NVIDIA, as well as XFX, have a winner on their hands! I can definitely see the GeForce 7800 GT becoming an enthusiast favourite, as well as a high-end "sweet spot" card as the GeForce 7800 GT manages to pump out great performance at a price point that is more palpable than its bigger brother.

Considering the $200 (it will be $150 for manufacturers who follow NVIDIA's MSRP) USD difference in MSRPs between the XFX GeForce 7800 GT and 7800 GTX, I'm extremely pleased with the level of performance that the 7800 GT is capable of delivering. XFX's 50MHz overclock on the core and modest 50MHz on the memory certainly played a factor. I was expecting the decrease in the number of pixel and vertex shader pipelines, as well as memory clock speeds, to have a larger impact on performance, but that simply wasn't the case. While these differences were measurable by scientific means in nearly all of our tests, they will simply not be great enough for most gamers, to notice. What is 5 to 8 FPS in a game when you're already pushing 80+? Negligible.

With GeForce 6800 Ultra prices still above the $400 USD mark, anyone who was planning to shell out that much for a new video card will be pleasantly surprised that not only will the 7800 GT save them a few bucks, but it will also get them almost top-notch graphics performance. Think of it as a "free" upgrade from the 6800 Ultra for any potential buyers.

I have to say that this card comes highly recommended from me. If you are in the market for a ~$400 video card, you should snatch one of these babies up right away, as there is absolutely nothing in this price range right now capable of delivering close to this level of performance. You will be receiving a gaming experience almost indistinguishable from the flagship 7800 GTX, but at 2/3 the cost. Who can argue with that?

Price and performance -- this is a winning combination.
