Anyone know anything official about the 9800GTX?
Rumours state that it should be released around November this year ish, so I'm wondering if I should hold off buying a new gfx card and wait for that to come out, then get an 8800GTX for cheap as chips.
EDIT: Managed to find a decent link to something that looks pretty official..

3x faster than the 8800gtx eh. _________________

seeing as i wont switch over to vista, i dont see any need to upgrade my 7800GTX, so no real point in buying a dx10 card

Aye, if you can play okay now I would 
Can anyone recommend a reasonable low-spec PCI-E card, preferably not one of those shite turbo-cache things - I need to finish off a box for server stuff, which will no doubt be upgraded to the afforementioned 9800  _________________  The Pancreas of S.T.F.U. | Never take life too seriously - nobody gets out alive anyway.

Why would you buy such a card ? There´s no CPU up-to-date out which will even max out a 8800GTX.

Ooo mis-direction ftw! (when the cards come out).
I will market my 9800 on EBay... and see who bites 
Course, it will be a 9800 radeon pro (ATI) and not a nVidia, but it could be fun to see who buys it for 300 nicker

I'm sure dropping 1000 tons onto a blade that's synthetic diamond created and 1 mm thick... will resoundingly shatter the diamond blade
