At that price is not the flagship as i said before, i paid £410 for a 6800U and that price in $US aint enough so i still say there will be a Ultra later after ATI release their cards.

Added to this i have refused a card from Nvidia/Chaintech as of my legal battle with broken PvP, i wont accept a card with a value less than the above £410, this card retails around $600 US, so that nowhere near £410 UK sterling.

Do you think so, the $600 is the price you pay in the store so was my £410 (inc VAT), i dont need told about my countries V.A.T, a card at £330 is not gonna be for me as i paid £410 and got screwed with a fooked PvP (which i actually use its not just about games for me).

The actual price to buy that card is $649 US.

I will wait on a Ultra which i know will appear (in some form /name) and will have faster clocks and prob 256MB and 512MB ram version but i got no clue if its still 24pipes or 32pipes.

Nvidia/Chaintech aint came back to denie me that there is gonna be higher spec card, i think history esp 6800U launch and some common sence tells you this.
 
I am a little confused on this Ultra thing(G70)What well that be a faster processor and memory? As I understand it the G70 chip is 24 pipes Hard.
 
The resolution chart seems wrong. 2048x1536 @ 60hz max in 32bit? That can't be right. I see 2d analog signals being ignored like back in the Geforce2/3 days with these dual dvi cards from Nvidia vendors.
 
At a guess it may be same as current GT and Ultra with both having the same number pipes but more mhz on core and ram and may need dual slot cooling (im hoping it exhausts outside case).

Added to same as now with 256MB and 512MB Ultras, but i couldnt even guess if its gonna have more pipes, ie 32pipes, i dont know if the 7800 has 32pipes with only 24 enabled or really has only 24pipes, as im not really interested in it and thats reason i have been quiet throughout all the arguing here for last few weeks, i will know when i see it infront of me when i get offered a card to replace mines at same value (if more i will add cash but should get it as i was screwed in 1st place).
 
I really think the G70 is something Nvidia just threw together. I think there working on something a lot faster. Maybe something with cell and PPU

As it stands right now I wouldn't by either card . I don't know whats coming from nvidia next . I have a good Idea what ATI'S next card well be 32 pipes Faster clock and these are real maybe's Rambus XDR and on board ppu I well wait .

Aren't you supposed to be under NDA? XDR and PPU on board? Sounds to me like you're full of it.
 
LOL, i doubt the Ultra or such will be so exotic, it will possibly be faster core/ram with dual slots and 256MB and 512MB versions and 24pipes or at very very most 32pipes.

I dont see cells and other future tech for a good while, i need to get this new card from them in AGP format btw not PCI-E.

You are full of crap. Really those stats are fantasy graphics cards. The R520 is not going to have all that stuff, even though i dont know ill still garauntee it.

Ati and Nvidia are always working on something faster. They are both playing the market right now. Make the most of what they can provide now - save the ace in the hole. If you want to hold off, then you'll be waiting a year.
 
I think he means he aint gonna buy a G70 (any version) or a R520 and skip till next gen as it will have specs he mentioned.

I really really seriously doubt it will be anytime in 2006 or next gen you see his specs lol.
