Too bad its speculation. I was hoping for some "my nephew's neighbor at Nvidia tol' me... "

not like those are that reliable either, but speculation is just that.
 
OMG! Shader 3.0? We bearly are using 2.0 and 2.1 and now they are supporting 3.0? There are like what? 4 games maybe that use the new shader 2.0-2.1 and already we are going to need a new card for 3.0 this May?!?!cuz i don't think my 9800pro supports 3.0! :(
 
its just like dx9

No one uses it yet :D

but everyone says ati pwns nvidia.. cuz nvidia sucks at dx9
 
I'm too nervous to buy ati product right now unless this next gen part gets serious kudos across sthe board. Otherwise I'm going with ATI's next gen part...waiting for that info with bated breath.
 
next generation cards always start at $499 or higher then comes the price drops of the 9800xt
 
I'm in there man, I feel you, soon as the 9800 XT is in my $20 dollar budget IT'S MINE!!!
