7900's eh?

[Lockey]

I've heard alot of people talking about these, I've heard there due out in march, that correct?

Also would it be worth not buying a 7800gtx 512 and just waiting for the 7900's if they are?

I think patience for Nvidias' offering is a good idea -- after all what if it's 20% faster -- bet that will hurt. If it's NOT then even better! War will ensue and we'll get the 7800 GTX for $250

The 512MB GTX = 7800Ultra

I'm assuming will really start seeing surfacing details in about a week or so.

OR....you could be UBER patient and wait 6 months for the next, next gen G80 which features.....DX10 support! Someones getting rich off of our gullability.

If you wait long enough you'll end up never buying anything the way this industry goes! Good luck finding a gtx 512 now anyways. :roll:

Rumor Has It That The 7900s Will Be Revamped 7800GTs And 7800GTXs With A Die Shrink Down To .90nm And Possibly Using GDDR4 With Much Higher GPU/GDDR Speeds, Simply Put, Why Fix Something That Isnt Broken,.... Just Improve It

I would never buy a GTX512 as a single card solution, not after reading the X1900XT results, and with the latter being only $519 at Newegg, vice $750+ for the former....

Depends on your budget, I guess....

Yes, rumor has it the 7900gtx and gt models will both come out, gtx having only a 512MB version. Google GeForce 7900 and you'll find the rumors...all tend to lean towards nvidia releasing them in mid to late March.

Exactly

I've got a 7800GT and I love it but the GTX512 is way overpriced compared to the 1900xt.
