Are you going to wait on ATi's next generation video card?

I wouldn't mind picking up the GTX now. However, waiting on the R520 to come out to see how it compares. Also worried about Nvidia releasing an Ultra version at the same price as the GTX later.

I'm happy with my 6800 until Ati/Nvidia start reduce prices a bit, £400 is over my range for a Gfx chip.

Got an X800 XL within the last 4 months, won't be getting a new card any time soon.
Even if I was in line for a new card, the top of the line models aren't worth what they cost. Both ATI and nVidia, in my eyes, rip people off with those prices.

I just finished putting all I could into this current rig to stave off upgrading for another year,by that time an upgrade will be required anyway
