Taking bets on newegg's time of listing, $5 per ticket, pot is 70% of sales!!! (Hey, I have to rip you off somehow with "administrative" costs!)
:lol:
Joking... seriously, anyone have any guesses :)?

Looks like the memory capacity may be crippling it there on the Crysis AA/AF bench:(... hadn't seen that review yet.
This card is having the same impact as 7900 GT had when it was launched last year,7900GT > X1900XT.

Temperatures were recorded after two runs of 3D Mark 06. For the overclockers, it'll be good if you can go for an alternate cooling solution.
A piece of good news for the enthusiast, the 8800GT comes with similar mounting holes as the the 7900GT/GTX as illustrated below!!! Enthusiast can recycle their Zalman VF700/900 and other similar coolers with their new 8800GT! woohoo!

Yes, it is true.
Just look at the performance gain with only shader OC in 3D mark
Please show me a benchmark that shows that, that isn't from Imagination Land...Quote:

are there heatpipes in that stock cooler? either way, the zalman ones dont look like a huge improvement
while the 1900xt was better than 7900gt the 1800xt was not. trust me i have both a 1800xt and 7900gt and the 7900gt is faster.Quote:

while the IQ is a LITTLE better when you oc both the 7900gt destroys the 1800xt.Quote:

Nope on both counts, but I'm ordering a pair of these for my pair of 8800GT 512's: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...rmaltake%2bnd1 and they WILL be a good improvement ;).Quote:
