I am looking for a new graphics card and have narrowed it down to one of these two:
BFG 9800 GTX @ £205
BFG 8800 GT @ £131 (625MHz / 1800MHz)
Obviously the 9800 GTX is better, but how much better? Is it worth the difference in price. I obviously expect the priceerformance to be worse in the 9800, but I want to buy something that will last a long time without having to be replaced.
I will be playing at only low resolutions (1280x1024) but possibly on two montors (e.g. two instances of EVE-Online OR Supreme Commander in dualview).
I will not be overclocking.
I understand that both of these cards run on the G92 chip and thus have the same features (Shader 4, OpenGL 2.1).
Any advice is much appreciated, thanks!
