According to Xbitlabs, Nvidia will unveil a new GPU to combat ATI's X1900XT in March.
The fresh code-named G71 graphics processor and what is claimed to be the GeForce 7900-series product lineup are expected to be officially announced during CeBIT show that is held in Hannover, Germany from March 9th to March 15th, according to information published earlier. The high-end GeForce 7900 GTX is projected to feature 32 pixel processors, operate in the range of 700MHz – 750MHz and come equipped with 1600MHz – 1800MHz GDDR3 memory.

    I have this strange feeling that the X1900's will be toasted in March..

    I'm having a really good time sitting on the sidelines during this latest GPU war..
    I think I'll wait for the smoke to clear and enjoy my more than capable x850 until then :D

    I've been sitting on the sidelines for the past two and a half (and now almost three) generations. You know what? It sucks that they price these things so high. It really is frustrating.

    But at the same time, I don't need anything more powerful, for how often I game. Hm.

    I Know it's irrational, but my X850XTPE has SM3.0/HDR envy :wtf:

    i wonder if theyll ever stop. nVidia and ATI are like old generals, one fires and the other fires back, and the battles last days at a time and no one wins.

    maybe they should each focus on making a killer gpu instead of just barely trumping the others minutely.

    I have been wondering about the same thing.

    Every few months they release a new card to out-do the other. Put the price up (of course) get some tech site to give it rave reviews and when we buy it we sometimes battle to see the difference in performance between the new and the old. :scratch:

    They should take time out to work on something really revolutionary.

    Maybe the 7800s will come down a little bit in pricing.
