Zertz Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Full Article I think that part is really interesting: "Apple uses the best technology for their [computers]..." Is that why the latest iMac uses ATI video cards? It's no secret that the guy hates Intel, but maybe he should take a second or two to think about what he says. Praising Apple when most of your sales come from the large PC OEMs and retail doesn't exactly sound like a brilliant business plan. Oh and, here's something else for Jen-Hsun to be proud of: Mac Pro video card options: # NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512MB # 2x NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512MB [Add $150.00] # 3x NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512MB [Add $300.00] # 4x NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512MB [Add $450.00] # ATI Radeon HD 4870 512MB [Add $200.00] So much controversial NVIDIA news lately!

tkrow21 Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 GT 120 for $150 or HD 4870 for $200? The man's probably smart, but he's not showing it at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhenKittensATK Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 It would surely be interesting to watch if any of his family members bought home an Intel based machine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zertz Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 i just saw an advertisement for a GTX285 in a mac. thought it would be funny to add. Really? As an aftermarket upgrade or actually an option offered by Apple? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol. Most Powerful for you MAC thats all you need to know there I personally find these things annoying, when I try to scroll down on a page I can't because there is no mouse wheel, and then that annoying keyboard <_< Nvidia is just totally failing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCFreak Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 I saw this on Tom's earlier today. Amazing. We have Macs for work, and for certain applications I do prefer them, but in the end the cost:performance ratio is just outrageous. My current machine will kick the crap out of nearly any of the current Mac offerings ... and I built it for $600. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 (edited) I already hate apple, and have a VERY high distaste for nvidia (lately). But whatever, if people want to pay more for a computer that does less so be it. Those people have IQ's too low to even bring them back. OCFreak, I guarantee you your workplace would be just as well off on PC's. Heck maybe they'd even have enough money to give you a bonus lol Edited November 11, 2009 by IVIYTH0S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind them for work applications or even some editing of images, but just knowing that my less than a $1000 Windows machine can absolutely destroy the $4000 Mac ... is just so satisfying.
