ATI and NVIDIA Product Names And Shipping Info
AnandTech is reporting that the first retail samples of ATI's R420 (AGP Radeon X800) will debut April 26 as Radeon X800 Pro. NVIDIA's NV40 (GeForce 6800) officially launches April 13th, but retail availability will occur around April 26th. Notice the NV40 product to be released April 13th is GeForce 6800, not GeForceFX 6800. ATI's naming scheme for R420 has been closely guarded as well, but the open term we hear from vendors is "Radeon X800."

nFORCE nVMixer 1.0 & 4.31 audio driver
A very clever trick was pulled by Mat from http://www.NVPlanet.com, the man couldn't wait for the all new nVMixer for nForce owners. So he decided to try installing the nVMixer contained in the nForce 64-bit package released today along with the latest drivers from Windows Update on my XP 32-bit and it works fine. They are not supported by us nor by nVidia so use at your own risk

Preparing for PCI-Express
For nearly anyone in this market, the idea of spending $300 or more on the latest and greatest graphics card to play the newest games is enough to make then cringe. However, these people are now faced with the potential need to upgrade their motherboards and likely processors in order to adopt PCI-Express. In a best-case scenario, you are still talking hundreds of additional dollars. Then again, who is to say that we will see any immediate benefit from PCI-Express in the first generation of cards?

NVIDIA nForce3 250Gb Performance Preview
Now NVIDIA is back again with its follow-up to nForce3 150, dubbed nForce3 250. Whereas nForce3 was originally intended to compete in the workstation segment with nForce3 Pro 150, and eventually adapted to serve the needs of the consumer in nForce3 150, NVIDIAs nForce3 250 merges the needs of the workstation segment (where features and performance often take a back seat to stability and reliability) with the speed and eye-catching features consumers want to see in a motherboard.
