    I don't believe any of those cards have hit the streets yet, I only know of one Toshiba that will have it.

    This looks like the 7900 go gs replacement.

    With a little bit of luck (and some good clock speeds) it will be able to replace the Go7900/7950GTX cards in terms of performance.

    Actually, I read at several places that it's meant to be the 7950 GTX replacement.

    rockdirect is selling their Xtreme 770s with it, it doesn't appear to be preorder. I forget what they use, but I think it's a Clevo, right?

    I don't think they say pre-order, but IIRC the ETA for shipping date is a ways away.
