So they will start pouring in now.

EDIT : Sorry was just a preview

I am waiting for the H an TR's reviews though.
 
NO dude..... Aces posted a link. Then he realised it was a preview of which we have read many.,.....

So, he edited the post and removed the link....

Anyway we can make this as a thread for the reviews that will start coming in.........
 
And it seems that the first 7800 GTX has been sold. Guru3D.com carries an article in which it states that the 7800 GTX has been released in the UK. The same article contains a post which states that a card has been sold.
 
The reviews have started :

An I must say it seems impressive :

The GeForce 7800 GTX is a considerable performance advance over its predecessor, the 6800 Ultra. It's markedly faster in terms of pixel shader power, texel fill rate, and vertex throughput. The 7800 GTX is easily the fastest graphics card on the market now, dethroning the Radeon X850 XT Platinum Edition. More importantly, the GeForce 7800 GTX makes high-dynamic-range rendering run at acceptable speeds in games like Far Cry and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, so the performance gains bring tangible benefits by making tasty new forms of eye candy possible in real time. And if you pair up a couple of 7800 GTXs in SLI, you can get nearly twice the peak rendering power. Some of those benchmark scores are still making my head spin.

Woot Transparency Supersampling looks amazing without a huge performance hit...

Yes, the 7800 GTX is grand progress on the semiconductor front, but do you want to pay $599 in order to fund GPU research and development? Or $1200 for the big prize of an SLI rig? You're certainly getting a lot of rendering power for all of that money, but not many apps will use it. Perhaps the bragging rights are worth it for some folks, but for playing today's games, I'd probably settle for a GeForce 6600 GT or a Radeon X800 XL. I'm cheap that way, I suppose.

Same here..... The difference is not staggering enough to upgrade from a 6800GTo r Ultra unless you want braggin rights.

The only noticeable difference is the transparency supersampling..... Otherwise, there is no need to go for a 7800 GTX.
 
Wow man, awesome demos. Will just let myself drool cause thats about all that I can do ;). And my damn ultra is just 2.5 months old cant ditch that just for transparency supersampling........
 
Finally Nvidia is ditching the brute force approach. And introducing features which actually works. It TS looks really amazing, but I doubt whether the mid range cards would be able to handle that...
 
Actually Nvidia has done a great job by making the cards ready on the day of the launch ! I hope ATi learns from this..........
 
"If you are reading this review and laughing at the people who spend money like water on bleeding edge technology, this card is not for you. The Intel IGP is in the next aisle... it will do you just fine."

Read this at Tom's Hardware's Review of the 7800 GTX, here

http://graphics.tomshardware.com/graphic/20050622/nvidia_7800_gtx-22.html

Can somebody throw some light on the above statement??

Will intel's Integrated Graphics Processor be very powerful or what???

DC.
 
lol....they mean to say tht if u find this card not worth the money then the IGP is just fine for them...:cool2:
 
yeah.... for people who are not die hard gamers.... for those sort of people, the onboard graphics will be good enough. The latest ones.... which are yet to be released....
