Simple version. You have a PCIe X16 slot that only has 8 lanes instead of 16 plus its not PCIe 2.0. So both factors together might hinder the performance of the card. But to say you would get better performance with a 8800GTS 640mb card is completely unknown and stupid to say.

Humans are curious creatures and by nature insane. Lock us all in a room together and within hours we're dividing into groups, creating Gods and plotting on how to kill one another.
