    I'm sure many people buy it. I mean if i was rich, i would definately buy it, but some people probably get it so that they are prepared for the future, you know?

    They sound incredible, and for the price you would expect only the best, that's one monster cooler as well, I love this though
    Lmao, that's one kick-ass grandmother then!

    Yeah, but imagine 2 of those in SLI, talk about bragging rights!
    They are complete overkill, but I want 2 just for the bragging rights....all I need to do now is win the lottery

    I can't see the price staying that high for very long. Yes, some people can afford them, but even then, there's a point where people will just forget it. $750 for a non-workstation video card is a tough pill to swallow. I'd expect to see it settle around $500-600 or a little less if they want to sell these for Christmas.

    I'm sure that guy is joking about his gram, I mean how man grandmothers do you know that have SLI rigs with one kick ass PSU? And if she wanted faster loading web pages why wouldn't he get her faster broadband? Funny just the same:p
    I think it would be cool but totally pointless aside from benchmarks. I mean sure these cards will last a while but one would be way more than enough and by the time it's not a way cheaper card will replace it with more features and power. But yeah for the righ why the hell not.

    Yeah, soon they will take over the computer world...
    Yeah that grandmother thing was a joke, I mean unless she's got more money than sense then I can't see it happening, but it was funny all the same.
