Dizzy.. the 8800gts g92 is about 5% faster as the 8800gt for about 20% more money.. Also.. compared with the hd4850 .which is 30-40% faster as your GTS, costs as much as an 8800gt.
8800gts (even if it has only been released for half a year) is outdated.

Ye, you can do that with both.. gts probably a bit better because of the dual slot cooler, but you will never get +40% by overclocking.

Are you seriously claiming that the 8800 gts is better than the 8800 gts g92?

No. Im claiming that the hd4850 is a much, MUCH better price performance card as the 8800gts g92 atm.

Well I got my 8800 GTS G92 for 150.00 so if it beats that then it looks like I ripped my self off.

It would be USD because he lives in America. Which means yours is equivalent to basically 200 USD, therefore, nvidia wins again :P

hd4850 costs about 170 dollar, new.. (I suppose you bought your gts 2nd hand?).
Anyway.. 20 dollar extra to spend for a 30-40% increase.. I have to say that ati wins this time tbh.

I know you are an ATI hater soviet, but there is not getting around it this time.. ati has the upper hand atm... Dont think that I am an ati fanboy now, because infact, I never had an ati card in my life. But ati simply has the best line up with there hd4xxx.

I actuly hate ATI to much that my computer came with an integrated ATI(not my nice one at my moms) and I actuly just bought a whole new mother board because it had an ATI on it...

I bought it new from newegg.com it was on sale plus a mail in rebate...

Well.. If u hate ati its a different matter. Just think its a waste to buy a less good price/performance card just because you had bad experiences in the past.
Easy to speak for me ofcourse, I never had an ati card so wouldnt know why I should hate it ;)
