Hey now that i read this. i know that 8800GT 512 is still the best when it comes to midrange resolutions in terms of price to performance ratio. The extra 512MB of memory to the 8800GT will only benefit it by a small margin (high reso, high settings etc.), not to mention the huge price you be paying to fit that memory in. Its simply not worth it to get the 1024MB version because of the price you pay to get that boost.

Imo, you wont see much of a performance difference. However, simply being able to keep more of cache in VRAM instead of being swapped out into the RAM/HDD is a massive boon in my books, helping keep cache stuttering to an absolute minimum.

Some people have posted that flight sims can make use of the 1gb in an SLI setup.. But an SLI card with 2x512mb is effectively a 512mb card. Everything has to be duplicated in the memory of BOTH cards.

This review was really well done, the best comparison I’ve found. It’s important to remember that the amount of VRAM isn’t a variable that affects performance in the way that clock speed does. It’s either a bottleneck for a given game, or it isn’t. Kudos to the reviewer for realizing this and subjecting the cards to a wide range of tests.

I’ve decided to get a 1gb 8800GT to replace the 512 that I’m RMAing.It’s worth it for games to have the space for textures and other data IMO, rather than swapping to RAM. At 1920×1200, with 4xAA, even older games like BF2 and BF2142 swap textures. Even if benchmarks don’t show much difference for most games, if textures swap, you’ll get a slowdown for a short time, which is more noticeable than the small drop in avg framerate would indicate.

I recommend running Rivatuner to find out how much VRAM is used by each game.

Why not clock the lesser cards up to make the test interesting. To have use of 1gb video one need as much power possible for sure

To G : Did you test SLI 8800GT 512 vs 7950GX2 ? … considering the price of the 7950, we could buy more than 2 8800GT for the same price …

Thanks so much for the benchmarks! Now I understand why the 256 GT struggles with AA and AF on at 1680 x 1050 and I will get a 3850 512 to swap it with asap.
