Same boat as you. :)

I'm hoping the 1Gb version is about $350 to $375.
Does 1Gb get much of an advantage over 512mb with 1600x1200 res?
How much is this going to cost?
Something that crushes the GTX for $400? Who isn't going to buy that?
So we should see this on newgg the 3rd, right? :D
But doesn't this post read it will be out on the 11th?
Com'on guys, read though the thread before you post.
There might not even be a 512MB or 1GB, Because the revision could be just based of a G80 core and not G92.
Ah, hate the power consumption, throws me off any component. Threw me off R600 too. Around 100W I wouldn't mind.
But the GTX was measured to pull ~150W-170W loaded anyway, so still looking better.
I really hope the G80-rumors are false... :(
We all want G92-8800GTS, don't we?
How exciting, a green PCB with a giant box on top of it that will immediately get thrown away by 99% of the members of this board anyway.
512bit bus is not required for 1GB. All they'd need to do a 1GB card is slap some Qimonda 1024Mbit GDDR3 chips on G92GT's board.
Vóila - 1GB with 256bit bus!
Here in Greece the price will be EQUAL to the price of the 8800gts 320MB . I have seen some price lists . :)
i think the product you talk about is already out now.

And hardwarecanucks already brought us an review..
"Build it & they will come.."
Soooo, is nvidia saving the 8850 brand name for something else?
Enough 8XXX series, lets get some 9XXX series out, with twice the performance...
Its espacially needen now, when X38/X48 cant run SLi...
Can't wait no longer....
maybe the 8850gx2 will be
two x 8800gt's would only make sense
since previously
2 x 7900gt right?
therefore it would be better then a 8800gts, but not better then dual gts's
im not sure if u could combine two 8800gts since, them being dual slot coolers
dec.11 ,not dec.3
I'm hoping they don't do that 'double board' gx2 again and charge up the ass for it. Then again that 3870 x2 coming out would have trouble fitting in a rackmount chasis.
If they are anything over $350, im getting the GT. It would be nice if they released it early :(
I suppose, ill be up all night with my mouse ready to snatch one up :rofl:
for the love of God. Boycott this card and all remaining 8xxx series; can we just skip all this bull:banana::banana::banana::banana: and get to the 9xxx series.
