Yesterday you may or may not have heard nVidia's announcement and showcase of its new $500 graphics card which is due out at the end of May. It's so powerful that Epic Games is finally able to show off its Unreal Engine 3 technology at a decent framerate. The engine won't be around til sometime in 2006. There's a video floating around the internet now showing the power of the engine and the video card, and if you drooled watching Half-Life 2 and Doom III videos, you're REALLY in for a treat now.

The resolution and overall quality of the video really doesn't do it justice, but since it is motion you can get a better idea than you would with still images imo.
