My theory is that the 8800 GT was released solely for the launch of the 9k series. The 8800 GTS, GTX, and Ultra were too expensive to lower in price, so why not release a newer chip that's less expensive to make, is powerful, and will be the perfect supplement for a new batch of 9k series? Makes perfect sense to me!
