alseides Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 with 900 i would spend it on something else, like a new computer. heh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimonicka Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 that would be the 6800 ultra, not the extreme edition I guess that is what i get for going to anandtech for info: We don't have any pricing information on the 6800 Ultra Extreme, but it will likely be very high as Ultras are going for $540 USD. We have been told by eVGA that the Ultra cards should retail for $500 while the Ultra Extremes should be $540... ...as your link shows, apparently they did start distributing them in June. Looks like the old supply and demand theory took this one to the roof. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravy Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 yeah, everywhere i have seen it is around a thousand bucks it's all about bragging rights, and having the fastest card out to date the guy works for General Electric and he is a clan leader for a clan playing one of those new mmorpg's, so he likely is single and makes a ton of money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
