You guys fail to give me proof that a 2600XT will pwn the 8600 GT.

well i'm not saying its gonna pwn but it will be the better price/performance ratio from the sounds of the pricing scheme,, it scored about the same in 3dmark06 as the 8600 supposedly but wait till it comes out and we'll know for sure.
