[reddevil6]

i know the 8800GT is better, but cant the 3870 OC to be faster?
i am just so stuck on what one to get.
i am buying in 3 days.
please help me.

I would say that I would pick the 8800 because it is better and more known, also I prefer nvidia .

I don't know about how much they both can overclock, will have to wait for a post.

get the 8800GT. its decently faster so that would probably make up for any gain the other one might have in overclocking.

 

[Kornowski]

Yeah, I say go with the 8800GT too!

 

[hpi]

8800GT imo.
