NVIDIA GeForce 8800 Ultra Sneak Preview

May 4th 2007 | Graphics Cards

NVIDIA Corporation has introduced the world’s fastest graphics processing unit (GPU), the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 Ultra. NVIDIA has quickly moved into production with the new GeForce 8800 Ultra video card, and they are offering it to the most dedicated consumers with a price tag approaching nearly $1000. NVIDIA promises unmatched performance, but what exactly is the GeForce 8800 Ultra, and is it worth the money?

..Unless you are blessed with a five-digit monthly income, or can win one for free, it seems to be an absolute waste of money. At the very least, NVIDIA could have gotten away with offering their new GeForce 8800 Ultra with this inflated price tag if they had added some new technology. A good start would have been DDR4 and possibly a newly released (or more likely binned) GPU. But what we got instead was the same old product with a new name and a small twist on the dial. No thanks.
