First Reviews: NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT GPU

Posted by timothy on from the when-embargos-expire dept.

Spinnerbait writes "This morning NVIDIA let fly with a cut-back version of their GeForce 7800GTX flagship card, dubbed the GeForce 7800GT. HotHardware has a full review and showcase posted of this new more reasonably price GeForce 7 series card. Overall it's performance was impressive but there is a tad bit of confusion in the channel about clock speeds on these new boards, so keep you eye on retail board specifications." The embargo's off: here's TheTechLounge's review, and GDHardware's, too -- I'm sure you'll find links to others in the comments below.

  1. Good deal on 7800 gt by afay · · Score: 4, Informative

    Dell has it for 342 + 4 shipping = 346. See the deal at slickdeals.

    Lowest price on pricewatch is 404 after shipping.

    Also, BFG is a good manufacturer to buy from as they have a lifetime warranty. I actually had one of their cards die on me and the RMA process was painless (only had to pay for shipping the card out to them).
