no if you want real results go look at some benchmarks those so called "best bang for your bucks" charts are so off its not even funnyhowever the value difference are only alittle if u compare the first few.
this may not be accurate but it must roughly give us an idea which is worth which isnt.

wow that chart is lame instead of doing it by frames which is what we REALLY care about they do it by a program score thats real smart :| so basically there happy that they have the best score for price when really no one cares mastershake575
3dmark is pretty accurately indicative of general gaming performance. Obviously some games will have a different demographic than 3dmark, but a card that does poorly in 3dmark does poorly in games, and vice versa. The 8600gt is a great deal for $100, but it just isnt a high end card, and to that effect the chart is misleading.

i have nothing against the 8600gt its a good value for its price but the charts arent' that great for exampel the 8800gt will give you about 3-4times the frames for 2x the price but its showing the best bang for the 8600gt that makes no sense they should do it for games instead also overall the 2600xt will give you better frames than the 8600gt for the same price and ect...Please Log In to post.
