Ready to check out the full-G71-sporting, 550/700-clocked, 512MiB-carrying, HDCP-protected, supposedly quiet new NVIDIA assault on the top end of the mid-range? Hold on to your tighty whiteys then, pixel fans, as we do just that.

Nice.. price needs to come down a bit though IMO..
Good performance at the price. Scan has these pegged at £210 for the 512mb version.
I have a Vf900 ****al1ty thing going spare too. Very tempted to buy one, slap that on and clock it.
Scan has those XFX passive ones.. SWEET! might actually jump back to Nvidia..
Passive is tempting, but I love my overclocks too much :P
The article says the image quality arguments between ati and nvidia are well known. I have been living under a rock for the past year or so so don't know about it, does anyone have a link to a good article on the subject. I am worried that if I just google I will end up with an article written by someone who doesnt know what they are talking about.
anything from anandtech, beyond3d, bjorn3D, xbitlabs (ok.. maybe a little biased), hardOCP, bit-tech are pretty ok.. most of them are just referring to the lousy shimmering the early 7 series have (6 series too), most of which have been partially solved tho the shimmering is still there.. and the lack of cutting-edge anistrophic filtering ala ATI's HQ AF..
