QUOTE(ben_panced @ Jan 6 2008, 11:24 PM) wrong.. right now you can find 88gt and 88gts selling below their msrp... but if the rumours are correct, the 9800gx2 will only use g92 chips.. which means that it's not next-gen yet and the r680 card will have 2 x rv670 chips.. well, from my point of view, current g80 8800 and 29xt users will not view the r680 and 9800gx2 as a very substantial upgrade.. btw, im skipping g92s, rv670, r680 for the real next gen cards -> r700 and g100  well I've read that R700 have being delayed to 2009 if not mistaken. I guess on the ATI side, we all have to settle to HD3800 X2

They had R600 silicon for almost a year before it was released. And i'm not sure if this R700 is the original R700.

~1st R680 Test~ 驱动直接认成3870×2,不显存显示1024MB 两块RV670核心,频率是770/2250MHz,与公版3870完全一样 中央有一块巨大的桥接芯片负责分配PCIE带宽 整张卡发热并不大,满载运行3DMark06的时候只有60度 Translated Version from Google ::: Driver acceptability directly into 3870 × 2, 1024 MB memory Show 2 RV670 core frequency is 770/2250 MHz, and is exactly the same as the 3870 version Central is a great bridge chip responsible for the allocation of bandwidth PCIE Fever is not the whole card, loaded with time running 3 DMark06 only 60 degrees    Source 1Source 2This post has been edited by raymond8341: Jan 10 2008, 01:24 PM
