I'm the one from the Nvnews thread. Whether the ram is overclocked or not I don't know although I would have been happier if it read GC16 instead of GC20. However it does run @ 600MHz stable. Here is the reply email from Nvidia: "Thank you for your email. Regarding your card's RAM...

61.71 drivers. No oc'ing on any hardware. Abit IC7 MAX3 / P4 3.4C / Geil 3500ULD 4x512meg sticks @ 2.5-3-3-7 (btw PAT is disabled on the IC7 MAX3 when using all 4 dimm slots).

Same here.

Pete's framebuffer read speed test Mail: BlackDove@addcom.de Homepage: http://home.t-online.de/home/PeteBernert/ Vendor: NVIDIA Corporation Version: 1.5.1 Renderer: GeForce 6800 Ultra/AGP/SSE2 --------------------------------- Frontbuffer reading speed (back)...

Actually this card with the GC20 2ns modules will hit 1.24GHz stable so I am hopeing that they will have some longevity running at 1.10GHz. Who knows. :?: I certainly would have been more at easy to have seen the 1.6ns ram on this specific card but it wasn't to be.

What the hell is the real story here??? I just got a 6800U and was expecting HDTV support :? Statements to the effect that the 6800U supported HDTV were all over the place prior to this info? If this is the case then this card is going back!....how can Nvidia possibly claim one thing...

So what does this all mean? The program that tests SM3.0 is poorley coded? Nvidia's SM3.0 part/6800 is a hoax and doesn't support SM3.0 properly? More work need to be done on the drivers for the 6800 to run the SM3.0 paths? nvidia's hardware (6800) is a poor design and doesn't have...

Pride comes before a fall. :roll:

I'm not too familliar with all this tech jargon but have a question. Which card (X800XT or 6800U) has the highest shader throughput? From what I have been able to garnish from reading around is that shaders are a very important function for preformance in games. Yet from what I have read...
