it's probably a typo, not all gddr3 can do those speeds

I mean the GDDR3 part, I think it's GDDR4.

Looks like it can come in both GDDR3 and GDDR4

[theteamaqua]

umm i hope its like $199 or $249 USD. dunno what to get 8800GTS or X1950XT CF.,..

G80...hands down, no questions asked.

The x1950xt comes with 256mb. Games now are starting to limit 256mb cards to lower settings like doom 3, quake 4, and graw(which won't even let you go above 1280x1024 with only 256mb). Even in CF, you're limited to 256mb, as it doesn't work as 256+256, but rather it's still just 256mb.

[Revv23]

GDDR3 can do 900mhz easily, its the x1900 mem controller that makes it hard, with less stress on the controller from having less memory, i wouldnt be surprised about this at all.

If you look at the 1900xt threads the 256mb one does really well with memory clocking.

You could probably get 512MB X1900XT CF for the same price as the GTS when it launches.

I can't disagree with Diltech on the recommendation....unless you're waiting for G81...in which case G80 is a bad idea.

If you are budget restricted such that you don't upgrade every 6 months, then G80 shouldn't even be a consideration.

P.S. X1950Pro Crossfire will pwn all after drivers are improved.

oh thanx to be honest my GeForce 7800GTX SLI on 8x board with hacked driver is running DX9 games pretty well at 1280x1024 . i might get 1950 and wait for good DX10 cards so i can play Crysis and Alanwake....

Make your own decisio though...some of the pictures i've seen of the G80 beast make me want to buy it right now lol

But I'm not a fan of GPUs with IHS.

I have to ask why you feel this way on the subject. If anything, if you don't upgrade often, G80 would currently be the only option for now.

The only thing that'll change majorly over the next year(possibly another year and a half), will be power consumption. Didn't both NVidia and ATi say that this round was all about pure performance, next round will be all about dropping that power consumption and slight speed bumps?

Basically, it's sounding like the next few cards(read, maybe 1 new card from both camps by this time next year after G80/R600) will be small clock-speed increases and a die-shrink with slightly better memory. I wouldn't expect the shader amounts to raise, I wouldn't expect faster memory busses, just higher clocks and better overclocks... Think 9800pro-9800xt increases...

Sure, waiting may be an option, but waiting is not the only option.

No it can't

I'm waiting for that time - if is to expensive, I'll skip that and wait for Multi CPU + Multi GPU platforms the rest is not important for me, looks nice but now value in that

For sure i meant GDDR4 no way DDR4
