OWN3D!!!!
Looking at the cream of the crop in video cards, it is painfully obvious that ATI is going to have to make some changes in their product line to stay competitive, at least with DOOM 3 gamers. There is no way for a $500 X800XT-PE to compete with a $400 6800GT when the GT is simply going to outperform the more expensive card by a good margin. I am sure ATI is trying their best to figure out their next move and it will certainly be interesting to see if their driver teams pull a rabbit out of their hat or not.

When I said the GT is t3h pwn, nobody believed me. Now what can you say?

Ati needs to smarten up and get cracking on some better opengl support, or I fear many will jump ship just because of d3. It's kinda funny though, ati is king of direct3d and nvidia is king of opengl. It's like saying... if you want the best doom 3 experience get an nvidia card, but wait if you want the best hl2 experience grab an ati one. I guess it boils down to wich engine is going to be powering more games, doom3 or source and then pick your vid card accordingly.

There's too many variables and unknowns to actually give a final verdict. Not that I care... I'm not going to be playing Doom 3 on a machine like that. I want to know if it will run on my little machine in my sig and my brother's machine that I am going to build for him... that is all I need to know!
