    8800 GT vs 8800GTS

    What are the differences over the 8800GT and the 8800GTS?

    I have an 8800GTS (320MB) and wondering if its worth upgrading it to a 512MB GT!

    Thanks

    if you can sell the GTS to cover the cost of the GT then I suppose it is as the GT is the better card.

    But I imagine your GTS is running things quite nicely.

    I've noticed that my GTS has difficulty handling Crysis - I know its a demanding game but I'm under the assumption that the 320MB isn't able to handle the high quality textures as much as 512MB would. Thanks for the link!

    from all the card reviews i've seen lately, just about everything has difficulty handling Crysis really well.

    Why do all the GPUs on the market struggle coping with Crysis? There must be something in the works that will be able to take it with everything on high!

    we live in hope!

    A lot of people are flogging their GTS's for the same amount as buying the GTs for so if you can do that I reckon its worth it!
