yes...or do something stupid and buy a 512 MB 6800 Ultra the moment it is release. I may be mistaken but I beleive that the new ATI cards can already be bought from some places.

Nah,the new ATIs havent come out yet.

Like Shabow said if your not desperate wait till the new Nvidia cards come out.If you really want one now though I'd suggest a Radeon 9800 pro.

New $209:

Do you have any monetary limits? If you want the most powerful and can afford to wait and have the money, wait for next-generation cards from nVidia and ATi.

Hey andyboy the new Alienware computers are great and innovative, but the thing that is dumb is when you go out and spend $4,000+ on a system that you dont even need. I am running a 1.9ghz P4 (socket 423), 512 MB RAM, and a Geforce Ti4600 and I can play UT2004 with high graphics settings with 42 FPS. All I am saying is your retarded if you go out and buy this the second it comes out because the only person who would need this is a guy who works at Pixar and wants to render crap..... duh


Oh yea that new processor is the Socket T (I think I might be wrong) which has the pins not on the CPU, but on the Mobo

you should be able to mail order an X800Pro from some of the larger retailers (CDW, CompUSA, Best Buy) for 400$, these *should* be shipping out now.
