Graphic Cards Any idea when the 8600 will be launched?

[m47r1m]

I am kinda itching for a new system and I've got everything narrowed down except the graphic card. I could either go for a 7900GS right now or I could wait for the 8600 ultra which (I hope) will be in the same price point.

So any word from Nvidia about the launch? How long does it take for a card to reach the Indian market after the US launch? And lastly how well do DX 10 cards work on XP as I have no intention of going upto Vista anytime this year.

There you go, a nice preview,

Details GeForce 8600 series surfaced

and no there's no problem on xp, although there won't be any dx10 in xp in the first place.

May End seems like a tentative date to expect the 8600 in India i suppose.. Though expect it to cost at least 15k then..
