I, like several others, was quick to look askance at him buying an 8800 Ultra.
In the AnandTech review of DX10 performance, though, there was one constant among all the back and forth over which was the better performance-range card, the 2900XT or the 8800GTS, or which sucked the least, the 2600XT or the 8600GTS.
And that constant was that the ONLY card that delivered consistent playable performance in DX10 was the much-maligned 8800 Ultra. Now that it's dropped from $850 to $600, it just may be the "gotta have DX10" gamer's choice.
