X800 Pro released :D

[aXeR]

w00t the wait is over and despite ATi's somewhat quiet approach they released their car ahead of Nvidea. Nvidea obviously have realised that ATihave done an excellent job as they have a paper release of a more overclocked ultra, despite none of their range even being laucnhed yet.

Anyway read for yourself, some sexy numbers here

ye ive seen these reviews, tbh these cards are all b benched on beta / old drivers. its best 2 wait till the end of the month till ati has a proper driver for there new cards. also nvidia need 2 release there full drivers and also these all taken on refrece cards. there has been words that albatrons 6800 ultra will b clocked at 600mhz only time will tell for now. looks like my 9800xt still has abit of life in it yet

I'm pretty certain im going for the XT. Some reviews I've seen the 6800u scores much better. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Pricing?

Brwmogazos.. the ati lot reckon the PRO will retail at $399 and the XT at $499 according to http://www.ati.com/companyinfo/press/2004/4750.html . If only the Mach II GT was $499 !

x800XT for me. As soon as AA/AF is put on and gona to high res it starts to leave the NV40 behind.

I'm really confused now - what are you saying for Pro and XT in £ sterling?

[Platty]

pro $399

XT $499

We wont get a straight pund:dollar conversion though. Add VAT etc.

its £250 pounds sterling yeah for the pro then...+ vat

so should we expect what £300 for the pro and £400 for the XT here in the UK when they hit the shelves?
