Reading a bit about these new nvidia 8 series cards, built with the new GPU chip which is 65nm and seemingly the shizzle in performance despite being cheap:

I have no cash but tempted, very tempted these are meant to be really good

I was looking, but i think ill wait for the x3800 and see what its capable of, 45nm, possibility of anything up to 4-way crossifire and DX10.1, probably sitting at the £150 mark.

Just seen performance stats of this very card and it comes with a cool game, not got money but buying this, lol

I know sh*ts bad right now with all that starving bullsh*t and the dust storms and we are running out of french fries and burrito coverings.

For the price it is getting stonking reviews for what it is and two in SLI is sounding a bargin, even one card if your on 7 series still is something to really consider.
