Price For BFG 7800 GTX OC?

The reason for this being that looking at the price of the BFG 7950 GT OC (£205.61) maybe I could pick up around £200 for my BFG 7800 GTX and just get The BFG 7950 GT OC for a little more.

BFG 7800 GTX OC

Core Clock - 460mhz
Memory - 256GDDR3 at 1300mhz



BFG 7950 GT OC

Core Clock - 565mhz
Memory - 512GDDR3 at 1430mhz
£205.61


Both Sli ready and have full lifetime guarantee's.
 
here in the netherlands the 7800GTX's go for 200-250 Euro,.. so i think 200Pound for one is a bit optimistic :)
 
around how much do you think I would get for it? I paid £370 when I got it and the one on that ebay listing is £315, but it is new. I can't seem to find the same card on internet stores.
 
its still 315 pounds new on ebay in the UK? :eek:
then 200 pound is pretty much a good price i think, (when i sould my grafic's card's.. i alway's used about 2/3 of the'price it would cost new at that moment. and when i look around, that price is slightly lower than what most people want for their's... meaning it sell's rather quick )

but, considering that new price in the UK,. i think 200 is a good price, (maybe you can get a bit more) sorry for not having my fac's straight, but i cant go on ebay here,.. site's blocked. :(
 
Oh right, no worries about that. I just needed a few opinions on how much I could get because I couldnt find the card for sale anywhere, and I just couldn't understand why I could pick up a BFG 7950 GT OC for £205.61 when I could probably get the same for my current card. Also, the one on ebay that is £315 new that I linked to on the first post of this thread was the only one on ebay too.

Sorry, correction it is £325 with £15 delivery, so thats even more than I first stated. (£340)

the 7950 gt oc has a faster core clock, faster memory and twice the size of the memory, both have lifetime guarantee's and they both will work in SLI mode.
 
yes... but that are the specs on the different cores?
Pipelines, shaders etc?
only clock speeds doesnt say much i think :)

That is all I can find for now, the 7950 GT seems to be better for everything but it does say that the 7950 GT is Built for Microsoft Windows Vista. That shouldn't have a problem running on other OS's will it? (XP x64)
 
thanks, ill place it up in the selling section then.
another thing, the cards are manufactured by BFG Technologies, on the Video Card Comparison they are based on standard cards, im not sure if this would see a change in the pipelines and shaders but the 7950 is definatly the better card.
