Is there any point going for the GTX over the GTS (512mb version) if im only gaming at 1600X1200 on a 22"? Clearly have all the goodies on max. But if I only go to 1600X1200 any point in a gtx?

Cheers

i had an 8800 GTX and it was ok on my 22". The cards i have now produce a more stable and smoother framerate tho.
Dont expect to play crysis, i mean if you are getting a GTX or GTS just for that game dont bother :) it runs like crap on any setup at the moment tbh.

Otherwise, just get the GTS.. no point in spending more for something you probably wont notice in games out at the moment.

Not for any game in particular. I know nothing will run crysis any good at high res. Just general stuff like COD4 Test drive etc...

Are you talking about crysis?To be honest im not going to ever buy a card for a game, I want one as I need one to play everything. My cpu is a Q6600 at 3.6 (under water, so still only 47C load so can get more) Its my BFG 7300GTOC thats holding me back.
 
Even a GT is fine for a 22" monitor lol.. I'd just get a GT to tide you over, I dont really see much point in buying the X2 at the moment aswell, but then again if you have the money then might aswell.
 
3870 X2 better than a gtx? I have a fuzion block so was going to go with a 8800 series card. Yes want max detail in every game means all the goodies.lol What im really wanting to ask in this is:

Is there any point in a GTX if only at 22" 1600X1200?
