Default Where for art thou Nvidia

Nvidia has been very quiet for about 2 1/2 month.

Are they gearing up for something big or just laying low ?

You should have said "still not as good as fglrx(8.41)"-driver

My twin war horses would beg to differ but, lets see 100.15.01 vs FGLRX 8.42 before we start to argue which driver is better.

Wow, that's the first hot chinese chick I've seen in a long time.

Now all Nvidia needs is a stunning brunette in leather and jeans posing on an old Harley.

And a new driver-version.

If you ask me, NVIDIA's Nalu is still better than ATI's Ruby. Though at least Ruby is an open-source girl

One could even draw lines from ATI's red to red being synonymous with communism which is synonymous with linux :O
The ATI picture before 8.41 would have meant "I look pretty but this bike doesn't have a fuel tank"

Shame on you

Did no one compare the image quality of these two? What do you think why I have chosen THIS ATI picture? To show you the improved image quality (what else did you think?) over the nVidia quality. And to demonstrate the performance, too, if you look carefully on what the ATI babe ehm the rendered Ruby sits.
