It's a remarquable DX9 performer but what if it were totally inadequate for DX10 games? I'd wait for the ATI R600 to come out and then for the DX10 benchmarks. |

The GPU alone can run circles around the chopped down NV71/3 based PS3 and Cell. |

This would have been a valid analogy, except the PS3 will be neither
affordable nor widely available. :-P -- "War is the continuation of politics by other means. It can therefore be said that politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed."

The GPU alone can run circles around the chopped down NV71/3 based PS3 and Cell. both deimos' and 'the dog from that film you saw' arguements are wrong. the 8800GTX will cost over $600 and the somewhat less powerful 8800GTS will cost around $500. here's why your arguements are bad though -- the PS1 in 1994/1995 and the PS2 in 2000 ran circles around the most powerful/expensive PC cards of their times in pure performance (polygons, pixels, bandwidth). but this time, with PS3, it's behind the fastest LAST-gen PC GPUs ( 7800, 7900 series, and ATI X1800, X1900 series) not to mention being massively outclassed by the G80 and upcoming R600. |
