I'd imagine the ending will be just fine. No one stupid enough to buy this card will ever find out what a ripoff it is.
 
I know I can't belive this you can have an SLI setup for 100 buxs more...and get the 512 also lol...plus 2x the pipes and everything so i thik that they need to pull there head outa there arse and re-think this...i bet they only did it so that they had something to base there new quadro on...

exactly
 
funny, I don't see a free PSU there, I see a $130ish PSU for a $400, 6800 ultra ($499) + extra 256mb of ram (probably $100ish) = actual worth of the card ($599), sad thing is that is Nvidia's retail price I belive, the moron who set that price should be fired and shot.

after seeing the specs I wouldn't be surprised if it had worse performance in everything compaired to the 256mb version seeing as the lowered the clock speed of the memory as well, 1050 vs 1100 so it's really like +$500 for 1-2 FPS less, what a deal :rolleyes:

That powersupply blows hard on top of it. Maybe if they threw in a PC Power and Cooling 510 SLI PSU and some Cracker Jacks we'd be onto something! :p
 
^^ I personally prefer gummy bears :santa:


Hey, I don't see the PSU that comes with it? Did I miss the pics? The add spoke of a modular PSU and that's about it. Now, it will be interesting to see if the warranty would cover other components as well :D. What happens if that PSU frys my MoBo?
 
Since you can revoke any Internet deal within 14 days after you got the hardware, someone should check this card out and post some benchies. Of course that would have to be someone, who has an extra grand which he doesnt need at the moment. :cool: ;)
