G80 VS G92: Med to high end GeForce GFX cards round-up!
â—† Final thought
8800GTX
　　
8800GTS
8800Ultra
These G80 cards are only 10-17 months old, but they are already retired, in another words, EOLed. Also, their position have been moved to lower lower level.
Of course, these does not means you should throw them away, because they can run the latest game quite well. The only focus of this round-up is to put them into their right position in today’s nVIDIA product line.
　　9600GT 256MB ≈ 8800GS 384MB ≈ 8800GTS 320MB < 9600GT 512MB ≈ 8800GS 768MB ≈ 8800GTS 640MB < 8800GT 512MB < 8800GTS 512MB < 8800GTX 768MB < 8800Ultra 768MB < 9800GX2 1024MB

If i were to build a monster pc right now i’d much rather get three 9800 GTXs against two GX2s, and for about the same price.

I hope you will do the comparison between : 9800GTX vs 8800GTX vs 8800GTS

Ajai, because it’s a G80 vs G92 article, and the ATI cards really suck wind when you enable AA/AF. Even the 3870X2 can’t stand up to G92 GTS. The HD3XXX series just cannot compete.

the only reason why the g80 gts 320mb did so bad was that it was not overclocked at all.
What a shame.

[…] The card’s performance and price are similar to 9600GT’s. (Related: G80 VS G92, med to high end GFX cards round-up). So NV is going to change the name of GeForce 8800GS to 9600GSO, in order to Classify the card […]

[…] http://en.expreview.com/2008/04/02/g…nd-up/?page=10 9600gt and the 8800gts will perform quite similarly tho 9600gt will consume much less power,but it is worth getting the 8800gt for 20-30$ more. __________________ I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned I believe you can’t appreciate real love ’til you’ve been burned I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side I believe you don’t know what you’ve got until you say goodbye […]

Please remember that three 9800 gtx’s only produces about 1.5 teraflops of possible performance where two 9800 gx2’s produce 2 teraflops of performance. So u cant really even compare the two.
Plus the possibility to add another 9800 gx2 for a total of 3Gb of frame buffer and 3 teraflops of performance.
Thats not even comparing the number of stream processors available.
The teraflops talk is directly correlated with the number of stream processors. Where each card has 128 stream processors, the gx2’s having 256 stream processor per card, 3*256 = 768 stream processors, where the 9800 gtx (three of them) would only be 384.
Obviously there is the added cost:-)

Steven,
You obviously know absolutely nothing about this. Stop lying and making shit up and google the facts quickly. You are spreading incorrect information and probably confusing people like yourself who actually did take the time to google before posting.
