No High-End Video Card for the next Mac Pro

-

i don’t think there high-end video card available next mac pro.
okay, available apple offer them?

think there 4 high-end consumer video cards on market today; geforce 8800 gts 640mb, geforce 8800 gtx, geforce 8800 ultra, , radeon hd2900 xt.

think 8800 gtx , 8800 ultra can elminated on size alone...10.5 inches long.
above cards old technology.
run hot, hot, , consume lot of power.
apple want cards in computer?
apple?

there 2 new sets of video cards nvidia , ati; geforce 8800 gt (g92) , radeon hd2950 xt , pro (rv670)

radeon hd2950 xt has impressive numbers if rumors true.
isn’t considered high-end card. make it’s debut @ end of month.

nvidia launch it’s 8800 gt (g92) card month. it’s specs not 8800 gts.
8800 gt mid-range card.

smaller die of hd2950 , 8800 gt should make cooler, less noisy, , lower power
consumption 8800 series , hd2900 xt cards.

the next generation of high-end video cards not coming out until next year.

8800 series card or hd2900 xt available bto option of next mac pro
don’t think happen. hope i’m wrong.

if specifications of hd2950 xt true, pretty card.
disappointment expecting 8800 or hd2900 xt.

made following table.
numbers of hd2950 , 8800 gt pure speculation.
if of stats wrong sure let me know.
filled in hd2950 , 8800 gt cards in yellow show new cards that
have not come out yet.

somehow think mac pro gaming machine, when in reality workstation.

might want looking @ firegl , quadro products, high-end replacement.

standard card surely going $50 - $99 card, radeon hd 2600 or geforce 8600.

i'm disappointed in currys' online service. ordered 16gb touch, once had received confirmation email realised address had wrong house number. tried call them, , bounced around 5 different phone numbers (some repeated, different instructions!) , turned out best advice give me cancel order, , order again change house number! how outrageous. anyway, cancelled order , didnt bother ordering again. time i'm going official apple store. it'll take few more days deliver, better discount voucher. oh, know lazy , myself, apple store's refund policy, if find touch not me can return within 28 days, if isnt defective? because i'd rather have classic?   oh dear god... thought had cancelled it. turns out happened call again due lack of confirmation on cancellation, , said not possible me cancel order had apparently been dispatched already. summing up, have wait ipod (whi...
