8800gts 320 Replacement

[JIM_BOB7813]

My Point of View 8800gts 320 has just died on me and I need an equivalent replacement. I don't want an upgrade, just something that works as fast and as quiet as this thing used to.

Cheers

Or 8800GT 512MB:

Personally I would go for the 8800GT, as it is 65nm instead of 8800GTS 320MB's 90nm, so should be lower temp...not to mention it's faster and quite overclockable as well.

Hmm, the problem with those is the 3 month warranty. This one lasted just over 3 years and I never overclocked it, I really looked after it (underclocked at 2d and custom fan profiles).

Are there any modern cards of similar price and performance?

Well, one reason why those Grade A cards are cheaper than they should is because they are the way they are and only with 3 months warranty...if you want to buy new with two years warranty (it will cost more), then:

9800GT:

or 4850:

Hi Jim I have just purchased a 4890 to replace my fully working 8800GT 512MB I am sure its the 512MB one.

My mate I got it from said its the fastest 8800GT there is it comes factory overclocked.

I am selling it I will offer you first dibs if you wish other wise I am putting it on the Bay or MM here.

I am asking £45 INC P&P providing you don't live far like India hahahaha.

Thanks for the kind offer but I'm looking to buy new.

Just go for the 9800 GT then, cheapest option which is at least as powerful as your old card and comes with a full warranty.
