Quick Roundup:


GPU: GeForce FX5800 Ultra
128MB DDRII
Core clock: 500Mhz; Memory clock: 1Ghz
Board weight: 600gr
75 watt power consumption under full load!
Excessively loud in 3D mode (see details)
DVI; S-Video; VGA connectors
Provided driver: 42.63


So its basicaly heavier then 9700pro, its also slower then 9700pro(in most cases) it weighs alot more, draws alot more power and it cost 1-2x more expensive.

So looks like we solved the GF-FX Dual PCI FX cooling problem for the Shuttles..... as in dont even bother buying the GF-FX, since the 9700 pros cheaper and faster

Reviews are due tommorow on Monday, expect Nvidia to blame ex-3dfx employers for everything

well pretty much the same results as on tecchannel.de earlier today

well nvidia needs a drastic performance increase (maybe drivers?)...dont get me wrong i think they make the more reliable drivers/ boards but ati is getting close !!!
