Both are good. If equally priced I'd say its a tough call.

Some considerations: What games do you play, at what rez, do you plan to overclock, and are filters a priority?

Hmmmm. A dodgy decision.

If you purchase the 8800 and AMD/ATI keep improving their drivers and performances then it might leave you a little flat on your purchase.

If the two cards are really equal at the moment and there is untapped power still in these X2900 cards then obviously the 8800GTS isn't the wise choice?.

I say wise choice but no matter what, you will be walking away with a nice card.

Good luck in your purchase.
