    Question Radeon 8800 Fire GL workstation card

    On ATi's site they have that card on there for workstation use...would it not totally rock in a gamer pc?

    128MB of RAM must be worth something?

    Bet it's damn expensive!

    Anyone know anything about these kind of "workstation" cards?

    ------------------
    AMD Athlon 1.4GHz
    ASUS A7V266
    2x 256MB Crucial PC2100
    nVidia Geforce 2 Ultra
    Fujitsu x174
    Creative SB Live 5.1
    Cambrige Works DTT2200
    IBM Ultrastar 36LZX Ultra 160 (20GB) SCSI
    Adaptec 19160 SCSI
    Mirai 40x16x10 CDRW SCSI

    When the new Radeons with 300/300MHz clock and memory form OCZ or Hercules come out... goodbye GF2Ultra!
    Out with the old, in with the new (by 05/03 :

    * nVidia nForce2
    * AMD Athlon XP 2800+
    * 2x256MB PC2100 Crucial @ PC2700 <DONE>
    * Coolermaster ATC-201 <DONE>
    * ATi Radeon 9700 Pro / nVidia next gen
    * Logitech® Z-680
    * Microsoft Optical Desktop Pro
    * Hansol 17" LCD H711 Silver

    Thats the basics
