8800GTX or PS3?

What would you get if you had 600$ to spend and I already have a 360 and don't care what games are multiplat

PS3.

Better value.

Do you have pleanty of CPU power and RAM? Get the card. If not, the Ps3.MegaPigeon

Agree. I like your sig:lol:

If you already have a 360 then get the PS3. Most PC games are also out for the 360. Elviathan

no they arent....the PC has far more exclusives then the 360. In fact most of the AA games the PC has gotten this year (and there have been a ton) have been exclusive.

Depends upon your existing PC (you wouldn't want a bottleneck), but if that holds up the 8800GTX for sure.

The PC is overflowing with quality games right now (a 9.5 just yesterday, and more AAAs this gen then all consoles combined) whereas the PS3 is off to a very slow start in it's games library.

With the big hitters on the PC team coming up to bat later this year, it's hard to deny the value of it's library.

Actually, that's the other way around, the PC has more exclusive games than any other system.

If you can, forget the 8800GTX and get two 8800GTSes and SLI them together. Generally better performance at higher resolutions.

Personally, though, I'll wait for the 9-Series.

Get the PS3,

Blind fanboys are amazing. Its almost as if they need no proof at all to voice their rock solid facts.

I agree.

Depends... if you want something that last 10 years or 10 months. Okay not really but in a few months that card will quickly degrade in value when 9800 comes out and then so on until a pos in a couple years. On the other hand the ps3 could watch movies and well unless u dont have an hdtv than is pointless.darkjounin

The 8800GTX will devalue no faster than the PS3, it's just your able to upgrade it much sooner. You'll be able to run games on that card for about as long as the PS3 is around.

I know. Who knew they could make a console that actually watches the movies with you. It's like your buddy.

and your actually considering which one to get?

your PC would kill crysis several times over if you added a 8800GTX....in fact you could probably run several copies of the game at once if it actually allowed you to do that.

Get the card and you got yourself a dream rig right there. Trust me you won't regret it as soon as you see the nuke go off in WiC.

How well will a 8800gts run STALKER or any of the other current games and are you talking about he 640mb model?

How big of a leap is there between a GTX and a GTS?

How much longer would a GTX last you and how much better would it run Crysis than a GTS?

Depends can you wait until November/December? The 9800 GTX is supposedly a beast with more processing power than theBOTH thePS3 AND Xbox 360 combined. If it lives up to the rumor, is still yet to be determined. 1 TerraFLOP is a rediculous level of processing power though and thats what it is supposed to have. Imagine the jump between thenVidia 6800 and the 7800 and you will get a general comparison of the two(as far as we know. It may not turn out that way though).

GTX and WiC :D.Wasdie

Would the 8800GTX fit in your mobo/case?

Get the PS3,

I will put this simply. If you buy the 640mb edition of the GTS you SHOULD (according to Crytek) run Crysis on Ultra-high DX10 at 1280*1024 at a stable30FPS. The GTX will run it at resolutions higher than the GTS, but otherwise the difference is negligible. Also, look that the difference between the 7800 GTS and the 7800 GTX. both still hold up very well and they only differ by a few FPS.

PS3 is a way better deal.killzowned24

he already has a very strong PC...its just missing a video card....an 8800GTX is a much better deal.

I hope it runs on a 550 psu. I read on some sites recommendations for a 600 psu for a 8800gts for optimal performance.

If you look at the XFX 8800gts OC at TigerDirect it recommends a 600 Watt psu for single and a 700 for SLI

I bought a GTX... and I think it's the only real choice...

You will play more great games in a smaller gap... only this autumn, there is like 10 must have titles for the PC.
