More than likely summer will bring another round of incrementally better
GPU's at prices that inspire no-one to rush out and upgrade. I doubt the
flagship G100 512bit Shader 5.0 card will be out in Q3. And when it does, I
expect it'll cost more than the 8800 Ultra when introduced.



GT200 won't be a Shader 5.0 card, it's still DX10.1 Shader 4.0 (or
4.1, i forget)

It'll be the first significant upgrade of the G80 / GF 8800 since fall
2006. Every card Nvidia has released since has been a minor tweak.

GT200 should be to G80 / GF8800 what G70/GF 7800 was to NV40/GF 6800.
