Like Flanker said stop fretting. If you want SLID 7800GTXs then get it, it will work on Vista.this puts me in a very tough situation on buying a new video card.... : ( i bet the dx10 cards will cost gahgahs...and i had planned on SLi'n a 7800GT/GTX...what to do! what to do! I don't think i could buy a new card wo/DX10 if its release was within the next 10 months with the 7900. that would be a waste of $$$. I heard an absurd rumor that MS was ****ed off at Nvidia for being like ultrakicka$$ so they might cut them off from DX10? anyone know anything about this rubbish?
Indeed i am. Not only would i be upgrading my Main rig but you forgot i have 2 rigs. I would be updating my LAN rig considerately for way better performance at LANs which i attend every month. Yes there are things set in stone, one guy already has one lol. 16pipe card w/ clocks not much higher than a 6800ultra. On watercooling (which my LAN rig will have VERY soon) my 6800GT(ultra) will be able to reach those speeds im hoping so ill have what? The equivalent to a 7800GS in each machine. Win win situation id say.P.P. Mguire you really are going to ditch a 6800gt for a 7800gs? I mean the 7800gs will definitly be better but it seems somewhat pointless for the cash/performace gain ratio. Well nothing is set in stone yet about the 7800gs I dont think, but how much better can it be then the 6800gt, if the rumors are true and its a 16 pipeline card. I'm sticking with my 6800gs, which is substantially crappier then the gt.
Tyler tests Vista and gets information from Microsoft. Im sure hes trustworthy.I was mainly directing it at karpfish24, but there has been a lot of sourceless speculation on unreleased hardware and directx recently on the forums. I'm not saying you're wrong, but there are a lot of people that are .
Not to be rude but are you blind? Ive posted already that Avalon hardware will be G80 and R580(?) chips along w/ it will come out Q2 of 2007 and it will only come in the premium edition of Vista. Which means the buku exspensive one.Is there anything confirmed about DX10 or DX10 hardware?
