lol

So, should I wait? Or go for a GeForce 8800GTX Superclocked 768MB?

And when 8950GX2 is officially released, another more kaw graphic card will be announced again -.-

So are we going to wait again?

Hmm Its not like we have a truckload of DX10 games waiting to play, so I don't see the urgency in getting a dx10 card now, especially if your current card plays your games well. (early adopters / itchy fingers like me not included). Might want to start preparing your rig for the new cards (get bigger PSU, roomier casing, better lcd) instead, then couple of months later when the new card comes you can just buy it straight and enjoy the eye candy. I am Awake - Alan Wake ... *sigh*

power requirement must be very high.
i wonder when will manufacturer start producing gc with external power like the old vodoo3.
if not PSU may reach 2000W in the future.

Well Crysis is said to gonna utilize dual-core cpus. So, when more games like that follow suite, it wont be a wonder if Octa-Core(8 cores) processors r gonna be released soon haha.

There is already 8 core processor but it's UltraSPARC.

Anyway, I'm hoping for nVidia or ATi to release mid-range cards.
And, are there any issues with DX10? Bugs or something?
