here''s someone who can corraborate (sp) what i said about high poly-counts of the v5. this is from http://www.3dgpu.com/editor/re_3dmarkflaws.cfm

"Notice that I did NOT use 30,000 polygons or more in this test. Yet, at 400MHz and with a TNT2, it is clear that the CPU is the bottleneck except at low polygons and 1 light. Faster fillrate (by overclocking the core) and more bandwidth (by increasing memory frequency from 105MHz to 183MHz) did not make any significant impact on the scores. Now just imagine what a 1 billion pixels per second Voodoo5 6000 can do. It will do nothing."

so if developers start using very high-poly counts, which they prolly will with HW T&L and 800 MHz CPU''s coming out. but a v5 6000 will still be CPU limited. it may run faster than a geforce, but it son''t be giga-pixel rates that you payed $600 dollars for
