OH yea, ok, I am going right out and spending 800 bucks on a video card that there is no software for yet

Do you remember the site? That is so funny.

When I clicked on it, it just went to a site of their current offerings and no 8800GTX. Froogle it yourself dude... You lazy bum...

Hey look, no water cooling. :wacko:
Anyway, let's wait for second batch that should be even better. You know how new products are always crappier than their rev2 counterpart.

Edit: Also, good job at sucking the power out of most PSU's (2 6pin power connector). Just like the first GeForce 6 series though, which required 2 Molex to run. :P

At least it is coming out earlier! That means, Rev. 2 also come earlier.

BTW, What was the first 6 series called? I'd like to see a picture of it.
