    7900 GTX, 7900 GT and 7600 GT THEY'RE OUT!!!

    Scan's already stocking them, XFX has those tasty 7900GT with 1500Mhz mem and 520MHz core thanks to those 90nm stuff..

    But I cant help to think that its rather dissapointing... My upgrade card next month will probably be a trusty X1800XT..

    7600GT is the other one worth discussing, but they're not due till end of March... Psih!
    Me want Ultrabook

    I agree, the 7900 is disapointing in my view.

    Nvidia seriously need to find out how to improve there performance with AA, as they are crap with it on. The X1900 takes a much smaller hit.

    It's basically a die shrink, with higher core clock.

    What memory is used on the GTX?

    Well, lets hope Nvidia cured the cold bug on previous G70s before Nordic takes it for another spin under liquid N2. I have a gut feeling that the G71 might be able to hit 1000MHz core for some reason.... Hopeful.. I know..

    The ones on the spotlight is definitely the 7600GT and 7900GT.. The 7900GT is basically an overclocked 7800GTX with better mem at a cheaper price. If they could get it down to the region of &#163;240ish then we're in serious business.. But at the moment the X1800XT seems like the best snatch.. period.. 90% of X1900XT's power, 2/3 of the price..

    There is more than one place selling the 7900GT for under £240.

    Great site, got my 4400+ from there in like September, and it was way cheaper than anywhere else.
