I thought DX10 wasnt out until like May? Or are they targeting by the end of the year?
His score is equal to my Income. Stupid college and their tuition and expensive books.
The 8800s are the only DX10 cards in existence at this point in time. ATI-AMD are busy working on a GPU-CPU hybrid, so theirs isn't out for a while.

So hows this baby play games? I'm guessing all maxed out running at a stupid fps but could you give me some exact figures? Like 2142 if you have it, does the fps stay at 100 (game.lockFps [framerate] should unlock the fps) if on a 64 player server defending an enemy ridden titan? or in an orbital strike?

I just intalled my 8800 GTX and ran 06 just to get a gauge of what to expect.
No overclocking of CPU or GPU quite yet but here is what I got out of the box.
Not bad for a single GPU..

Im glad i didnt wait to buy one.. at 1 1/2" longer than a 1950xtx... theres no way i could put that in my case.. I have about 1/4" clearance as is between my 1950 and my harddrives.. I guess people that have Antec cases either cut their case up or in my case dont use the middle harddrive cage..
Cards are getting too long!

lol i have a 6600 and im getting a 8800 [dam i cant get over it] but shit u had a 7950....
Kmarion, does the 8800GTX fit for a gigabyte 3D aurora case? I'm at school now so I can't search it up plz help lol.
Just wait until you see the R600 scores.
I won't say much more beyond this for fear of me losing my job, but our debug (non-qualification) lab boards perform better by ~15%.

Why do you have to be rich to buy a graphic card? You guys act like he forked up ten grand for this.
I'm getting one myself but haven't yet decided on brand. I think I'll be going for the XFX 8800GTX.

He already has 7950GX2 (pretty damn good) and now he's buying a 8800GTX which just came out... that is why.Tor77 wrote:

@ least the 8800 is smaller.... hmmz that reminds me - anybody know if the current dx9 cards have full DX10 support?
No. That's why they're called DX10 cards, they have new tech to make them uber.-101-InvaderZim wrote:
