You say budget but the report says high priced

if its priced low enough, it would kick Nvidia from the 8600GT/9600GT/8800GTS 320mb performance bracket though

Hmmm I wonder where it will lay in the performance stakes in real figures.

Price it too high and I can`t really see it selling. Which maybe why ASUS are doing a lone-ranger with this card.

13k on 3Dmark06 which is 34% better than a single card.

Compared to what? Ive seen 8800GTs do 13k.

After that will come AMD's next dual-GPU solution, the HD3850 X2, which will support 512MB to 1GB GDDR3 or 1.8GHz DDR memory. With a price between $299 and $379, the HD3850 X2 is meant to challenge Nvidia's 8800GTS.

From this article. Possible AMD is going to overshoot that original estimate?
