sigh, I own my computer for a year and it is already near the point of being obsolete. I wish they would just pause for 2-3 years on these improvements.

Ye Gods its expensive. This thing better run crysis, TF2 and bioshock on the highest settings without any glitches or problems.

unfortunatle yahoo.... its wont run Crysis on "Very High" settings, atleast not one, maybe two though :P

oh and uh, $600 from new egg if anyone was curious. and remember, thats not even how much the 8800 Ultra debuted for, i think the 8800 GTX debuted at that price, the Ultra at $699, the GTS 640MB at $450 or so, if i remember correctly, it was about a year ago. Things have changed a lot since, then, they age of a good video card for atleast $600 is over i think. The 9800 GX2 is king of the hill now.
