"If you’re counting on HDTV working on your spanky new 6800, you’re out of luck: it has been confirmed this morning by Derek Perez of NVIDIA that the both the core and the existing reference board have no capacity to support an HDTV signal – though it is planned for the future NV43 & NV41 cores. If you are hoping a third party vendor is going to slap a discrete chip on there, you are likely to be disappointed because as far as we know no vendors are straying from the reference design."

This news has already been proven wrong. Those guys at bit-tech.net got something completely wrong. All GF5900s and above support HDTV. In fact the latest leaked 61.21 driver add also complete HDTV support to the 6800 series. |

No, not at all. The fuckwit I was referring to was the writer of the original news piece and not W2S or any other newslink type site  |
