nah the dreamcast was just as powerfull as the ps2 and it came out before the ps1, but sony convinced everyone to hold on for the ps1 cos it was "better" even tho it was crap at the time and it is crap now!

Nah, the Dreamcast was a killer console that never got the recognition that it deserved. The gfx and games were out of this world, i absolutely loved mine. Plus the added ability of online gaming and web browsing made it a real winner.

I wish I still had my Dreamcast.

Here's a great bit of gossip from Bit-tech about the RSX from nvidia.

Apparently it will be using different silicone to that which has been posited for the next gen nvidia cards and indeed it it rumoured it will be faster and more efficient (I've seen more info but can't find the link). I think that nvidia are keeping the power of the new RSX under wraps and just releasing the new desktop GPU's as previously posted....but that's IMO.

Burkett discussed how NVIDIA and Sony had used an upcoming product with many similar capabilities to the RSX to demonstrate the capabilities of the Playstation 3 GPU. The demos at the show were running on NVIDIA's upcoming high-end desktop part, and also SLI systems. It is unclear whether these were based on the new desktop part that we've referred to as G70 in the past, or whether they were GeForce 6800 Ultra SLI combinations.

So, if NVIDIA's upcoming part is capable of all that we saw demonstrated at the press conference, what is RSX capable of?
