When the iMac and eMac get updated (hopefully soon), what can we expect for video power?



Will they part the waters again and have all Ati on one side and all Nvidia on the other?



Radeon 9000? GF4 Ti?

    Hopefully a lower end GeForce FX card, but that may be wishful thinking.



    This does belong in FH, not CH.

    The 7500 is actually a better performing graphics chipset when compared to the GeForce4 MX. The 7500 also provides better DVD playback. I'd much rather see the Radeon 9000 in the e/iMac lines.

    Video Card?, Sure!, But what about a decent G4 at around 1.6G?. Gee, i wonder why iMac sales are dropping?, Im going to get a 17" (probably for xmas), only if they are bumped with something decent. Should I expect a 1.6G - highly unlikely!. I suppose I could always wait for MWSF in Jan.
