8600GT SLI or 9800GTX?

A single 9800GTX would be the better choice but the 8800GTS (512MB) performs almost the same for ~$75 less
 
I have a single 8600gt and love it but, the 9800 single would kill a 8600gt sli setup! I hate to say it but its true. New technology now days
 
i am not satisfied with my single 8600gt. I get like 20-50fps in counter-strike. I think my CPU is the reason why i get poor fps though. What fps do u get racer in what games, if you do play games.

Seems to me you have something wrong with your computer.

When I had Intel Integrated X3000 chipset, I was only able to run America's Army v. 2.8.3.1 in normal/low settings with fps ranging from 20-40.

And I'm really sure that America's Army requires a higher card then CounterStrike.

I'm quite confident something is wrong with my computer. I think my CPU is causing me to have such bad FPS. CPUz says its core speed is running at 1004.5 MHz.

yeah. your speed will shoot back up in a quarter of a millisecond back to normal speeds the moment something comes up.
 
yeah no contest. 8600gt is so tiny performance to start with. two 8600gt can still not compete with 9800gtx.

two 8600gt is two kia car
one 9800 gtx is one viper car

two 8600gts might be two eclipes car though (thouight of getting 8600gts myself)



two 3850 might be a better chance against one 9800gtx but still cannot defeat.
