First Radeon X1950XTX should be available to the re-entry. They will use memory GDDR4 and will be more powerful than the current X1900XTX from approximately 7%. Lastly, the system of cooling would be less noisy.
Approximate price should be ~400 Euro

[quote]I want to see ATI will make a Vid Card that rivals Nvidia'a Dual GPU 7950 GX2[/quote[

I still stick with ATI. I have experiences on both VCs but I still say ATI has better image quality
not only in games but also on windows desktop. ATI's graphics and image quality is way sharper than NVidia.

Althouh NVidia is a little bit tini unoticably faster than ATI on Doom 3 game, well Id still go for
the image quality of ATI which is sharper and more vibrant.

Well with this new x1950 well just see just wait for the reviews.

NVIDIA QUAD SLI VERSUS ATI CrossFire

DailyTech has received early benchmarks of ATI’s upcoming Radeon X1950XTX and X1950 CrossFire graphics cards. ATI’s upcoming Radeon X1950XTX and X1950 CrossFire is expected to make its debut on August 23rd. Specifications for the Radeon X1950XTX and X1950 CrossFire are finalized with a 650 MHz core clock and 2 GHz effective memory clock. The core clock is unchanged from the previous Radeon X1900XTX while memory clock receives a hefty 550 MHz boost. This time around the Radeon X1950XTX and X1950 CrossFire are equipped with 90nm Samsung GDDR4 memory.

These early benchmarks are favorable to ATI. Call of Duty 2, Half-Life 2: Episode 1 and Serious Sam II heavily favor ATI, most likely due to better multi-GPU scaling on ATI’s side. FarCry, Quake 4 and Doom 3 performance shows the Quad SLI system creeping up to the performance of ATI’s X1950XTX/CrossFire system. However, the Quad SLI system still falls behind, close but no cigar. F.E.A.R. is the only game that can take advantage of Quad SLI and shows the Quad SLI system beating out the similarly configured X1950XTX/CrossFire system; though at 2560x1600 with 4xAA and 8xAF the X1950XTX/CrossFire takes the lead once again. With Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion the X1950XTX/CrossFire system manages to take a nice lead over Quad SLI at 1600x1200 with 8xAF. The lead narrows when the resolution is raised to 2560x1600 with 8xAF.

performance is 7% only NOTHING impressive BUT! with the release of X1950 the price drop on the X1900XT is large, its now a $310 card

I've seen some user made Quad SLI vs X1900XTX-CF @ 1950XTX clockspeeds, the Quad SLI comesout on top.
Crossfire technology still needs a lot of improvements compared to SLI.
