GeForce 6800

Does anyone have any idea when this video card will be released? Or was it already released? If so, I am unable to find any companies which are selling it.

But I think companies such as Alienware already sell this video card together with some of their computers.
Still, I think you have to pay alot to get this Geforce with their machines.

Yeah, probably about $2300 for a machine with a 6800 in it

Not worth it in my opinion. I would wait for the prices to drop.
Or just get a cheaper video card. A Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB is a great choice.

I never buy top of the line vid cards because you get screwed so bad on the price, but man the 6800 looks like it's going to be pretty amazing. Not that much better than the 9800XT with low visual settings, but it seems to lay the hurt down when the AA and AF are cranked up. I want one

Actually it's a 480w min I'm running a 480w myself, but I probably wouldn't buy that card, PS 3.0 or not.

The card is awesome. The CEO said in an interview a GOOD 350 should run it. But they recomend 400+.
