Hahha dude, the GT is 200% better than the 320 GTS one !Menfear
Don't make him feel bad :(.
Buddy, I won't lie to you, the 8800GT is better than the GTS by quite a bit, but it won't stop you from maxing out most games that are coming out soon. Just don't think about it. Look on the bright side, you can start saving up for the 9 series before everyone else :).
man just do whatmy matedid use the 8800gts for about 6hr non-stop and put it back in the box it should die then phonethem and say you want a refund the card is broken on arrival and if they say why didnt u call before say ur brother gave it to u as a birthday gift today and it's not working IQT786Since he got it from Newegg, he can only get a replacement. Also, that's a little thing called return fraud...

like anyone really cares about return fraud

Nice math. It doesn't get 200% the performance.
Anyways you might be able to return it to newegg> If you do that make sure to call them!! They might drop the restock fee. They've done that to me before. Just tell them what happened.
Or Step Up

Wow that's hard to read.
Thanks Guys. I think I might call newegg to see what they can do. the new GT is a better card for the same price or less than the GTS, and it uses less energy.MotoRacer81
Tell me if it works!! I was thinking of trying to RMA my 8800gtx for 2 8800gt's but I don't want to pay the 75 dollar restocking fee
Man, if I had waited a little bit, I would have gotten the 8800GT!!!! I have bought my 8800GTS 320 card from NewEgg not even a month ago. Could I exchange it without losing an arm and leg?? do you guys think the 8800GT is a way better the 8800GTS 320MBMotoRacer81
Ive a GTS too and I fell like crap too, I wanna sell my 640MB GTS and get this baby, cos its smaller, nicer and I just fell in love with it lolz. :-)
Guys, It worked!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO. I just finished talking to newegg, and they will give me a full refund for my 8800GTS(which was bought like a a week and half ago), and they will let me order the 8800GT (it F#$% out of stock though, but I'll wait a little while nontheless)!! NewEgg for life!!!! That's awesome customer service!!!!!!!!!! I will never buy anything from anywhere but them.MotoRacer81
Rule What did you say to them. I wanna do the same thing!!

I just told them that I didn't know that the 8800GT was coming out, and that I spent about 1600 dollars on computer parts from them which is true because I just finished my built this past weekend. I have only had my card for like not even 2 weeks now. That's all I said. I was talking to them over live chat and talked to this guy Stephen. he basically told me that he is going to give me a full refund so I can order my 8800GT!!! I am very happy about that. but the card is out of stock right now, so I have to wait, too bad.

They keep popping more and more up there...I was gonna send back my 8800gtx and get two of these but SLI scores show not much difference in lower reolstuion (Under 1600x1200) and I only play at 1360x768 max

Oh, I definitely wouldn't go SLI on this if you're playing at that resolution. I am playing at 1680x1050. the GTS perform very well at that resolution, but the GT will be better nontheless. I wouldn't switch if I were you. GTX is awesome enough unless you're going to upgrade soon to a better monitor.

naa no upgrade...I have a 27" HD TV that I play on. I'm super happy with it. I'm gonna stick with 8800gtx now until the big boy cards come out next century
Hahha dude, the GT is 200% better than the 320 GTS one !Menfear
Dude, its a 45% increase in performance.
As for feeling like crap, dont. I am in the same spot, but all I can say is that my card runs Crysis demo just fine. Maybe in a few months Ill sell it to get a GT, but until them I am happy.
And dont forget, all these people going out and getting GTs will likely regret when Dx10.1 comes out, and considering the 9000 series cant be far away either.
Its a vicious cycle, and you can either waste your money upgrading every 6 months or accept that your card is more than adequate, though not the best.

yeah, I understand. I was pretty happy with the GTS, but I just built my PC this past weekend and spent more money on the GTS!!!! Anyway, I already ordered the GT and I am returning the GTS for a full refund. NewEgg is awesome.

Dont worry mate. The GTS is a great card, but alas the GT is better. So we'll all run out and buy GT's and next month the 9 series will come out, then it will our turn.
the GT is not way better, but ite better it nothing to get veyr angry at.yoyo462001The GT performs almost the same as the GTX. It's way cheaper too.
