GeForce 8800GTX Benchmarked

An anonymous reader writes "The card does not launch for another week, but DailyTech already has benchmarks of the new GeForce 8800GTX on its website. The new card is the flagship GPU to replace GeForce 7900, and according to the benchmarks has no problem embarrassing the Radeon X1950 XTX either. According to the article, 'The GeForce 8800GTX used for testing is equipped with 768MB of GDDR3 video memory on a 384-bit memory bus as previously reported. Core and memory clocks are set at 575 MHz and 900 MHz respectively.'"

    Would you like some computer with your video card? Why even have a system at all, can I just get a backplane to attach a NIC and power to this card and just run everything from it?

    Just as long as it's not the 9800 Pro, that's fine.
