One of the Inquirer's readers
found out a webshop is already selling the XFX GeForce 7800 GTW with 512MB memory for $799.
Still, this baby is the new king of 3D world, so for $799 you get the following: "7800Ultra" is clocked at 550MHz for the GPU core and 900MHz DDR for the video memory (as written on a retail box). Result is fill-rate of gigantic 8.8 billion pixels per second (up from 6.88 on original 7800GTX) and 13.2 billion texels per second (up from 10.3 Gtexel), bundled with 57.6 GB/s of video bandwidth goodness.
The official release of this video card will follow on Monday.
