I was offered a 7800GT for $140 shipped and should be able to get $120 or so out of my 7600GT. I am wondering is it worth the extra $20 and hassle? Would I see much difference? This will be my last upgrade untill the first or sec gen of DX10 cards come. If I don't do this upgrade I'll likely hang on to the 7600GT till then. But if I will see little to no difference I hate to risk card arriving DOA and all that crap.
 
you'll probably see some small gains like 4-5fps maybe more. Imo its probably just better to stick with the 7600gt than going through the hassle of getting a 7800gt but it's your choice.
 
i had a 7800gt before i got my gtx and it played BF2 on my 19" widescreen no problem... i know its only 1440x900 but it is a really nice card. the 7600gt is a good card but IMO id get the 7800gt
 
decided to just hold off. To many cons and not enough pros. Like he had a RMA replacement(likely a refurb although it looked new), probably no warranty for me, risk of my card dieing when I sell and ship it, out about $30 after shipping mine, have to get a money order, ect, ect. For what? Just little to no noticable boost in performance.

Not to mention my 7600GT is still under warranty that I can replace if need to be. I might save up $50-80 and try to see if someone won't trade me a 7900GS which I should see a decent jump in performance.
