Who's getting a new GTS?

Am interested in this.I think this may be the most pointless upgrade of my hardware career.

<---

Should be a reasonable upgrade from a 2900XT (or 2400 Pro at the moment since I sold the XT)

ssmacc · 7 Dec 2007 at 15:18

depends on price...

bushmins · 7 Dec 2007 at 15:23

When CoD4, Bioshock and The Witcher run perfect on my 7900GS, i cant even bring myself to go buy my reserved 8800GT KO, let alone a new GTS.

Waiting until the Next Big Thing here

Dreadi · 7 Dec 2007 at 15:38

nope, my gt is fine and cost less

ebilcake · 7 Dec 2007 at 15:52

8800GT to 8800 GTS 512MB is a very stupid upgrade, just save your money for something worthwhile.

Darkwave · 7 Dec 2007 at 15:55

I was considering it but 3fps in Crysis isn't worth it to me.

Mattus · 7 Dec 2007 at 15:59

Got the EVGA Crysis Edition 8800GT, so if EVGA accept the full price of the package and let me keep the game, I could get a nice cheap upgrade to the new GTS.

If it weren't for that possibility there's no way I'd do it, though.

Buckster · 7 Dec 2007 at 16:09

me -just ordered one

adrichardson81 · 7 Dec 2007 at 16:34

I'm getting one too. 320mb is too much of a bottleneck in DX10 games. Factor in the extra stream processors and the overclocking potential, and I reckon I'll getting near respectable frame rates in Crysis...

Sadgeek · 7 Dec 2007 at 16:37

I probably will, now that my 8800GT OC2 has gone back for refund (constant crashing), though I may wait until after Christmas.

I'm not worried about waiting for the 9x cards so hopefully the prices should be moving in the right direction.

C64 · 7 Dec 2007 at 16:37

I was dead set on it but upon reflection have decided to sit this one out it's just not enough of an upgrade to be worth the hassle this time.
But i can understand people who paid £150 for their GT selling it on for £180+ and getting a gts fully.

Pre-ordered one, but im so near presseing the cancel order button, it would only be good for a slight 3D mark 06 improvement in reality.

I didn't know it was a career now, how much are you on PA?

As for the GTS utterly pointless upgrade for you. Enjoy blowing your cash.

I'm sure we already have numerous threads like this from you? :confused:

Margaret · 7 Dec 2007 at 16:55

I'm not, I don't even care for graphics cards at the moment and having bought a 8800GT not long ago I'll be waiting until 2009 it seems.

There's not even any good games due out next year that I know of on PC except Alan Wake.

.:MBK:. · 7 Dec 2007 at 16:58

if the price is right i will, currently using a 2900XT so bit of a nice step up

Darren555 · 7 Dec 2007 at 17:00

Yeah looking to put one in my new build if the price is right

[PTG]shogun · 7 Dec 2007 at 17:35

Don't do it.

Don't cancel.

Lets be stupid together.
