    8800gs or HD3870!!!

    Gigabyte sells a ~$200 version of the HD3870 that comes with HD3870 core speeds but paired with DDR3 memory and a Zalman fan.

    Yeah, the HD3870 makes more sense.

    Hey, thanks for the advice. I was only comparing them, because I currently have both on hand.

    8800gs or HD3870!!!

    Before I return, I plan on at least running 3dmark06 and few games to at least prove to myself that the HD3870 is superior. I'll post results here.

    8800gs or HD3870!!!

    Thanks. :(No chance to cancel order now. Already shipped. Not sure if I'll ever crossfire or SLI, but I can't combine different 8800 cards? I have been kicking myself over this for being so damn impulsive.

    8800gs or HD3870!!!

    I recently bought an HD3870 from Gigabyte. The card only has GDDR3 memory in it. I am wondering if an 8800gs would be better. I actually already compulsively ordered the 8800gs, but I am :confused:wondering which one I should keep.

    1st time builder on a budget!

    I bought a board that didn't support quad core, because I figured that a new socket would come out before I needed it. I think Intel is moving the memory controller to inside the CPU later this year, so I think a new socket will come out then.
