"Samsung stated that it will have 512Mb GDDR3 SDRAM chips for production early next year. The new memory operates on 1.8V, a .7V decrease from the GDDR2 specifications, and provides for higher clock speeds and an aggregate bandwidth of 6.4GBps.

The best video cards from ATI and Nvidia currently have 256MB of GDDR3 memory. With ever increasing texture sizes, antialiasing settings and overall graphical complexity, it seems fairly certain that next generation video cards will be released with 512MB of GDDR3 memory."

it'll probably be a while before the average Joe can afford one. hopefully there will be a HUGE price drop by the time i build my next system.
