I'm actually really tempted to get one, but if I do, I'll be eating cup noodles for the whole of December.

Well I cant even make full use of my 1900xtx.

So I think my xtx will last me just fine before ATI come out with their new chip which is gonna wh000p 8800s ass and bring down the prices quite a bit.

lol if this was any tech forum you'd just be putting more kindle into the flame war. And do realise, ATI is dead. It doesn't exist anymore. It's the AMD R600.

I'm curious as to how well the r600 will perform. The core size is rumored to be much smaller than the g80 and it ONLY has 64 shaders.
