Despite what nVidia told us
before, the GeForce 6800LE will be a retail card. When we wrote about this last
July, nVidia immediately
picked up the blower to inform us that this won't happen. Well, it has
happened.
 6800LE to hit retail shelves
We spotted this card then in Aldi and Lidl food chain PCs... Retail 6800LE card will be clocked to a 6800 standard speed, a 325MHz core and 700MHz DDR-1 memory. A 6800LE will have eight pipelines while the 6800 standard has twelve. Both cards are equipped with 128 MB of DDR-1 memory.
Some of these cards are already available in European shops and they cost from €250 to €300. These are already available from AOpen, Gainward, MSI and Leadtek.
What made nVidia change its mind? The fickle finger of fate?
