In response to articles that have surfaced recently online, NVIDIA's Brian Burke disconfirmed the plans of the company to comercialize a GeForce 7800 GS PCI Express graphics card.

"NVIDIA provides boards to the developers for their in house game development. These boards are meant for the sole purpose of inhouse engineering and QA. In the case of the recent GeForce 7800 GS PCI Express reviews that you may have seen, some of these developer boards were mistakenly given out to end users at an event the developers sponsored. These boards were never meant to ship in the open market," Burke said.

"NVIDIA has no plans to release a commercially available GeForce 7800 GS PCI Express board. For any end users that many have received this board as a prize, NVIDIA will be happy to swap this out for a GeForce 7800 GT PCI Express board, or a GeForce 6800 GS PCI Express board, as these two boards are commercially available."
