And your point is?

I would not be surprised if I saw a 1 GB video card within a couple years.

This sort of cards are normally used for programs like Maya and 3D Studio Max. I can't see any one spending that type of money on card for PC games alone.

Uhm, where have you been ? Behind the moon ? :P

http://www.gainward.de/new/main.html -- 2x 68000 Ultra w/ SLI. 1GB VRAM total. 1600euro, that's a bargain. If you want proffessional, get two PNY 4400 Quadro and SLI them. Same specs as above (w/o water cooling), $2200 each..

And BTW, the NV40 chip (6800) can address up to 2GB of memory..

BTW2 -- you want big ? Check this out http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/editor ... 5-2_3.html

Ok ace, your a bit of a noob. 1 GB graphic cards are nothing new in terms of 3d and CAD design and none of them will help you in any of the games you play...
