worth upgrading from 8800gtx to 260gtx for 1650x1080?

I might have to do some cable re-arranging replaced my 8800gt with a 260gtx yesterday I had to place it in a different/bottom PCIe slot as the sata cables are in the way it was a lot bigger than my 8800gt.
 
Not really had long to test them but a quick 3dmark vantage run gave me 10938 with [email protected] which is OK considering there at stock, only games tested so far are Crysis and COD4, Crysis wasnt even playable at the same settings I used on my GTX280, framerate drops were allot worse, COD4 felt was about the same but it stuttered a little and screen flickered, tried to start some UT3 but got a BSOD, and then another after restarting..

Might do a reinstall of vista tomorrow if I get the time.


Somethings wrong there I have 2 4850s in crossfire and I can play crysis on high and its perfectly fine

And cod4 runs like a dream no frame rate drop at all and im on vista

Was using a mix of high and very high, didn't cope well, COD4 was fine after I reinstalled the drivers, but's like comparing 120fps to 100fps, the game just isnt very demanding to these cards.
