Ok...so Ive had my head buried...what is this new 8800GT card?

Ive been holding out for the GTX to come down in price and this new card sneaks in on me...

Generally speaking....

Does it blow away the GTS? come close to the GTX? for 3 bills?

I was planning on dropping 5 benjamins, should I wait for the 92 series...which is what I was kinda doing anyway....anyone have an ETA on the 92?


8800GTX expected to drop? Substantially?


What to do...what to do.....
Thanks for your replies...

Thanks man....

This was an interesting addendum added to the conclusion of that review...

UPDATE - 10/29/07-8:29am: A very interesting addendum to this. I just got off the phone with BFG Tech and NVIDIA has been doing some strange things lately. As of this morning, the GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB (unsure on the 320MB) will have its stream processors officially increased to 112, the same as the GT. This should put the GTS back ahead of the GT as per the paper specs. However, the separation in the products is still going to be very small except for those of you wanting to run high resolutions with AA turned on. To do that you are still going to need a $400+ video card..or so. Our new spec GTS is on the way to us now and we will of course be updating you. Given the GT's faster clocks and possibly larger texture unit, we will have to wait and see. Undoubtedly though, the 8800 GT remains a stellar value at the expected price points.
