:p:

Hopefully it'll be price drop galore once the 90nm G7's hit.

5.13b for ati?
How bout 6.2's.

some of them apparently used v6.1 catalyst though, assumably the newer X1900XTs.

I think they will discontinue the 7800 GTX 512mb when the 7900 series releases, which is the smart thing to do.

The GTX 512mb would lower in price if there were more GTX 512mb available, and that would mean that more 1.1ns ram has to be poduced, which I dont think is going to happen anytime soon.
Even if that 1.1ns ram is abundantly available, they will probably use it with a lower-gen g71 core instead of the less powerful g70 core

This review was made with Catalyst 6.2 Beta and ForceWare 81.98

You could compare with this to see if that Cat 6.1 benchmark is true

um, no, because they're from two different websites, using two different systems, using different benchmarking conditions...

the 7800gtx 512mb was only made to bring the crown to nvidia... so it was limited production... now the g71 is another history

I know that. I just gave you the link so you could see if the performance difference on that certain game or application is as the slide says to be.

Even if that benchmark is using a different CPU, mobo, memory, etc. My point is to compare the two cards and see if in actuality that benchmark you mentioned is true. To see if nVidia's GTX 512mb is ahead of the x1900xt on both the newer and older drivers.

to do that you need same cpu same mobo and same ram to have a exact result...

I don't know what improvements the 6.2s bring. I can't just look at performance and say "yep, they are or were using the newer drivers."
