Hi, I was wondering if the 8800 Ultra's have the new Purevideo HD decoder or the old 8800 GTX/GTS and 7 Series' Purevideo decoder.
I know the 8600's (and the 8500's) have the new Prevideo HD decoder, and since the Ultra came out after them, I think it does, i just can't find any definite information on nVidia's site.

Also, are they going to release one with 1.5GB of memory like the Quadro FX 5600?

Thanks!
 
The specs sheets I could find for all the 8800 Ultra say Purevideo HD so I'm going to say yes.

8800 Ultra comes with PurevideoHD but I dont think that is what the OP is asking.

If the OP meant the Purevideo2/AES128 engine that comes with 8600/8500 series, the answer is no, the 8800 Ultra does not have that.

Yeah, I meant that Purevideo2/AES128 engine.

So more or less the 8800 Ultra is an overclocked GTX with a new cooler and the best chips from the G80 die for better overclockability?

Bummer.
