The x800 series has always been known as 9800 on steroids, aside from pixelshader 2b and a higher clock speed its the same as the 9800. The clock speed increase was brought about by the die size shrink. And obviously the ram running at 1120mhz helps with the speed bump. Their new chip is coming in the new year, so new design, have to see what that brings to the table.


6800-ultra is still 2 power connectors but the official word is "one for normal operation and 2 for overclocking". Saying that though i was whoring forums when this was released and seen people getting artifacts with one connector and no overclocking so i dunno if that was ever resolved.

Don't really keep up with the hardware scene as much as i used to =/
