EVGA 8800 GS

Interesting, it looks to have a fair bit more shader performance than the old GTS cards. But the memory bandwith looks low. The ammt of memory indicates they have an odd bus on the card, but it must still be under 256 bit judging by the bandwith they list.

Will be interesting to see how this pans out, seeing that the GT and GTS don't seem to have quite enough memory bandwith for their speed, this may have a similar story.
 
I believe nvidia soft launched the card last month, their was almost no talk of it on here. Basically G92 with 96 SPs, 192bit mem bus, 384MB of memory, basically to compete with the 3850.
 
The more i look at it and think about it, it is probably going to be pretty cheap - and rightfully so because it probably isnt going to come close to even a 8800gt - which is sad because my 7900 gs is a beast
 
Wow, that's pretty pointless. Nvidia released this to be a short time competitor to the 3850, until the 9600gt comes out. Yet, the 8800gs performs under the 8800gts 320, while the 3850 512mb outperforms the 8800gts 320.
 
The XFX OC'd one seems to be equivalent to the 3870 :eek:

We'll see about the price though.
