Dunno if this has been posted before or if it's 100% true, but some decent speculation. I wouldn't mind holding off upgrading the 7600GT with a 9800GTS too!

Posted in the rumour mill I think.

"over two times faster than 8800GTX in real world games and applications"

OMG :drooling:

Well just "Awwww damn!" :D

"over two times faster than 8800GTX in real world games and applications"

OMG

See, that's why I said I dunno if it was 100% true or not. Could it REALLY be twice as fast?

This is why I skip generations. Looks like a 9800GTS or even a GTX will coincide with my Vista purchase :)

Hahaha! Yeah, that's how it'll go. Actually, the fiancee will say "We need more things for our house! Not a computer part!!!"

[hirantha]

Hahaha! That's kinda true. I go ahead, let her have her way most times so when something really important comes up, I get my way. She was blown away that I made a decision on the wedding this past weekend lol.

[WeReWoLf]

Hmm... Me thinks i'll hold off the Sli until these babies arrive, then sell off my 8800GTX to my flatmate for about $400 so he can Sli lol

Sounds like 10.1 is what 10 should have been. nVidia kept the limitations of the 8 series very quiet didn't they!?! The buggers :o

I don't skip any of the new cards but the jump from 7 to 8 is huge.If the results for the 9 are what they say the will be it will be amazing to see that type of increase. I agree the 9 series will be when I jump to Vista also.

[SwedX]
