7800 GTX VS 6800 GT? which is better

[Geoff]

yes, you dont need to upgrade your video card, you shouldnt need to for at least a year.

 

[Praetor]

so you think for what I need there is no need to upgrade?

Well do YOU think you need an upgrade?

 

[lokodezine]

if i had the GT or 7800 GTX will those cards be able to handle games being pushed out for say 3-4 yrs to come?

 

[Archangel]

well.. i wont upgrade till this card can take the newes games anymore.. then ill consides upgrading.. a 6800GT runns everything on high atm.. so why upgrade?

 

[GhostEye]

in 3-4 years that card MIGHT be able to run games on low.... Hardware changes extremely fast

 

[Archangel]

well.. if you call 3 years fast..

 

[GhostEye]

did I?

in 3-4 years that card MIGHT be able to run games on low.... Hardware changes extremely fast

thats the way most peaople will understand that

 

[lokodezine]

I called up Dell but they cant change it since my xps 5 is now replaced with xps 6. SO Im stuck with a 6800... should I upgrade immedietly to a GT or run out the 6800

 

[GhostEye]

run out the 6800, it realy isnt worth the cash right now to up to the 7800. the performance wont be huge OMG difference. and they both will have similiar life spans. just save the cash for ur next gfx card in a year or so~

 

[Modoman]

by the time the 6800 runs out, there will be cheaper and way more advanced cards out.. use it till you cant anymore
