8800GT is better than GTS btw

GT 512 MB > GTS 320 or 640 MB (g80 technology)

but

GT 512 MB < GTS 512 MB (g92 technology)

yes you are right but it's around 5 fps more, and it pwns, except for games such as far cry & crysis :O

nah far cry ins't a problem for this card, crysis sucks a bit (you can't play it on full graf or so but nothing spec)

Not taking ATi is a retarded choice :P.

anyway, the 9800GTX+ is really better than the 8800GTS

GTX 260 - 300euro
▼
chelmianin 8 Dec 2008, 21:04
he wants something for 200 euros and you are saying he should buy GTX 260 for 300? mhm... I think 3xGTX 280 would be a better choice! ofc + nforce 790i/ultra motherboard

pala 8 Dec 2008, 21:11
he didnt say his budget is 200 euros :P
Parent
▼
chelmianin 8 Dec 2008, 21:13
he didn't, but he didn't ask about some other (more expensive) gfx, so I think he only wants to know which one is a better choice :P

anyway, I can be wrong
