The funny thing is that the nV40 IS actually a true 16x1 design! :lol:

Good to see you back on form again, we were getting worried, just the other day you almost seemed to be almost complementary about the NV40 (i.e. Fill rates from Hell etc.) NVidia , bunch of outright liars aint they ? tut tut.

...I probably WILL be a bit complimentary of the nV40 as it's looking to be a stomping card. Don't think that means I'm giving the crown to nVidia this round, I'm not...it's actually gonna be a lot tougher this time to award a crown. nV40 will be better at legacy games and D3 just because of that "fill-rate-from-hell", but I'm expecting the R420 to school it when it comes to DX9 titles still. I'm just glad that it's looking like both companies will be having decent cards this time, and I'm still leaning towards ATi to win this round. ;)
