After its acquisition of 3dfx in late 2000, Nvidia said that 3dfx technology wouldn't make it into Nvidia chips until after the GeForce4 Ti (then known by its codename, NV25). It is said that the chip will be manufactured based on a .13-micron process (compared to the current .15-micron technology), which will makes denser, more complex chips possible.
3dfx technology and 0.13u, sounds good.

I've also read that the GF4 was the last "GeForce" card and there won't be a GF5. Does anyone know if this is true?

Hey Gnerma:

What kind of water torture? Thinking about getting the Ti 4400.

And also did you overclock you Northwood? If so, how high?

Thanks.

Timpoet, yeah I overclocked my northwood, but it is running at stock speed right now. Mostly because I have no reason to have it clocked up & it just plain worries me being that my cooling sucks. I only clocked my fsb to 112 because my memory does not overclock well. If your going to get P4/RAMBUS buy an i850E chipset board & buy the new Rambus 1066 memory. I don't recommend you get a 533 P4 just yet though, get a 400 P4 and wait for the prices to go down on the 533s.
