I did a long time ago lol... Im just amazed at the progress of graphics cards latelyQuote:

those benchs were done with a stock venice 3000+ so thats pure vga power think of it with a 3000mhz opty :)
pretty nice for a budget card
I think it won`t be much difference. This card isn`t CPU bottleneckQuote:

So I see the X1600's true competitor is here. At $125, its considerably cheaper though, interesting.

I think this one is bandwidth limited too perkam.
If it is only $125, that'd make this the king of budget though...
Considering the 7800GTX will drop in price, the 7800GT will drop in price, it makes sense that this card will be below $200, as the $200 price point will probably belong to the 7800GT.
Dang! That's better than my former C3D X800GTO @ 16p 600/500!
I think yr card will outperform this one in gaming with AA/AF ;)Quote:

isnt 1.4ns ram rated todo 700mhz so 1400?
so why does it run 500 when its rated todo 700 or am i mistaken with the speed its rated for.
btw a x1600xt running at 590/690 costs about 160-170euro overhere.
wich more or less gets the same 3dmark05 score as this 7600GT does if im not mistaken so nvidia would b stupid to put the 7600Gts price above the X1600xt.
Really though, this is just a die-shrunk 6800GS with a bit more ALU power.
Still makes good OCing though
IMO that won't happen until entry-level moves up to 8 pixel-pipelines.Quote:

I don't think G73 will ever need a power connector on PCI-Express at least, it's only GPU based on high end cores that do typically.Quote:

7600GT Thread Merged with This One.

More idiotic news by inq: http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=29800
Good specs except:
- 7600 won't be $249
- 6800GS isn't $249 now
Perkam
So it should be 256bit no? Then I have a feeling the x1800gto will be fasterQuote:
