Nvidia Finally Shipping 6800 PCI Express GPUs
Posted by Jason Dunn in "NEWS" @ 12:00 AM
"Nine months after its NV40 introduction, Nvidia is still struggling to ship most of its PCIe high end parts based on this core. NV45, 6800 GT or Ultra PCIe series are nothing more than an NV40 chip with BR2 bridge chip and specially PCB,but so far, Nvidia has hardly shipped any of the NV45s."
This explains why I'm having such a damn hard time getting my hands on a 6800GT PCI Express :? - I've searched high and low, and I can't find anyone that has them in stock except for one guy on eBay who's selling the card with a motherboard, CPU, RAM - none of which I need. I ended up ordering a 6600GT, which is the most powerful card I could find with dual DVI ports, but not because I wanted to. :roll:
