or a heavily OCed G92 8800GTS for $300 (I've seen some at $250 from Galaxy) and if you're playing at non-ultra high resolutions.

Go look at the 3DMark06 thread and the Crysis benchmark thread, mgcook's OC'd Ultra and my OC'd GTS are almost neck-and-neck and we pretty much have identical specs.

^ that still doesnt do me any good since i already have an ultra, and i'm not happy with it. So an equal card is useless.

by they I meant nvidia as i'd much rather not deal with ati. I'm not sayign anythings wrong with them, the 3870 is as great card. just personal preference. and if it's a x2 card we're gonna talk about I may as well wait for the gx2.

i was just under the impression the gx2 was some half***ed last ditch effort at making money and the gtx was gonna be better. that's what i get for being Optimistic huh? XD

if u look at the picture it says g92 8800gts 512mb so it is the 8800gts g92, this is a fake article.

Caught that too. They circle what they want you to see, hoping you won't even bother to decipher the chinese. But, it says 8800GTS, BS.

i think that nvidia won't be goin' for a large performance increase, rather they'll be goin' for a larger price drop. cause they showed with the 9600gt that they are goin' for value, they increase the performance a little and lower the price, so they'll probably keep this with the rest of the series. so even if it's only a little bit more performance, if the price is less i'm happy, since i don't have a lot of money to though on upgrades.

could be an engineering sample, I remember there were some Phenoms that read up as Opterons...

This is what im thinking...gpu-z may be reading it wrong.

[aspire.comptech]

would make sense seeing as it supposedly shares the same core as well as the fact that gpu-z needs to be updated for support for newer gfx cards
