I just placed an order on this card for € 402: http://www.bfgtech.com/8800GTSOC_640_PCIe.html There is not a single review available, but do you guys think that this card is very close to 8800GTX performance, or not? I was planning on buying the 8600 Ultra, but I won a cellphone and by selling that cellphone, my budget got a little boost :ying:
the 8800GTS and 8800GTX got reviewed together here on guru3d. The benchmarks they ran suggested that the GTS was around 25% slower on performance than the GTX. That may sound a lot, but really when you put it into context, the GTS is still an awesome card. It will play anything you can throw at it at decent resolutions for a good couple of years. Plus it's a cheap (ish) ticket to DX10!
yea that is a great card u'll enjoy all of ur games with lots of eye candy and now ur ready for dx10 and u can always sli them later on
I think I payed a good price for an OC card. The normal GTS costs € 485 in the local shops, now I pay € 402 for an OC version. I love USA prices!
510$. It costs a lot of money to send it to the other side of the world. But still, cheaper then buying it in my own country...
that's still not bad. i paid 569.00 cdn for mine the day they hit the net. they're 449.00 now tho lol
In my country the normal GTS costs 590 and I payed 510 for an OC version, so like I sad, it's a deal for me
