The unreleased 3dfx voodoo5 /w DDR and quad gpu is nothing far from this 8800. Sure we have faster memory and smaller micron manufacturing now.
At the time when 3dfx released the voodoo5 in 2000 it had something like 82 GB/sec of memory bandwidth vs the 8800 series that is about 84 GB/sec .
Meanwhile all this time before the 8800 series nvidia never gave us a card that went past 60 GB/sec of bandwidth. Took them a whole 7 years to give us what was in the closet. Now they want to give us QUAD SLI ? why not just give us QUAD GPU on one card like 3dfx was going to give us. Nvidia is just milking consumers slowly and nicely.
