Cool Get more info here...
Great preview of it at tomshardware:http://www.tomshardware.com/graphic/...118/index.html
It won't fit my budget, well the 9700pro doesn't either, but I can dream.
It's the 9500pro for me.

Uhm, looks interesting. I was starting to drool.

Hope it lives up to the expectations when it finally comes out.

Wow, thats a nice looking card. I like that heatpipe design for cooling. Takes away a PCI slot definetly but no one uses them all anyways.

meh I won't be getting one though. I'll be going to college soon enough and I probably won't be getting a top notch system 'till I'm out of college.

Yep, it does! And you won't have a choice. Click Here and go to about the middle of the page. There are a couple of shot there. Also, a little further down is a separate article about other Nvidia items...

I always leave that slot open anyway because of the heat a agp card can generate.

Yeah, I think most people who would be in the market for the FX will have motherboards with plenty of PCI slots. Therefore, nvidia probably wasn't too concerned with taking up 2 slots except for those micro ATX users...

It may (with luck) be sooner than that. December's issue of Maximum PC already had their hands on a beta-card, and said they should have a "reviewable" card by next issue. I take that to mean that it's in it's final stages.

Ya, the 9700 Pro spanks the GF 4 - That's one reason I'm waiting for the "GF 5"

And because it shares the IRQ with the AGP.

Too bad my new mobo has only 4 PCI slots.

Hi All,

Here's a link to a next to useless article from Tech TV, but some of the links there might be of interest...
