Sorry guys, It's just not worth it for those of us in the graphics business. The actual time increase on a 18"x24" real size render in autoCad or 3dMax for the 5900 vs my ATI 7600 with 64mb ddr is uselessly small. Thats because in the graphics business i still need my cpu to crunch the vector data before it can render, making my cpu and ddr memory busses of crucial importance. Were at most talking 15-20sec saved which is not worth such a price difference.
So truly the only people these are being made for is the small population of gamers and those that love the bleeding edge
