Default 8800gts 640

i havnt been up to date with the new 8800

how big is the differnce between a 8800 gt and a 8800gts 640mb


Also would 2 8800gt be significantly better then the 8800gts or around there.

if i waited till now i would of got 2 6600gts instead of a 8800gts since i never tried sli out

two GT's will outperform a single Ultra, though i dont think SLI is worth it. A single GT will beat a GTS. On the 3rd the new GTS's are going to be released.

Yeah, it whoops the current GTS's... but the new GTS with the G92 chip will outperform the GT obviously.. will be released on the 3rd (512 and 1gb versions)

I might have worded the first post wrong

I'm not sure why the 8800GT is cheaper, but I'm not complaining haha

Anyways, go with the 8800GT..it's cheaper and better...you don't see that very often.
