Gotta love google translations.

Doubt it. Sources have stated a $160 release price so we can probably expect about £90.

Try £160!

Try £160!

impossible since that would mean its more expensive than a 8800gt.

So is 9800 and 9900 cards on their way to?

 

[Steeps]

how does this compare to my 9600xt? (which is 4 years old )

hmm I don't see how 64 stream processors are able to get those scores

because NVIDIAs stream processors run at double or more clock than there ATI counterparts, hence why my 8800GTS for example (2Ghz shaders) will oust a 3870s 320 stream processors running at 800Mhz by a fair margin, as far as im aware ATI and NVIDIA streams operate in the exact same way, only ATI have them clocked at core speed and NVIDIA have theres clocked asynchronous to the rest of the GPU core

I'm fully aware of nvidia vs ati in terms of shader clock approach...but this is scoring better than the 96sp 8800GTS which doesn't really make sense.

Correct me if im wrong but i read somewhere that these cards where only directx 10 only and not directx 10.1 (as ATI cards are now 10.1)

if your refering to benchmarks such as 3D mark, they've always loved ATI cards for some reason, like 3870 score almost same score as 8800GTS (G92) but in real world gaming the NVIDIA card wins more or less every single time, synthetic benchmarks don't give accurate reading of performance IMO

I was comparing it to the 96 SP 8800GTS
