Its obvious that you are one of the last amd fanATIcs... yeah we expect the 8800 GT to be destroyed, in the same way that 2900 claimed the performance crown, in the same way that the 2600 redefined the mainstream DX10 gaming. Just wake up...

I'm starting to think that somebody needs to get Pat "Vicious Like A Pitbull" Glesinger, the heads of DAMMIT and the green lot together in a room, with a bucket of crabs, and quitely, yet firmly get them to sort their nameing schemes out!!!!

"destroying price/performance ratio of both 8600GTS and 8800GT"

Ah, yes. It was the R600, poised to "utterly destroy the G80", then 2400/2600 that were about to "wipe the floor with nVidia's competing parts"... and now RV670 which will "destroy the 8800GT". Forgive me if I am a bit skeptical this time around. And stop drinking ATI's kool-aid : doesn't the label warn you it makes drinkers sound like fanboiz?
