Didn't the president of Nvidia said that if the 6800 U is not 2-3 times faster than the "current" generation he would be disappointed?!?!?!?!?!



:eek:


and it is certainly not!!

Yet.

IF:
420 is faster
and
Doesn't need a 480w psu
and
only needs a Single molex

It will make the Nv40 a waste of time.

One can only hope. Either the Nv40 or the 420 is getting my .5 Grand. I can only hope that the 420 is going to give me more for my money. If it doesn't I guess I'll have to settle for the ol' Nv40.
:D

yeah the farcry/nvidia thing is quite a blow.. but 20 games??
 
well also take into account that Nvidia was hoping for much higher clocks at that time, heck, the first samples were sent out to game devs and were clocked at 475 core, if this card had those clocks I think that the results would be more in line with his hopes.
 
will it be clocked higher??

when is it "really" coming out again

the ati420's review is coming out on the 18th rights??

or..
 
Plus it's only the X800 Pro thats coming out on the 26th. Which, of course, is going to get destroyed by the 6800 pro, and should compete somewhat with the 6800 np.

The X800 XT wont be out until the end of may, which by the looks of things, is about 1.5 months too late, since even it will have a tough time catching up to the 6800 pro.
 
oh yeah that is right the ati x a lowered clocked one is coming out the 26...

so ati and play more with the xt's design and clockrate... if pro loses.....
