So G71 could actually be the 7800Ultra by by the looks of things - nice find my young apprentice.
But with the G80 (8800/8900 series??) just 5 months away after that with brand new features - not sure if I will even go for the 71 or just wait for the 80 which may even have DDR4 included as well as SM4?

DDR3 is something that is now reaching it's limits and DDR4 brings with it certain advantages of it's counterparts - the X1800 core is already able to cope with DDR4 when it's available in qty's (which could mean the R520 the budget choice in years to come if they revise the board with DDR4).
So the future for 2006 will be all the fours DDR4 and SM4, perhaps 4GPU's and tehn we need another 4 to make it the power of FOUR

I wish our mainboard RAM was evolving as fast as the graphics RAM.....
Dont worry, I mean us amd owners have got cutting edge DDR2 just around the corner
. I mean just think of the super tight timmings of 4-4-4-12, WOW!Is anyone gonna do the whole DDR2 thing when its available? I for one am gonna stick with my Mushkin XP's

I think it's more of the fact that you can overclock 1:1 to max FSB (eg 400*9) and that may be faster than 250*14 2-2-2-5 in most cases.... maybe?
If you buy the really good stuff you can tighten that up a bit too.
