X1800GTO2....when?

[BuckWild024]

This card sounds awesome, with a supposed 512MB of memory and 16pp. Does anyone have any info?

 

[akshayt]

can it even use 512mb ?

 

[Powermoloch]

sounds like a rebadge x1800xt

Its out now,

http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?...2&vpn=21069-04-20&manufacture=SAPPHIRE
Thats in $CDN

No reviews yet, just a 1800xt out of the box from what i've read in some previews. An actual 1800xt is cheaper if your from the US, and about the same in canada. Hopefully a big price drop after a couple of weeks. 250 would be awsome for a 1800xt

 

[Nextman916]

is it still 16 pipelines? or did they reduce it to 12?

Edit: Sorry just fully read OP's post.

Hehe. Thought the same thing.

 

[akshayt]

will it perform equivalent to the 7900GT/X1800XT, if not then there is little point of a512mb

i think it can be easily flashed with an x1800 xt bios since it has 512mb ram as well.
It'll be a good buy.

why flash the bios at all. just set the clocks and adjust the voltage. its bette cuz you can choose whether you need OC or not.
