Graphics Cards

Nvidia argues for GPUs

(Click to enlarge)

They must, you know, argue for GPUs - they don't really produce much else nowadays. Tegra is a CPU but it still is quite far from what a company that wants to be in the cutting edge must built - plus the ARM core is licensed.

So, as someone who likes to see real facts, seeing a proper 0-60 scale would make more sense, as would also showing how Nvidia's high-end GPUs love faster CPUs.
Should one buy a X2 6400+ for a cheap price and add a $400 in graphics cards? Take a look at this TheTechReport article and say for yourself. Sure you would get a very good bang for your buck, as would the Phenom II X3 720, but $400 in graphics card doesn't play that game - it mostly likes to play the profit game. Until Nvidia can come up with really good PhysX support from major software houses, this is all a big moot point and you're still better off with a $99 graphics card - the HD4850 or HD4770 - and a $150 CPU like the X3 720, or an Intel E8000.

Don't mind green goblin's charts, after all, they probably don't even know SLi has micro-stuttering anyway.
