GeForce 8800 line to hit 12K in 3DMark06
 

The upcoming GF8800 line will hit just under 12,000 in 3DMark06, with a new set of drivers due before the non-denominational year-end festive season, pushing it to just over 12K.

topscore with "single" overclocked system is 12xxx (7950GX2)

how is this puppy going to compete? :)

maybe in sli?

single next gen should have same performance as sli current high end gen in my humble opinion

performance is indeed (far) worse than expected. Certainly not worth $650 imo.

that's $650 without the PSU upgrade or higher power bill
