'Good Morning' edburg

They'll be available in India about mid this month, no idea about price though.

holy cow! its going to be available in less than two weeks!!!

I dont expect it to be priced anywhere less than 40k in India. Prices of graphics cards in India always suck. Hopefully this should bring the prices of 7900GTX and 7950GX2 below 30k.

[MakeWayForTheBadGuy]

^Definitely less than 40k .

[coolendra]

wat a card.....

but i think i'll cost a lot... considerin the current price of 7950 cards....

[samrulez]

Price of the 8800GTX is 36k..

holy shamoly!!! did u see the power consumtion 300w+
that is more then a whole mainline computer!!!

[aquamatrix]

yep a big power consumer, will put a very big hole in the pocket of whomsoever who buys it.

not advisable to buy it now until you are uber rich. better wait for a few months and wait for a few more models.

prices will be above 40k.

8800gts is lukin a better option right now

bloddy hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!in two over here?????now dat is somethin.....i think its gonna b arn 40 to 45k easily...the 7900 & 7950 will get cheaper

[Ambar]

this is just gonna be something else...u can get the 8800 gts for around 400-500 dollars...

The power consumption was for the whole system with the graphic card under full load accounting to 300W.

Its just that the sys requires a min of 450W power supply is recommended(It also requires 2 PCl-E power connectors).
