As the title says, which video card is better? eVGA e-GeForce 8800GT Superclocked 512MB http://www.mwave.com.au/newAU/mwaveAU/productdetail.asp?SKU=42021356 or Inno3D GeForce 8800GTS Overclocked 320MB 320-bit DDR3, Dual DVI, HDTV, PCI Express X16 interface, Fan, 570MHz Core Clock, 1800MHz Memory Clock (IV-8800GTS-320T) http://www.mwave.com.au/newAU/mwaveAU/productdetail.asp?SKU=42020835 Which one would play crysis or call of duty 4 better? =) Thanks in advance!
Agreed, the 8800GT is way better. It costs less, is faster than a GTS, takes up only 1 slot and is almost on par with a GTX for half the price.
=) thanks guys! I just have one more question tho. Are there any features of the Inno3D that are superior to the eVGA card? And will I still be able to play cysis with the Inno3D? I've got a quadcore that'll come with any of the video card. And also, I'm a noob when it comes to hardwares and I just want to be able to play games with little or no problem. Thanks again!
Crysis won't run very well at all with the Inno3D GTS because it doesn't have enough video RAM. It doesn't have any features that the eVGA board doesn't have, I assure you.
go with 8800 gt its great but only 256bit bus , u can go with 8800 gts but dont buy with 320mb, 640mb is more future proff and works better in high resolutions u wont go wrong with both of those cards they are amazing
From what I've seen the 8800GT outperforms the GTS even in Crysis, and considering its much lower price, the GT is what I'd recommend.
hmm, they work for me... They were pics of benchmarks in the Crysis demo at different resolutions. http://www.vr-zone.com/articles/Nvidia_GeForce_8800_GT_Review/5369-7.html
The reason I asked this is because I've already bought the Inno3D one =[ So, is there a way I could increase the memory, or make it better, apart from buying a new one LOL? Thanks again!
I can't =[ I've already asked if I could swap it, they said they can't. There's no other way of increasing its RAM now is there? I've heard that some video card "borrow" memory from the CPU or something. Is this the case for this Inno3D one?
No, it's only the case for the cheapest graphics cards as the process is intolerably slow. You could try selling the GTS second hand and buying the GT new, but second hand buyers may be wise to the market change...
How much you reckon I should sell it for? $300? I haven't used this or the computer that will use this at all, believe it or not. I'm still waiting for my custom built pc to arrive lol

Yay or nay? =) (Sorry i'm such an annoying bastard LOL)
Unfortunately you have the 320MB 8800GTS, which means although you'll be able to play Crysis fine, you may have to turn down the texture sizes quite a lot.
