those are for 3D rendering. they suck for gaming. you would get so much more out of an 8800, in the gaming field that is.

besides, there's no game out that requires that much vram, 400-500 mb is the highest i've seen so far for a game.

Those cards do not suck at all.  They are just not for gaming.

Yep they have their own niche market, and that market ain't the gamer's market.

Haha!

 

Just goes to show ya how the average consumer is focused so much on Specs.  I mean don't get me wrong I'd love one of those cards on my video editing machine, but Crysis...  not so much
