This card with it's unbelievable 2 GPUs on the card, has 512MB assigned to each card, totalling a nice 1GB of RAM! What's next??? To top it off it also has SLI technology... Now can you imagine having two of these baby's on one motherboard! CRAZY!!! :shock: Check it out @ http://www.nvidia.com/page/geforce_7950.html

That's insane. That card have to be more powerful than some pc's today. I bet it costs a lot. My rule is I only buy a video card if it's under $100. I figure the card that's best now will go down from $600 to $100 in a year so I'll just wait. How about you?

Absolutely! The way PC technology is evolving nowadays its pointless spending hundreds on a part... Take for instance Hyperthreading, there hasnt even been time to develop software to make use of it and now Dual Core has been released... Thats why I also feel rather wait till it's affordable, since its going to be in due time anyway and then purchase it...
