Gibbo,

If you have ANY influence with ATI, then please PLEASE tell them to get their act together in regards to the matrox triplehead2go

If they do, then I'll be first in line for two and a new motherboard

Like the x1900's were before the x1950 release bs, then they went and bought the x1900's back

LOL.

How long do you think he would keep his job if he talked the cards down? It's kinda... well.... his *job* to sell them!

Yup, Gibbo has spoken, so we all know its only going to be 1x frame faster than an x1950.

wrt the specs -- flippin Nora 140gb/sec @ 1024bit, 1gig or 2 gig soon you wont need to bother with the rest of the pc.

Less than 2 months to go now mate, shouldn't you start posting about how it's pointless buying anything apart from the R600 etc. in anticipation of the "R600 CREW!11!!" that will form soon?

LoadsaMoney · 5 Dec 2006 at 21:18

Nah that would make me a fanboy.

Sounds like the next 9700pro definatly....

It definatly honours Vistas Launch too, now only issue is what decent games are coming in Jan/Feb ?

Hi there
ATI's aim is an XBOX 360 with enhancements on a graphics card.

So it'll only be around £280 then with a free hard disc, controller and DVD drive thrown in...?

Robert · 6 Dec 2006 at 00:09

Let's face it, take what Gibbo says with a pinch of salt. I personally think the R600 will be good, but we'll see.

Wonder what the launch price of the new ATI GPU will be, have we ever had a card costing £1000 during its first few weeks yet? :eek:

That won't stop some... all it needs is *DX10 SUPPORTZORZ* and *NEWEST GEN!!!eleven!!1* and people will spend well upwards of £1k on it.

Hi there

Only apart from that we will be launch partner as we always are for ATI/NVIDIA graphics. OcUK is always and first and always gets the best allocation. It shall be no different on R600.

Can't really say anything due to NDA's.

Overclockers for the win!
