First Reviews: NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT GPU

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.

    Of course. And, of course, since a card of this power is now "mid-range" at $450 MSRP, everyone should have one by now.

    Wait, you mean you DON'T upgrade your $500 video card every 6 months? You mean you've never spent more than $200 on a video card in your entire life and don't really care to? You're obviously not a gamer, we don't have to cater to you, only to our early-adopter ricer customers who feel inferior if they don't have a $4000 Alienware.

    There's no such thing as a "good deal" on bleeding-edge hardware. There's only "expensive" and "ream me with a stick."

    Hey, maybe some people like getting reamed with a stick.
