$599 MSRP, any takers?

 

[Tab]

This is different than the others by how much?

 

[Paktu]

This is different because anyone can order it at MSRP, no sitting on waiting lists or getting gouged on ebay.

Wowee 600 bones.. Wonder how much the new 512mb cards are gonna be ? For my budget, think I will keep my 6800GT and wait for the next gen cores.

Same here. I doubt you'd notice more than a 10% increase in performance anyway. (Especially given that my 6800GT can do regular Ultras speeds without breaking a sweat...)

I too am waiting for the next-gen video cards. 🙂

This is for people who want to spend a lot of money, like for the SLI market....

I wonder how this stacks against the X850XT PE.

 

[fstime]

probably equal performance, this is just an oced ultra though.

i thought they canned the Ultra Extreme Core

Except for the fact that it's AGP...

lol...thats a waste of money...just get a regular Ultra or even a GT and you can get it like that with less money 😉

I've heard of these things OCing to like 525/1300 on air. If money is no object, an overclocked UEE is probably the fastest single card out there, seeing as how ATI's X850 XTended Penis Edition doesn't seem to OC well.

I got the EVGA 6800 Ultra Extreme Edition is the AGP version...Pretty nice peice of hardware🙂...The Ultra Extreme Editions come with a overnight warranty if the card should fail or die..Pretty badass if you ask me.

Do these come with the copper heatsink or the std aluminum one?

Agreed- these are way cool cards, as good as it gets for AGP.

I'm pretty satisfied with my 6800GTs now. My bank account is pretty satisfied I'm not buying two UEs. 😉

Have you seen Gainward's SLI water-cooled 6800ultras w/ 512MBx2?
I had a link, but lost it...
