Just for info.
Its just downclocked XT version, who knows how many they will sell, before normal 256bit version appears, buy fast as you can :)

They are just XT's that didnt make the heavy clock test. They will be killer cards for $250.

ATi is trying to get rid of all R600 PCBs and cores. RV670 will come soon.

That's what I'm thinking. Just might pick two up for CrossFire in my new build, since CrossFire seems to scale better in Vista than SLi does...

Read my other thread I just made for benchmarks http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=99106

I would wait for a RV7xx board so you can later try out tri and quad crossfire.

SLI seems to have gotten much better with Vista in recent drivers. Both seem to scale similarly in most situations now and Dx10 seems to scale better with Sli at the moment.
