As the title asks.

I want a 8800 GTS. But which make would be best?

Or does it not really matter?

I'll be running the games that i can on 3840 x 1024 or 2560 x 1024.

P.S. With Matrox Triplehead2go
 
He means evga's step up program

personally i would stear away from them as the step up programs a farce, they have overpriced cards and when new cards are released they have limited quantites available to step-up to, just have a look at theyre forums and you'll see how many people complain..
 
nVidia GeForce 8800GTS
Clock Speed 500Mhz
Memory 320mb DDR3 1.6Ghz (800Mhz DDR3)
Max Resolution 2560x1600

Although its gaming performance in that res will be terrible .... maybe he wants it for design work ?
 
how much faster is a 8800 gts over a 7800gt ?

just thinking about upgrading for ET, so I can pump up the AA/AF

a lot faster, i upgraded from an X1950 pro and the difference was a lot better than expected, i was getting around 160FPS avg on CSS, now i get 300+
 
i went from a 7900gt extreme to a bfg 8800gts and i gotta say the difference is unbelievable, able to crank up aa/af in games eg bf2 on max settings 90 fps, call of duty 2 everything set at its highest 60- 80 fps even considering im still using a single core cpu. plus the 8800gts is a pretty quiet card for its size
