First off, i'll start with the x1900 Series video card, this card should have 48 pipelines, and a speed of 650/1550. Prices range from $650-$900, depending on the version.

There is also word of nVidia's G80 core, but i dont know of any specs on that yet.

The next version of 3DMark is coming out tomorrow, called 3DMark06 (obviously). This version includes the SM3.0 technology, as well as HDR. It is also optimized for single and dual-core cpu's, so the X2 series (as well as others) will see a greater difference in this version then previous benchmarks.
