Well.. I was just stoked by the post 6800GS (old games) and X1600 (new games) which made the impression that the 6800GS was slower..



Then again, agreed with what was told before.. there's really no incentive of producing the NV40 cores anymore. And they have enough PCI-E bridge chips to cover anything the NV41 has leftover..

I would have thought getting a NV40 will be very very difficult now..

Still with 12pp of steroids, which wins hands down on even the X1600XT.. both in Sm3 and SM2.. and also, they're similarly priced AFAIK..
