Theres a reason why its 600$, its the fastest video card in the world today. You pay for what you get. Of course, it doesnt mean you have to go out and buy it right now...but for all serious hardcore gamers (which are the only class of people who would really need such behemoth power) this card seems to be a godsent.

What a goofy trade-off! Responding to James:

Thats more than a whole system would cost. Why the hell does this thing have to cost $600 dollars? Thats more than a whole system would cost.

I certainly hope I do not need to upgrade my motherboard, what a hassle that would be. Will Nvidia be making an AGP version of this card?
