The 7800GTX 512MB doesn't destroy ATI. Stop trying to start a freakin' Fanboy flame war dude. NVIDIA"s got the crown today... But, how long do you think it will last?

Look at all the benchmarks closer. The 7800GTX 512MB might score a fair amount higher in some benchmarks like 1024X768 no AA & no FF. But, what gamer in his right mind is going to pay $750.00 for a videocard and run it at those settings? NONE! Look at the 1024X768 4xAA & 8XAF they are virtually the same. Then look at both the 1600X1200 no AA & no AF vs. 1600X1200 4xAA & 8XAF. They are within a few hundred points. That's hardly destroying.

Plus, do you think ATI is blowing it's load on the X1800XT 512MB? lol - I don't think so. Watch the X1800XT appear with the platnium edition with like 700 - 800Mhz cores & 1800-1900Mhz memory.
Then those same benchmarks will favor ATI. A few weeks or months later... NVIDIA will hold the crown again...

It will go like this forever.

ATI - X1800XT 512MB = average - $600 USD
NVIDIA - 7800GTX 512MB = average - $749 USD

right now. whats the better buy? Destroyed? I don't think so.

Ah, who cares, most of you kids could never afford either one anyway. (Yeah that's right. I said that.)

everything HAVOC2k5 has said is very correct....this battle for the "best" video card will never end....

Yeah, uh I can agree with the information in that post, except for your first sentence. I'm not an nvida fanboy, I'm not any fanboy, I was just excited in the moment and how good the card was in 3dmark 05, so get off my case. And I don't care who the crown ever goes to because I will never be able to afford these cards anyways.

lol - hence my very last sentence in that post.

You may-not be a fanboy, but that certainly was a fanboy statement:

DESTROYS ATI
"link"

monarch has the 512MB GTX's for under $700

and also keep in mind, that these prices are only the initial prices. they could go down as more vendors get the cards out.

Didn't read up to that. I'll edit my first post
