haha, x2800.. it sounds so whimpy compared to the 8800 GTX. anyway, all im saying is it SOUNDS whimpy..

a delayed gift for you would be an 8800XT[/b]

sorry man. had to do it. [b]

damn, looks like my attempt to make the XT bold
were shot down

March 9th is my birthday. What a birthday present, huh? 8O Good thought prozac!:mrgreen:
Wow, but getting your drivers license and all don't you two think you'll be out exploring the roads not in playing games.

The 7900 is from nVidia, not ATI

Ah the good 'ol XTs. Almost as good as their FX series.

Screw off! You deserve a 8800XT.

I though this topic was dead.

Just like the XTs...

the Xts won't be dead if this is true.

I thought you were talking about ATI's XT. Sorry.

I think my FX7900GTX owns your ATI in any scenario. Its also DX18 compatible, so watch out!

I have a 5600XT

*Buries head in shame*

Your right. The names of videocards can be very confusing especially if you don't know much about them, like cell phone names.
Peet

I've thought about that too - If nVidia keeps the same names, the next generation will be the 9800s. That sounds a lot like the Radeon 9800s. They've gotta think of something new....soon.

i alwasys like to get prozacs blood bioling with the xt remarks

the only one who could sneak up on me is g.w. as he lives
not to far from me.

i will probably go with him to a lan party next month in okc.
never been to one of those.

west side eehh you in the b.c. area?
i would love to dive and m.t.b. there here it is awsome.

just wondering, whats going on?
a personal fight or what? o_O

That's a paddlin' !!

If NV do call them 9800s, I can forsee a lot of people selling their old Radeons for more than they are worth...

We like to hate one another here and there.

Actually 2 things to consider, the next card will be 65nm and it will likely have a slightly more mature implementation (for chip layout) of the stream processors according to early rumours.

This translates into smaller chips, and larger yields (baring ridiculous overclocks) and that should translate into lower costs per card for the end user. Of course at that level it's also about more than cost as many of these things sell at a loss and it's all about marketing.

Guess we'll have to wait and see, but I think nVidia will have their Stupid-Fast, AMD-ATi will have their InsAne-Fast and then we'll still just have the Bitchin'-Fast!

I'll take it!
That one requires 74amps/1.7kw output and a buzooka blown ATX case, right? Though, will my CPU be able to keep up with it...

sorry if i am off topic

Does anyone know if a 8800 GTX can fit in an Armor JR. case?

thanks
