Help needed quickly!!

Hi, im currently running 2 8800 gtx in an sli configuration and a fella I know has offered me 2 9800 gtx, will i see a big improvment with these new cards? All help is appreciated.

No, you would see less performance as you would be downgrading, the 9800 GTX's are only old 8800 GTS 512mbs.

cheers for that, i will tell no then, just out of interest what price do you think would have been fair for those cards?

 

[ian|Squared²]

used maybe £150-£170 for the pair, they are really good cards still

lol "giving" to you, that is lucky, but you have decent cards now so why...you could take them off his/her hands and sell them I suppose. but thats not very nice

 

[ChrisLandin]

[AMG]

[ChrisLandin]

Probably more like £120-140, HD4870's go for around £80.

they start from about 85 I think for the oem up to about £154-5 for the special vopour 2Gb onces on OCuk
