Ive been deligently reading up on reviews on current hardware and upcoming hardware. The release for the upcoming DX10 compatible GPU (nVidia G80 aka. GeForce 8800) is soon so i hear. Sometime around Mid- November these cards will be launched. I for one am considering buying one of these after i hear some news how they are performing (not to long of a wait though). The only problem is that DX10 wont be out till JAN. So, it wont be at its full potential until then. But it still looks promising despite that. its still DX backwards compatible. only DX10 is not backwards compatabile. I like how they did that. With that said....whos waiting to get those cards?

I'll get one around X-Mas but only because I'm currently running vista as a primary.
Buyer beware though. Wate for the second wave of cards to come out. The first cores are bound to have problems.
Cheers

PS: Old news. If you were to read frequently you would have heard this back in July.

I posted this months ago about DX10...
March to May will be the time to buy
Anyone who buys before then is asking to have their cigar lit off several sawbucks.
