Re: Droool...
The true test will be with Doom 3.
Neat how it clobbers the dickens out of the 6800 in Halo.
One WTF though! What the hell is NVidia doing? Why is the 6800 twice as long and twice as thick?
Really I was stunned at the pict with the X800 on top of the 6800.

Re: Droool...
Well, it has one Achilles' heel. Price. Although its price is phenomenal when stacked up against the Nvidia 6800s, it still is $500. I got a Radeon 9600 XT 128 MB as a $50 option on my Powermac G5. I hope that we don't leave affordability behind.

Most moderators here are little more than insensitive pricks who ban people that disagree with their opinions. In fact, this message will most likely be deleted shortly, and I will be banned by a moderator who can't stand being argued with by a mere forum member.

Re: Droool...
Definitely going to save my money for that... I don't care if the nvidia is better.
ATi's have the control panel which makes them better to me...

Re: Droool...
This is good news for those with less money. The prices for the other Radeon graphics cards have gone down. Very nice.
