Some people might like all the different clocked versions floating around, but its slightly confusing and makes comparison shopping a bit more difficult than it has to be.

(PS: soon these custom clocks will be like buying clothes... say you need 89fps in FEAR at such and such settings and they will bring out cutom clocked card and try and fit it)

Dude that's only in your contry. Here, 7900GT $399 CAD (fastest XFX) and 7900GTX is $679 (second fastest XFX). That's hardly double, is it?

In addition, you need a SLI mobo (or modded and you still need the bridge) and a PSU which can handle two cards. The 7900GT is probably still a better deal per FPS but not THAT much better.

Well I think it's obvious that a GT @ crazy oc is the best deal.

Im also disapointed cause 7900 dont have AA+HDR and HQ-AF, but i think 7600GT and 7900GT its a god deal , but for the TOP cards i think the X1900XTX its better deal , cause have all the new tecnoligies

approx 3DMark2005 cost ratio
7600GT 6000 $200 30
7900GT 7900 $300 26

consensus is 7600GT only overclocks a bit, so up to 6500.
however, for 7900GT, some only hitting 540 but some 580 (should be about 9000 or even a bit more).. perhaps voltmod needed to hit 650 = 7900GTX speed.

A week ago I was about to order a 7800GT for $300. Now 7900GT for same price, but performance like 7800GTX ($450) or higher. Lower noise, less power/heat too. What a sweet deal.

I guess I'm not going to wait for the 8series after all. Can't wait to recieve the 750/1900 sample.

1-3 days = not in stock

I would imagine that we will see these in stock in the USA by Monday or so of next week. They are lagging the other cards by just a few days.

hence why I said this morning.

Suprised you guys in the US have not got more available

Interesting to see some overclocked results, where r they all @?
OPP was comparing a modded 512 gtx vs a non ocd 7900gtx correct?
that doesnt seem fair to me, if that was the case..

well it is fair in a way as he wanted to highlight what the architecture does for the 7900 and thats not a whole lot at same clockspeeds. but yes of course if you get one, vmod and overclock to hell you will have a fast card. ;)

So "maximum headroom" isn't all that different from 7800 ;) This is definitely not a step up as going from X1800 to X1900 seeing as there were tangible differences there, unlike here.

Perkam

All 7900gtx should be using :

Samsung 604..BJ11 (1.1ns). ;)

Where did you see an 7900 gtx with BJ12's ? :confused:

Ah, I see so GS version is using 1.2ns where as

eVGA 7900 GTX SUPERCLOCKED

Part Number: 512-P2-N575-AX uses BJ-11 (1.1ns).

Unless its just an error on behalf of monarch computers.

The XFX extreme editions do have BJ11's, that I know for sure FCG.
I have two here with hsf already off & verified they are Samsung 604 (BJ11's)

What do you guys think?

BTW I was told the XXX edition is not available yet. So the fastest part now form them is 690. Anyone find the XXX in stock?

Kind of makes me sad. At 750,1.9 on factory air the cards would have ruled.

well some manufacturers have 690 engine clocks + 50 GDC = 740 - not that far off.
They probably had the engine clocks quoted by accident instead of just saying clocks :D
