...especially since it's 256bit memory and not 128bit as the GT and 2x the memory size. why do they even make them with 128bit?

if they come out in march, i'm sure eVGA will do some uber-fast, KO edition jobber by may, and jazzy will have himself a new b-day present ^^

Yeah, that's ridiculous. I guess they want to really entice you to move up to the Ultra. But yeah, a 512MB, 256-bit card for $180, that's great stuff! And that's the suggested retail price too. It will can probably be had for $175 or less online after a week or two.

Birthday's in March, eh? I'm on the 8th, what day are you?

If the information is solid, I will most definitely be getting the Ultra. That should bring the price of my upcoming build down below the $1500 mark...man am I excited.

Bear in mind that these specifications may not be confirmed. In fact, I read something about ALL 8600 cards being 128-bit and the spec table was bogus.

if that was true, I wouldn't even consider getting any of them...when 320bit is available. I wonder if there will be an 8800GT available in the future. same as the GTX but less memory and clock speed for much less of a price... that would be the best choice

B-day is may 6th
i meant by the time my birthday comes around eVGA should have done something exciting with the line, like they always do, and my 7900gt will be a year old. I also have a special purpose in mind for it, so it won't go unused, and i wont feel bad about getting a new card =P
also i am praying someone will have patched DX10 to xp pro, cause im not a vista fan

i figure it won't be long till some underground goofy linux coder wins a bet on whether or not he can do it...
