[quoteurl=http://news.com.com/2100-1040-963195.html]Graphics chip leader Nvidia is expected to unveil the fastest PC graphics processor yet at the Comdex trade show next month, but analysts say the new chip may be too little, too late.

Nvidia was expected to have its NV30 processor, to be sold as the GeForce 5, on the market by now. But problems stemming from shifting to a new chipmaking process have bumped back the chip by several months. Analysts now expect Nvidia to have a handful of new chips on the market by Christmas, but volume shipments won’t begin until early next year.

Rival ATI Technologies, meanwhile, has been courting PC hot-rodders for several months with its Radeon 9700 processor. By the time the new Nvidia chip is widely available, many are likely to have already made the switch to ATI, analysts say. (snip)[/quoteurl]
