I just read the review, is it some sort of new technology, that I do not see any vertex shaders informations on any Gf 8xxx series cards? It seems like now they have this stream processors thingy, how does it differ? At first I was shocked as some shop label it wrongly in their pricelist at geforce8800gtx has 128 pixel pipelines
