Wondered if anyone could help me with a few answers that have passed me by:
1. with the arrival of the Athlon 64 we were told this was next gen stuff - just as soon as a 64bit OS arrived (which didn't happen in it's life time). Now we have 64bit Vista what happened to all the hype? No one's waxing lyrical about this 'huge step forward'. Is 64 bit just more hot air?
2. I went SLI a few years back with the 6600GT, which at £300 didn't really make sense. I now stick to high spec singles but why is Crossfire such a non starter?
I thought you weren't resticted to indentical cards which seems like a massive advantage. I eagerly antisipated the 2900XT (gutted or what) because I thought; buy this one, then next time I upgrade the 2900XT gets recycled as the second card in crossfire. Have I got this all wrong?
3. Can anyone direct me to a difinative guide or table were I can easily compare all these CPU, graphics & chipsets. Keeping up with all these QX6950, 3850, RV670, X38, 680 codes is making my head spin
4. What is the VOLE?
