"If you had looked at the benchmarks, you would have seen that this huge, loud overpriced card gets spanked by ATi's 9700Pro. This is terrible. We wanted a price war and we're about to get a massacre. ATi doesn't even have to worry about the "next gen Radeon" if the six-month-old Radeon is beating NVidia's 1.5 lb roaring monster which is not even released yet. Somewhere in Canada there is a lot of high-fiving going on today. Plans for reducing the price of the 9700Pro are being scrapped. Due to recent NVidia incompetence, the ATi profittaking is about to begin... which means we the customers lose."
