It is slated to come out in the last quarter of this year, before the holidays. I've been hearing around November-December. It's going to be the most powerful graphic card, with a teraflop of computing performance. The 8800s can only give like 300-500 gigaflops of performance. Not 100% sure on that. And I'm guessing they're going to be really really expensive. But this will drive prices down for the 8800 series to make them more affordable.
