At the end it says "Nvidia killer" wtf is that, lol. Nvidia cant use GDDR5 or what?
Looks good, but I say go in order, ya know, 1, 2, 3, 4,5... Get my drift, lol. I still dont see anything out with Gddr4, unless, does ati's cards use it?

I don't know what "Nvidia killer" is all about, but Nvidia definitely needs some competition. Competitions means better products being released.

GDDR4 has been out and ATi are the only company that uses them...too bad for Nvidia.

my card has like 53GB\s memory bandwidth, and its only GDDR3, how can GDDR5 only be up to 20??

also GDDR5 wont be out for a LONG time, GDDR4 is only used in like 2 cards right now, and there all ATI.
