It's weird I can't find any tests with different graphics card setups. Would have thought there would have been a few showing things like 8800GTX single and in SLI as well as other cards performance.

Maybe I'm just not finding them? :confused:

"The GeForce 8800 GT is a very fast video card, and even faster in SLI. The 512 MB memory capacity could be a bottleneck for this video card in SLI. It will have a lot of performance to push pixels and textures at high resolutions with AA but it may not have the memory capacity to handle it. We’ve seen that at 2560x1600 the GT in SLI still chokes with 2X AA in UT3, but went on to match the single GTX and Ultra in performance. However, when we took the GT SLI down to 1920x1200 in UT3, where it wasn’t being memory bottlenecked, the framerates in SLI skyrocketed past the single GeForce 8800 Ultra.


If the future of DX10 games benefits from a greater memory capacity, as has been the trend we have seen, this video card could run into bottlenecks with SLI. It is something we will have to keep testing on new games. Once Crysis is out with SLI support it will be interesting to see how it performs."
 
Other DX10 games got like a 30% boost over the gtx at 25x19, thats compared to the gt being 15%-20% worse than the gtx at that res, looks quite promising for crysis.
 
Certainly is, Crysis is making me want to buy something now.

But its just not viable for me atm, aarrgghhhh!


Lets see these GTS's Nvidia!
 
Here's a review of the 8800GT compared to other cards and a test on Crysis.

I was shocked that the 8800GTX under performed on Crysis as my 7900GTX allows me to play with most settings on High at 1024x768 with no AA and its pretty smooth. I'm happy to give this to my son to play with.

I have a 7900GTX and will be going for the 8800G asap.
