop three or four hundred bucks and getting back into graphics programming to write some real time filters . Still, not sure if I need a dustbuster in my computer (70+ dB for the GFFX!). I’ll probably wait until prices and noise levels come down. Reading Carmack makes one want to be a better nerd.
