[QUOTE="Lilgunney612"]Resolution 1280x1024 when did you become such an ass anyway? in the full version you can choose the res. still very impressive.codezer0And just as quickly someone can post a 3dMark result at 640x480 that shows them having 10 million 3dMark points, too. Your point? 3DMark is a joke. You don't play 3DMark, it just runs through prerendered **** And it's not like both ATi and NV have not been guilty of coding their drivers to artificially bump up the benchmark scores that their hardware gets. The fact that people still have such a throbbing hard-on for some benchmark score that has nothing to do with actual game play just signifies that you need to increase your e-dick to make up for your own personal... shortcomings. And fawning over people like this just lumps you into it as "guilty by association", far as I'm concerned. Why the **** should I care about how a 3DMark @ 1280x1024 or 10x7 is when I game at a much higher resolution? What's the ****ing point when I don't care about gaming @ 12x10, but rather at 16x10 or 19x12? Or even 2560x1600?
HAHAAAA little emotional are we?? mommy can't afford a good card for you?? damn man relax, why even bother posting that crap?
a card still has to use it's "power" to render all the 3dmark tests, show me one card that scores low on 3dmark but is a beast at "real world games"... face it, if a card can put out good numbers in 3dmark it's going to put out the frames in games.
yeah i got 2 asus 3870x2, one's still in the box patiently waiting for the crossfirex drivers. I also ordered 2 EK waterblocks for them. I should be getting them tomorrow.
I also just got my q6600 stable at 3.8, here's a new link

can get it to boot at 4.0 but it's not quite stable yet
this card is really impressive, I was expecting alot of issues with it, but I've had literly 0 problems with all of my games. I even run crysis at 1680x1050 with everything on very high except shaders and shadows, those I had to leave on high

almost 19,000 on a stock 3870x2 (o/c'd q6600 @ 3.7)
card is stock overclocked q6600 @ 3.7 and I scored almost 19,000 on 3dmark!!!!

damn, i hate fanboys... **cough, thinker,**cough... I like both ati and nvidia, whichever cards on top thats what I get. and face it, ati is on top.
get over it thinker.
Did ATI jack up there prices with the 97 or 98pro cause there cards were superior to Nvidia? hell no... Nvidias a sorry a$$ company and it really ticked me off when I saw how much they originally sold the gtx and ultra for. They don't give two $h$#s about the gamer, just money in their pocket.
It wont cost any less than $600 USD msrp.
If it does they might as well throw away the GTX and ultra cards they have lying around.
Either it doesnt come out until they sell off some of the older 8800 sku's or it costs more than $600. One of the two will happen.
rofl...and that link was worthless. Just some dude saying something that everybody else already knows but with absolutely no proof whatsoever.

qft... look at the prices for the ultra, if this thing beats it even by 2% there's no way nvida will release it for under $600. especially with all these new nvidia fanboys. I was around back when the 9700 pro came out and owned everything. ATI held the crown for awhile then the 9800pro nvidia couldn't keep up. I like nvidia don't get me wrong, I own a gtx but I'm going with ati this time. Got me 2 3870x2s.
