I have to back up Shintai on this - it's total BS that nVidia gets a pass on this. Not only that - but their current drivers are buggy as s@#$. Can we say stuttering stanley on games? How about memory clocks not being initialized properly? No Vista drivers? No support for HDCP over *Dual-DVI*?

nVidia has a ways to go with 8800. It's obvious that it was rushed out the door. (I have 2 of them in SLI and am not happy that I paid $1400 for a beta product).

Yep...that's the problem right there. They are not even remotely a good news site to quote from.

Thank you current 8800 owners for participating in nvidia's public beta program. I appreciate the effort and money you spent in discovering the compatibility problems before the launch product arrives.

LOL! Sure nVidia. Your new rev1.01 might be. But the ones people bought now aint. And a month or two sounds like buying time and hope it goes away. If it passed the test we wouldn´t have the PCI x8 issues etc.

Or the fault may lie on mobo manufacturers. It was only recently that we had numerous memory problems on both specific am2 and core 2 mobos.
