The title says it all , wich one is better for me ?

CORE 2 QUAD Q8200 2.33G

ASUS P5Q-TURBO mother board

4GB DUAL KINGSTON 2X2G PC800

CM EXTREME POWER PLUS 550W 2FANS

SATA2 WD 500GB 16M Hardrive

19" Monitor may buy a bigger one.. ?

Its not for INTENSE gaming..

What do you think ?

GTS 250 is better, its around 10% faster then a 9800gt , uses less power, and is smalller (I think*)04dcarraher

Hehe, you just know what angers me so you want to poke me, right? 9800GT is NOT BY ANY MEANS A REBRANDED 9800GT!!! I have had both cards and I know that 8800GT is a hot, loud and a power hungry piece of s*** compared to 9800GT (plus 9800GT performs slightly better). Please, know this!

Whoopie 1-2 fps faster :lol: if your lucky. the 9800gt runs cooler and uses less power true. but look at the specs to start off with, plus I've seen both 9800GT and 8800GT in action too no difference. Even on benchmarks they are tied 99% of the time. http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/gigabyte_9800gt/6.htm

[QUOTE="04dcarraher"][QUOTE="Slig0"] Nope, that would be 8800GT. 9800GT is pretty much the same generation as GTS250.Slig0

Some of the first-gen 9800GT's were still using the older 65nm fabrication, so essentially they were rebranded 8800GT's. It's the revision that uses less power and outputs less heat.
