Yup, I agree with Max. It's very difficult to sell 8800GTS now. If they are willing to pay so much for 8800GTS, I'm sure these people know what they are buying.

TBH, I think it's a bad time to buy graphics card now, knowing that a new gen is coming out soon, and Crysis is not really 'playable'. I will wait definitely.

Power consumption was one of my major concern, until I saw the Crysis benchmark. I will skip this.

I have a couple questions. You guys said GT and GTS. I wonder what's the full code for them. They are abbreviations right? There're SE, LE, GT, GTS, GTX, Ultra... Sometimes it gets so confusing.

We meant what we said, GTS is GTS, GT is GT. Different cards, different performance.

That is the full "code". They are not abbreviations (from high to low) :

GeForce 8800 Ultra
GeForce 8800 GTX
GeForce 8800 GTS
GeForce 8800 GT
GeForce 8600 GTS
GeForce 8600 GT

Note that ATI has a different system altogether.

Ooo I see. Thanks a lot. Now I know. XD I always thought that those GTX, GTS or GT represent some term or something. XD
