GeForce 8800GT 512meg - Whose getting one?

[o'dium]

A nice DX10 card, not the best performance but still, all for £170? Count me in, I need a new GPU and I cant be arsed to pay above the odds for something that will be dead in a years time or too old.

£170 is a fantastic price.

Anybody thinking of picking one up? They launched today.

I have a 8800 GTX

So no i wont...

[o'dium]

I was gonna get one of them, but the price difference is a lot, and the GT is 3%* slower... So I think I'll manage with the GT

*toms hardware reckons anyway...

I have more memory than you!

It seems too good to be true

[o'dium]

Yup, thats what worries me... What hidden surprises await...

[seremtan]

the downside of SLI is needing to always buy two of every GPU

the upside is then having two GPUs

[scared?]

bout about all the games that don't support 2 gpu's? and what about just buying 1 card thats as fast or faster than two? unless ur amoron...

"all the games that don't support 2 gpu's"

i.e. almost no modern games whatsoever

"1 card that's fast or faster than two"

yeah cos 2 x 8800GTX obviously isn't faster than one, if ur a moron...

I have the 8800 Ultra

[SoM]

SLI is worth fuck all if you're not gonna play at resolutions higher than 1600x1200.

And I'm happy with my 8800GTS 320 atm

[plained]

i think if you put one of these in a f150 you got a real dangerous rig right thur!

according to the benchmarks i've seen, 8800GTS in SLI outperfoms the 8800GTX single card, though not by much, and that's at 1600x1200 or less. the single GTX is slightly cheaper though...
