The older 8800gts 320 is discontinued, the 8800gt will take its place and a newer 8800gts 640 will come by the 19 nov.

Expect the new 8800gts to outperform the gtx.

Don't you love the world of technology? heh, don't feel alone in this, most people on these boards are feeling the "scam." My friend just got a GTS 3 weeks ago, atleast mine has a few months on it.

Yeah I knew it was gonna happened but damn... I was blinded by crysis :(.

Oh well its still a good card and it will probably be my last upgrade, somethings telling me things are going "console" too often these days for me to spend 2x the amount on an upgrade would be very un-smart :P

But we've known this card was coming for months, and that it was going to be the mainstream part of the next range. Of course the mainstream part of the next range is basically the same as the high end of the current range - happens every year. An 8600GT is basically the same as the old 7800GTX...Only the naive (I was arguing with somebody about this last night on GS) expect their 12month old gfx card to remain king another 6months.

I suspect these benchmarks ARE a little off - the GTX and the Ultra are too close, suggesting a CPU bottleneck.

I'm happy with my 8800GTS 640MB I got back in March... it runs UT3 well (60+ fps at high settings at a nice rez)... Come next summer I'll be due for an upgrade, though :)

Since the GTS is so close to the 2900PRO at lower resolutions... it doesn't make any sense for Nvidia to release a card that is better and cheaper than their high end card. I guess I'm somewhat self-ish, but I'm glad to see that not only the 8800GTS 320mb people are getting screwed.

maybe if we saw 16x12 and higher we would really know the performance of the cards over eachother. At 12x10, the games are more CPU dependant.

If you have EVGA you can. It says "Better Performing Card" which pretty much opens any card up for debate. I can't mine expired today =(

The new 8800gts 640 will cost USD$305

That is WAY too good to be true. I wish I could believe this, but I am believing it. But how are benchmarks up before the card didn't even come out yet?

daaayuum!

i'm so glad that i didn't rush out and get an 8800GTS or the 2900PRO! it looks like patience really does pay off! :) and if these benchmarks are true, then I'll prolly end up going with the 8800GT 512mb. Is it going to be DX 10.1 compatible?

Take this with a big pinch of salt-the 8800GTS 640mb would be unlikely to only get 0.76 FPS more than the 320mb. This test smells fishy to me.

Come on guys, this is a fake benchmark

1. the cards isnt out yet.

2. no way will it be better then the GTX and cost half the price of it. that would make no sense for nvidia to do

3. the new GTS is suppose to remain better then the GT but will only have 112sp, where as the GTX has 128. My point is if the 8800 GTS is better then the GT but still not better than the GTX that pretty much proves that the GT wont be better than a GTX. GET IT??!

This is pretty common. It usually only does a LITTLE better than the 320MB. A simple CPU bottleneck would explain why it is .75FPS more vs 2FPS more. ;)

wklzip, I'm not going to call foul on you, it's just that the site you linked doesn't seem to echo what anandtech is saying.

Plus, at 12x10, the game is more CPU bottlenecked.

First don't compare shaders across architecture, GT shaders are the same as GTS, they are even clocked higher. Second, the GT has high enough mem clocks to offset the difference. Think about it why would Nvidia not launch a more powerful card almost a year later? Remember the 7900GT vs 7800GTX, the GT was cheaper and faster.

we will see

yes it would have been the faster one ifthe named it 8900gt as u said the 7900gt was faster then 7800gtx why because it's 7900gt not 7800gt

well its ultimately its Nvidia's decision to name their products, the names are still more or less speculation, it still could be 8900 or 8850.

I dunno about that... 58 vs 64...
I mean it is pretty close and you could easily overclock the GT to get the same bandwidth as a stock GTS but the thing is, it doesn't really look like either card is really bandwidth limited.

I don't really know whats going on with the Nvida cards does it go Ultra>8800GT>8800GTX ? And also does anyone know the general area of the price for the 8800 GT?

Logicaly it would be Ultra > GTX > GTS > GT.

But if these benchmarks appear to be true, then it is as you said. Although I have no doubt in my mind that this is a fake benchmark.
