well 512 mb cards were promised the end of last year but it's all been put off due to memory avilabilty / cost .. mfg issues etc with the latest cards

note sure when they will start showing up but be ready to shell out $600 if not more for a video card....then again they could avoid uaseing more then 256 by useing soultions like nvidia's or ati's turbo chace designs

we wont know intill they tell us

has anyone tested it fo gaming or are we just assuming as such because of the probable lack of driver support for games?

judging from how FireGL cards do for games, I'm pretty damn sure it won't work for crap.

And yes, drivers are the main issue, as a fireGL is a radeon core
