With Windows 7 due in stores sometime in october (i know right), is there a video card being produced in quantity that supports directX 11? Also, does anyone have an update as to when PCIe 3.0 is coming out? Thanks in Advance.|||There is a GPU being released concurrently with Windows 7 by AMD/ATI in October. Apparently, it will be a 1GB memory footprint and based upon the 4890 series. As for PCIe 3.0...from what I gather this roll-out will be released with the introduction of USB 3.0 sometime in late 2010, or early 2011, depending on market forces such as demand. Most people such as myself seem to be satisfied with current technology for the moment, so this could prevent PCIe 3.0 along with USB 3.0 from being released for some time. My advice would be to max out an LGA 775 board if you have one, with the Q9650 CPU (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AS IT CRUSHES MOST CPU'S!), and use it until 2012, which should see Intel's introduction of a REAL successor to the legendary LGA 775 series, codenamed Haswell. These CPU's will be based on a 22 nm fab process which should dwarf everything including LGA1366...whoever buys one is really wasting their money rather than sticking with 775 till then.|||AMD will be releasing its 5000 series on Sept 10th
