Cool, I didn't know /prog/ existed.

Were you impressed with John Carmac's Rage + iPhone demo?

Oh, [i]geometry shaders[i]. That thing must be a monster. Next purchase: some Intel integrated graphics. They have DirectX 10.1 support, they must be awesome.

I mean, PowerVR promises 14 MPolys/s on that incredible chip. That's like, one hundredth of what a mid-range mobile graphics card done by a real company will get you today. Now you have enough power to run games similar to what we had in 2003. I'm sure these geometry shaders will come quite handy in there.

Next thing you know these awesome ARMs will get you an twentieth of the performance of an i5.

It's a mobile chip. It consumes little power, that's good. But performance? Get real.
