Q.> : Are the GeForce video cards the only ones that have the T & L capablity.
Thankz for the feedback
A.> : I don't play games personally but, however I try to stay up on the most
technology out there is for example I never keep a motherboard more than a
year. So I can stay on all the operating system's from Microsoft (Windows).
However, it's really funny all manufacturers say you bought the computer of
the feature. This is not true as some aspects of today games come out faster
than technology and is the most common things are video cards and sound cards
that change in technology. It seems today the game manufacture is playing
games with most of their client. This is my opinion here is a couple articles
will help you better understand.

S3 Graphics provides 3D graphics chips to the computer industry's leading add-in card manufacturers and PC OEMs. We do not sell any products directly to end users so we do not have an end-user technical support function.
