I thought they only released a new one every other year, meaning the next one would be in 07.
After looking up 3dMark06, it looks like 2 7800GTX 512s in SLI will only manage 11.2 fps average in this benchmark. I wonder if this is a forshadow what's comming in games in the next few years. I also wonder if they will ever reach a limit on how far they can push graphics, software wise that is.
