DeltaChrome S8 Nitro SuperPreview

JOEL JOHNSON — Tech Report has a monolithic twenty - three page dissection of the new DeltaChrome S8 Nitro video notice , S3 ’s first entry into the high - stakes PC 3D atom smasher mart . It wo n’t be on these shore for another few month , and it ’s certainly not going to stand up performance - smart to the even the mid - range card from ATI or Nvidia , but it does signalise a strong head start for a companionship that only recently decided to take a stab at this cutthroat market . I ’ll wager that the S8 Nitro will not make much of a splattering when it slay the gamer scenery , but could see some impressive sales to the OEM market , where a damage even a few dollar tatty can bring up to big saving for companies like Dell and HP . It might not be firm enough for Johnny Counterstrike , but it will accelerate The Sims 2 for your ma just okay .

The real conjuring trick , of course , will be visualise if S3 can get a good , faster , strong Cartesian product to market to compete with the new mid - range card from ATI and Nvidia that are just around the corner .
