It's killing me, but good advice. How long was it between the release of the 8800GTX, and the Ultra?

Another example is even the new 8800GT's, 10 different versions get made within a few weeks of it's initial release, and it's always nice to see a shootout article posted first, to help you weed a few 'lesser boards' out.

I would love a 9800 Ultra!!

If nVidia reads this, note that I am available for BETA testing Super Fast, High Level Secret GPU's...

I love that chart in the second link. When I hover the mouse pointer over my current GPU (nVidia 8600GT) it changes to 100% on the graph.
The 9600GT showes as 307% faster, and 2 9600GT's in SLI show as 557% faster...
Hehe.... That's good news!
A 9800GTX will probably blow my hair back some!
Me and my rig need some GPU Techno-Shock Bad!
