How much better is the 880GT better than the 8800GTS?

how much better is the 880GT better than the 8800GTS 640MB?

Depends on resolution and whether aa is used or not.

If you already have an 8800gts 640 you should just overclock it and you will have the same if not better performance than an 8800gt. 8800gt smashes 320mb 8800gts but just beats 640mb 8800gts in many of the tests.

If you want to upgrade rather wait for the 9 series cards.

how much do u think a 500watt power supply will cost on average? 'cause i just bought a 8800gts 640mb and my power supply is only 350watts
 
I upgraded my system in Dec 2007 and purchased a 8800GT, installed it on a dual rail 450W Aopen, and all ran fine. I upgraded my PSU to an 550W ODIN GT over the weekend just to be on the safe side. About the comparison between the 8800GT and GTS...a friend of mine has the 8800GTS running on 3GB ram and XP. Mine, 3GB ram running on DX10 and Vista. I got 160 marks more than him on 3DMARK06 running at stock clocks.
 
do we care?

carderne im thinking of making a 9600gt thread plz go and search the entire forum to see if there is a thread plz :)

X dude what cpu do you have and what cpu does he have?
 
running on same CPU. E6550 on MSI P6N Sli. Could be the fact that the MSI 8800GT comes OC'd out of the box already.
 
Interresting. Maybe i'm doing something wrong somewhere. Does 10387 sound like a descent score for a E6550, MSI P6N Sli, 3GB DDR800, MSI nx8800GT all running on stock clocks and Vista? Sounds like you know more about this than me...
 
thats seem very low man

i have a quadcore and 3850 and i get 10700 stock

run 3dmark and give me the 3 scores when it finishes

i will run mine with a 3850 and give you mine

2GB Mushkin EM2 @ 4-5-4-12 850MHz
GeForce 8800GTS @ 660/1500/1950 (GPU/Shader/Memory)

Windows XP Pro SP3 RC

3DMark Score	[B]11218 3DMarks[/B]
SM2.0 Score	5 K
HDR/SM3.0 Score	5 K
CPU Score	2497

All default 3DMark06 Settings.
GFx Driver Version 6.14.11.6921

PS: I dunno why 3Dmark saved the SM2 and HDR scores as "5 K" in the Excel file.

Does this mean OC 8800GTS > 8800GT? :p
 
yea your cpu is a major problem there x

try overclocking it a bit or get a quadcore man

that cpu score is shockingly low
 
yeah, seems to be the bottle neck. My board support Quad, so i might have to look into that. The board, as per reviews, is a good overclocker....maybe i'll give that a go first.
