I'm personally waiting for these companies to start focusing on increasing efficiency. Make these super fast GPUs, but make them a REASONABLE SIZE again. Seriously, this is getting ridiculous. I mean, in my current case (which is huge, btw) I can fit 2 8800's or 2 of these and a sound card and that's it. What the hell, dude.

I'm glad to finally see the R600 based GPU card in existence. Now to wait for an 8800 price drop. 8^D]]>Apr 13th 2007 2:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/Apr 13th 2007 4:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/Apr 13th 2007 2:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/Apr 13th 2007 2:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/Apr 13th 2007 2:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/

Check Nvidia's pages for the QuadroPlex.]]>Apr 15th 2007 5:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/

Not true! Alot of people still use 6800GTs', and can still run newer games! GPUs usually take about 2 years until something completely new comes out, like an updated shader version. Also, you must know absolutly nothing about GPUs to think that you can buy them at walmart. I've never seen anything better than an FX 5500 at walmart, which if i can remember correctly is VERY OLD! and very overpriced!]]>Apr 13th 2007 5:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/
Given that I have had two ATI cards actually CATCH FIRE in the case in two different systems, and have a friend that had the same happen to him once, it won't be to one of these when I decide to go that route.]]>Apr 13th 2007 5:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/AMD*ATI=Intel's smarter younger brother.Just have some patience people...]]>Apr 13th 2007 7:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/
If you don't shop newegg.com or better i hate you! lol]]>Apr 13th 2007 7:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/
I dont sit and wait for tech. I buy what has what I want when I need it. Im about to build a new PC and HDMI out would be, in the wise words of Borat..."very nice". If Nvidia has HDMI available on a 8800 before this comes out, well....sorry ATI.

Im happy to see this news from ATI. I just hope they are done playing catch-up to Nvidia and get this this on the market.]]>Apr 13th 2007 7:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/Apr 14th 2007 1:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/Apr 13th 2007 7:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/
Or even worse, when will it have Linux support? nvidia's linux drivers are excellent (better than the Windows ones, certainly) but they always have feature-lag :(]]>Apr 13th 2007 11:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/Apr 13th 2007 9:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/Apr 13th 2007 11:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/13/amd-names-names-r600-now-the-ati-radeon-hd-2900-xt/Apr 18th 2007 7:18AM
