Fastest video card

Impressive. Crazy that water only gets you an extra 50 Mhz though; shows how good that Quadro cooling is.
Water only gets you a certified 50MHz.
They probably don't want to keep pushing because they need to make sure the cards will reliably be that speed, and don't want to ship too many replacements.

Includes everything, but still, I could buy a GTX and sweet water setup for my whole PC with that money.
jus about to post this......1076 is insane! yyou could jus buy a normal gtx 512 and custom watercool it for cheaper

But then you can just blame it on the CPU. Even if it's a FX-57.

Even a dual opteron at FX 57 speed?

Some people will blame even a dual x2 4800 at FX-57 speeds, but that's just nonsence.
I think this is a good thing for people who have never watercooled before (and have a ton of free $$$ to spend). I'm kind of interested in watercooling myself but putting in the research and trying to find all the right parts is a bit difficult. I might buy the aftermarket kit from eVGA (if they offer one) for my 7800GTX512 one day because I have no idea where to begin with watercooling.

Ok, so if the game is not CPU limited, but only GPU limited, why then your comment?

The original comment was a joke. Hence the smiley...

Ive read at vr-zone that the X1800XT PE is going to clocked at 700/1600. So I am not sure which card will be the fastest within the next week. I wonder if Nv releases their "ultra" the week after next week..

The X1800XT-PE will be 12% faster on the GPU & 6% faster on then memory. It needs to make up more than 12% to beat the 7800 GTX512. I doubt it will be faster. Based on availability, price, etc. it may be a better buy than the 7800 GTX512, but only time will tell.

They still have to work on the drivers for optimal performance of the x1800xt, so it might see a bigger performance boost than just from the speed bump.

Considering how hard to clock a complex 24 pipe GPU can be , plus its based on 110nm and not using lowk, im quite astonished at clock speeds of 600mhz.
