sorry if this has been posted a lot, but now that quad-cores are hitting the market and the 24 in monitors (either the NEC or the LG) i've wanted are soon hitting the market, the only thing stopping me from building my new comp is this graphics card question. I want something thats built for DX10, so i guess its the R600 from ATI or whatever it was called from nVidia. does anyone have any release dates/pricing info for these things, cause i reallllllyyy cant stand waiting anymore. i want to make this thing as futureproof as possible, which is why i'm not going with any current card..
 
Wow dude. There are TONS of posts on the 8800 series by nVidia... it's 1 day away from the hard launch.

R600 is spring of next year.

No offence, but use the search option next time mkay? I dont really mind, but lots of people are quite... vocal... about answering questions over and over :)
 
haha yeah now i feel like a dumbass. i didnt even look down the rest of the first page of the forums... so yeah thats all i needed to hear, sorry bout that...
 
Wow lol. 99% of the current posts are about the new Nvidia G80 coming out wednesday. lol.

Its ok though. At least your not like "Why buy the g80, dx10 isnt coming out for ____".
 
haha yeah i've been spending most of my time on the display forum anyway cause thats the thing thats going to take longer to be released (and they never seem to get any confirmed dates for them these days...) next time i guess i'll at least open a thread or two here before i post

If that was true, we would definately have already heard about it now.

We knew G80's launch back at the begining of Oct., and nVidia is considered more secretive, if anything than ATI.

Spring for R600 sounds about right.
