It’s now been nine months since Nvidia released the 7800GTX and shortly after, the 7900GT. With 24 pipelines and 8 vertex shaders it was the undisputed king until the ATI X1800XT came along. At about the same time Nvidia released the 7800GTX 512 which kept Nvidia in the top spot. The card was great and for a couple of weeks they sold very well but the problem was that supply quickly dried up and the price went through the roof. The few that can still be found are selling for over $900. Faced with the pressures of few GTX 512’s actually shipping and competing with the new king of the hill X1900XTX, Nvidia is refreshing two new boards based off the same 24/8 architecture that they released in the original 7800GTX back in June.
