Mac nVidia GeForce 7800 GT to ship in November?

Rumour has it that the Mac nVidia GeForce 7800 GT that is mentioned all over Apple's website, but which cannot be ordered at this time, may be shipping as early as November.

Considering how much faster this GPU is compared to the stock GeForce 6600 and 6600 LE, for some people the wait might be worth it. For those who don't need the extra GPU speedhowever, the good news is that initial reports state the 6600 series cards are fanless.

I just stumbled across Global computer selling the nVidia GeForce 7800 GT here:

On their website they show it as having Dual DVI and supporting HDTV with an additional HDTV connection. The Mac version does not seem to have this.
