Yes, they're both DX10.

Some informations about ATIs R600 (build in 80nm):

# 64 Shader pipelines (Vec4+Scalar)
# 32 TMU's
# 32 ROPs
# 128 Shader Operationen pro Zyklus
# 800 MHz Chip Takt
# 104,2 Milliarden Shaderoperationen pro Sekunde
# 512 GFLOPs for the shaders
# 2 Milliarden triangles/sec
# 25,6 Gpixels/Gtexels/sec
# 256-bit 512MB 1.8GHz GDDR4 Memory
# 57,6 GB (theoretische) Bandbreite (bei 1.8GHz Ramtakt)
# WGF2.0 Unified Shader

I'm not sure if they're true.

DX10 is going to bring some really nice graphics and performance to PC. With a Low End DX10 card and the new Shader Model 4.0 you can deliver at least the same graphics as with a High End DX9 card and Shader Model 3.0

What I want to know is can the N80 cards do AA and HDR at the same time? That was the biggest flaw for the N70 cards.

I only did a small search and found the ATI details.

They're probably released in Q4/2006 or the beginning of 2007.

How did you decide which chip is better? ^^

The R580 chip is in the xBox 360 and those graphics are STUNNING. nVidia couldn't come up with graphics like that until they saw what ATI had done - and it was already implemented in the 360.

The R600 will have even better graphics, so.. Just compare it to the 360 basically.

I still think the dual core GPU idea from Nvidia sounds pretty good...

i do a quote from an other forum:

other cards (not by nvidia) that had 2 GPU's, where actualy on that card.

but that nvidia looks like a tosti.

i have no idea how the G80 will be.  But im sure both cards will be DX10
Heres a wikipedia article

I will be getting whatever shapes up to be the best video card as soon as I build a new computer for Vista next year. Keep in mind that the wikipedia articles on these two cards are stocked with rumors, with some taken from questionable (as in speculative) hardware news articles.
