8800 GTX just got better

You can now get a Nvida 8800 Ultra
Ultra: Core 612 Mhz, Memory Clock 1080/2160 mhz, Shader Clock 1500 mhz
GTX: Core 575 Mhz, Memory Clock 800 /1900 mhz, Shader Clock 1350 mhz
Its the same card as the 8800 gtx but with more finely tuned componates and better cooling, to achive the higher speeds.

1080 MHz GDDR3 memory which can move data at a amazing 100 Gigabytes per second 20% faster than the GTX.

Nice bit of kit, you can change your point of view in a game by moving your head, you look like a berk wearing it but who cares.

Shame it costs 200 dollars.
