Nvidia to launch 7800 GTX 512 on 7th of November

NVIDIA IS planning a seven eleven style counter attack on the Radeon X1800XT.

Just whem ATI said it should be ready with the Radeon X1800XT, its overarching rival plans to reveal its Geforce 7800 GTX with 512MB of memory. As far as we know this card won't have different clock speeds from its 256MB brother but this could easily change.

Nvidia knows that ATI will be one or even two weeks late with the Radeon X1800XT as we don’t expect to see any cards before the twenty something of November, and Nvidia will be there to nail ATI with its 512 MB cards.

However, according to intels we found out, we don’t expect that the 512MB version of Geforce 7800 GTX will be any faster but you never know your luck in the big city.

We know that Geforce 7800 GTX 512 MB cards are again going to be available at launch, and it's very likely that they will also be cheaper than ATI's Radeon X1800XT cards. Nvidia will have a two to three weeks advantage over ATI.

Nvidia will hit ATI hard and it will hurt, Nvidia is in a better position as it is completely controlling the ball - it already has its cards while ATI has still to get them. This is very hard pressure on ATI, Nvidia is pressing its Canadian rival as hard as it can. But still hope remains, as ATI seems to be the new king of Open GL. So if you like Doom 3 and Quake 4 you might want to wait for ATI. µ

its the same quadro cooler .... love to have that kooler on mine GTX :D ..... no where i can find a good cooler for mine card ...... and temps are really alarming :(
 
You can buy NVsilencer 5 rev3.0. That fits the 7800series. also zalman will fit 7800GTX/GT. I might have one up for sale soon. I will inform you. I had imported two, one is being used in my friend's pc and other is suppose to be used on this 7800GT. But i doubt my cousine will want to change the stock cooler of this xfx card ;) In that case i will put it up for sale :P
 
its supposed to be clocked soo high to start with. So they need big cooler.

Basically its ditto Quadro 4500 which also carries 512MB RAM unlike 256 on 7800GTX.

The memory speed is truely stunning. I dont know how Nvidia partners are gona be able to launch it at say $549. The ram must be costing huge amount of money, specially such fast ram.
 
thanks funky for the offer but the main problem with NV silencer is the small heatsink for power capacitors on the right side of the card ......with the stock kooler it is getting little air for kooling ..... but with nvsilencer it will be blocked and will get no air for kooling ..... and the heatsink is really getting hot ..... while running BF2@1280x960 with all high setting the card is in the range of 78-80*c ..... but the power capacitor heatsink feels really really hot i can barely touch it with my hands ...... and i have no clue how to kool that .... i am planning to remove the stock fan and put a AMD64 stock fan onto it ......

but will it start without any fan coz the card is having a fan sensor and i will not be connectiing the other fan to the cards connector ...... do u have any idea about that ....coz there are some cards which will not start if they don't detect a fan .....
 
i think X1800XT's days are over ..... imagine power of 24pipe @ 580Mhz .....

frequencies of XFX card

3D : 580/1730MHz

Throttle : 500/1730MHz

2D : 275/1730MHz

x1800xt will not do so well with 512mb gtx clocked so fast ;)
