    Hey all :D , I have the chance to snap up 2 XFX GeForce 9600GT for just over 100 pounds.

    My question is, is it worth it for me to replace my 8800 gtx with these 2 cards? will there be a majour increase in games or none at all?

    I have an xfx 680i sli board
    3gb corsair dominator
    and a q6600 processor.

    I would apreciate any comments ASAP because the offer wont be there long. Thanks

    That upgrade should give you about 70-80% increase in video performance. I'm not sure it would be worth the 100 pounds, as you can probably get a second 9600GT for less than that...and a pair of 9600's will be faster than a pair of 8800's.
