right after r600 from ati is released
 
ati's card is always better than NV's becuase they get to see what its like before they release there's. NV always wants to go first though.
 
I am never buying a new card ever again. I bought the 7900GT just as it hit online retailers and I'm on my 3 RMA. The damn memory voltage regulator is a POS on these cards, and since it's XFX there has been no revision. Should have waited for some long term reviews before buying. If I can sell off the new card that I will get from XFX, I just might get a x1950xtx. It is good enough for my needs, anything faster and my CPU will become a bottleneck.
 
I bit. $639 shipped...not too bad. Now who needs an X19 that doesn't sound like a jet?

dont ever buy an XFX they made the worse cards, eVGA corrected the problem.
 
I bit... $625 + $51.56 tax (CA) + $12.89 shipping = $689.45 total :(

I hope that they actually do have it in stock and it ships out tommorow.
 
I ended up cancelling mine. Fry's in PHX will have plenty of the EVGA's for 640. Just gotta wait til the 8th...
 
I think I am going to go with the EVGA 8800 GTS myself and if I feel I need more than that after oc'n I will step up to the gtx or something better if it's available before the 90 days.

What do you guys think?

Your gear is too nice and new ;)
E-bay :(

Or wait untill the DX10 is official in peoples hands and give deep discounts here :beer: you know you want to :p

Or maybe you need the funds for your DX10 :eek:
E-bay again :(

LOL :p
 
So from the looks of it a single 8800GTX will perform a little better than a 7950gx2... Unless I am mistaken, I saw a X6800 and OCed 7950gx2 pull 11K in 3d06
