5 days left for Step-up...

The GT cards are just as fast and about $60-$80 cheaper.
The only diff I see between GT and GTS is the GTS has 128 streams while GT has 112.

Big difference??? Something tells me not much to justify more money.
The GTS card is also clocked a bit higher than the MSI 8800GT card for $189, but you could squeeze that out of the MSI card easily.
 
are you suggesting a step down? o noes??!?!?!?


no reason to upgrade to a gtx, as it'll cost too much for like 5% performance or whatever
 
You should hang in there, maybe with some stroke of luck the new cards are out around that timeframe... perhaps you can even talk to evga and they might just let you slide... even if you are a couple days out.
 
My step up ends in 3 days. I have 2 GTS512's and i'll be skipping the 9800 because even if the gx2 had launched in time, i'm not willing to pay 300+ to step up.
 
I have a 8800GTS 512 too.
My step up ends in 3 days but I'm glad theres nothing worth stepping up to,
Considering the cost difference between a 9800, shipping fee, physical work, the time without a video card isn't worth it imo

Imagine how many people would call if everyone call in to slide a few days:D:D:D
 
I thought about calling to ask about some leeway on the stepup window, but i just dont think the gx2 is going to be worth the price.
 
i agree completely. i was freaking out about my step-up ending before the 9800gx2 came out, until i realized that I'm perfectly happy with my gts 512, and that spending an extra 200 hundred dollars (which i don't have) just to have a card that I don't even need, is retarded. i'd say keep it and overclock it.
