Cheap DX10 Cards...

[hp7909]

As per title: Any cheap DirectX 10 cards coming soon? Talking about £60~£120. Or will they all be top-range expensive ones?

TIA

They will be faster than the x1950 pro by all accounts too!

Would you also happen to know if (DX9) performance wise, which current card(s) it will be comparable to?

Impressive, will definitely wait/go for one!

& over at the AMD/ATI farm, nothing?

Also, still no DX10 benchies/test out?

Anybody any idea what sort of PSU would be required for these ????

Only got a 400w PSU and didn't want the added expense of a PSU upgrade on top of a VGA card upgrade.

I would expect something around 400-500W similar to the 8800. Details should come through soon!

I guess if doesn't have an extra PCI-E power connector like the 7600GT, then 400W PSU should be fine?
