Hell ya it is. It beats the 9800GTX too.
What surprises me is the fact that nVidia has not released 9800GT yet.Is the 9-series too shortlived ? Maybe Thats why nVidia is trying to push the 2xx series onto us.

Have you considered getting a Sempron LE for 1.4K now ? Because 780G is so good that it can play HD videos even with Sempron. This way, you can wait for 45nm Phenoms. But if its confirmed that the 45nm phenoms will come out only by november, then forget it and get a 65nm B3.

And have you already purchased the 780G ? If you are considering OverClocking, and if you are getting an external GPU, its better to go for 790FX if its cheap enough.
