Wow..looks like a great improvment over the 6 series..which was great...nice card

I like everything but the price. I had the impression it'd eat more power and make more noise than a 6800 ultra, but it turns out it uses less power, and only hits about 24db.

And since you get better 64-bit support with new forceware-version, at least you got something out of this launch, clocker.

How thoughtful of them.
They render my card obsolete, but give me better drivers in return.

Oh, the irony.

that is my hope that i can pick up a card that was considered 'top level' a few months back but is now a reasonable(ish) price

my 9600 is beginning to crack under the strain of the latest games

oh and I don't think your card is quite obsolete yet

You can prolly manage solitaire with the detail turned down and no AA

Who knows what ATI has in store

What do you mean?
Everybody knows.
Crossfire is ATI's response to SLI and the two companies will play "My edick is bigger than yours" for the next few months hoping to cash in at Christmastime.
All the big retailers are already finalizing holiday orders...I wonder what they're planning on?
