Edit: won't let me post the link for some reason, so just get on amazon and there should be an advertisment for it.

Still it's worth paying $10-20 more for 9600GT.Spybot_9

And even more worth the 10-20 dollars for the 8800GT IMO.

how much better is the 9600 compared to the 8800gts 320?ryan0129

both cards are about the same

the 8800GTS has a slight edge in memory bandwidth and texture fill rates, the 9600GT has more memory. the 9600GT is a single slot card though so if you lack space that may be the better choice.

no, you really need 512 because your a typical fan boy who hates anything more then one year old. the poster simply asked about a specific card and its price. its a fine card for today's games. believe it or not it will even play Crysis on high...i know you are shocked....try to breathe in a bag or something.....

Where did I say that it's a bad card for todays games.:?

It's just that 9600GT is noticibly better at the same price so why bother with the GTS?

1. maybe because the GTS is all he can afford, maybe he likes the color, the brand, maybe it comes with a free game, maybe he just wanted to share the price with people on the board...who cares. he simply stated the card and asked how much better the 9600GT was. he never asked which one should I buy or which one will be better three years from now .

If you are buying either card right now then 9600GT all the way.No contest and end of story.
