I would love to, and I am actually saving up to get one.
Unless some one is kind enough to send me one. I know, wishing upon a star...Last edited by Uber_Tiny; 06-07-2008 at 03:51 PM.

I'm still sitting on my G80 GTS and haven't felt inclined to budge away from it until this comes out. My rants about how wrongly named the 9800 series on Rage are long and sometimes colorful, so I'll spare ya'll another repeat since most of you have read my opinion on the matter already over there. GTX260 is squarely targeted and in my sights as soon as it hits the market. I just ordered a new Corsair 650TX and will be more then ready for whatever GTX260 may ask of my power supply capacity. I don't think my current BFG 650 watt is up to the task since it only has 6 pin PCIe power connectors on it.

When asked about the naming of the GTX in a conference today, it was "no" on it being a sign that Nvidia will be releasing fewer cards to help with customer confusion, such as the 8800 series. The GTX stands for there Enthusiasts brands and the 9xxx series will still go on. Hinting that other 9xxx cards are in the making.

As for power consumption. This is where things get nice. It was made for "Green" in mind. (sorry about the pun there)
I wish I could talk more about the actual specs. I will be able to release the info very soon though.

I'm wanting to do some upgrades soooo bad, just don't have the money for it though :/ I'm waiting on my stimulus check and hoping it'll be enough to get my car fixed. I'm tired of walking!
