The extra 50 bucks or so for the 8800GTS 320 MB is definetly worth the more than 3 times performance of a single 8600.

The 8600 is $100, or even less with MIR. The 8800GTS 320MB is $260 with MIR. Are you sure they taught you math when you went to school?

Well its probably because I didn't look on Newegg. Best Buy and Fry's Electronics are selling them for like 200, which is retarded.

Bestbuy is also selling the 8800 for $300. Which still doesn't equate to $50 more. It's still 100 dollars more, especially with tax.

LOL you must want to be a dick getting into the particulars.

8600 for $200, $229.99 normally at Best Buy

I bought my 8800GTS on sale for 280.00 (before tax of course) at Fry's Electronics. So yes indeed, I did spend just over $50 more for 3x the performance. I'm not one for online shopping really...............

That's a little stupid. Since you can get the card on newegg for $100. Why would you compare the most expensive 8600 to the 8800s price tag. That just doesn't make any sense. You compare cheapest to cheapest.

I somehow don't believe 60FPS. Some guy at Gamefaqs has a 7950X2 or something and he says he gets like 30 fps on high...What is you rig?

I have a Athlon 64 3800+ 2.4Ghz, with 1GB of DDR2 and an EVGA 8600 GTS 256mb on Vista and it runs alright. Actually it seems that the more AA I have the more smooth it runs. I know that sounds crazy but it's true. I had everything set to low and it ran terrible, then I maxed everything out and it smoothed out a bit. I definitely need more RAM though!
