I think thats covered in one of the other 13 8800GT threads.

IBL, just buy a non overclocked card and overclock the bejesus out of it, no need to pay a premium for something you can easily achieve yourself.

Even if you don't, it's still as fast as a GTX and they're £300.

That's why I'm selling my GTX and waiting for my new GT.

Not quite, they are nearly there but a GTX still wins.

Considering the price difference I would call the extra couple of FPS neck and neck.

I'll happily sacrifice 3fps to get £100 back from buying the wrong card.

yep

i would agree with the ratio i have seen on here before

8800 ultra = 100%

8800 gtx = 90%

8800 gts = 80%

8800 Gt 80-85%

Yet another 8800gt thread yawn all we need now is **The Official 8800gt Appreciation Thread** and we'll have a full set.
How about The 8800gt thread for 8800gt owners thread

Thats made me chuckle.

In truth, the GT is such a remarkable card from Nvidia, all this attention its getting is fully warranted.

Looks more like the GT kicks the GTS's head in from where I'm standing.

Looks super-close in these GT vs. GTX benchmarks too, I'd call it even considering the price difference we're talking about. Interesting to see the GTX owners who haven't yet sold up on the defensive though.
