Nope, I'm jumping ship. No way will that fit in my case and it sucks double the juice the 8800 does, at 300 watts. I'd need a PS near 1000 watts with my two burners, 3 hard drives and the various case fans if I bought the R600. The most the 8800 takes I heard was around 180 watts and it's shorter. I've bought the last two cards from ATI and this time I'm done. |

That's a prototype and nobody has the power chart of the card. Look at the lenght of it - it's just like a X1900 (perhaps a tad longer) and of course the cooler won't be the one you see in the pics! Nobody wants another GF5800 in their case. |

Well I guess there is no point to post a news story about it if the end product will be nothing like this prototype whatsoever, eh? |

Well, it's even written in the ZDNet page you visited: "ATI R600 Prototype". Of course everybody is curious to see a piece of hot hardware like this one. I'd take the prototype in a jiffy if they'd let me  |

Might as well cut their losses on this one and focus on the next generation, haha |
