It is a very nice card
But it's all a question of 'do you need it'?*
Or is the money put the better use elsewhere? Cos your 8800 Ultra isn't going to be struggling that much...
*Yes of course you do :-)
Just going through some reviews of the old GTX260 against an 8800GTX at 1920x1200 resolutions and the GTX260 is quite a bit better. That and it should use less power...if the SSC is the 55nm part.
The HD4850X2 is a really good card but too long and utter poo cooling design (in my eyes).
Yup it is the 55nm
i'll have some piccys to whet your appetite soon![]()
LoL...you and Zak have virtually convinced me to get it...I am sitting here reviewing 1920x1200 monitors (again)...
But if anyone is on the Scanshot mailing list....£207 for the EVGA GTX260 SSC!
test review
Pre big bang drivers and 'only' the slower superclocked version...
I upgraded from a 9600GT to the GTX260 SSC 55nm, didn't think it was worth it initially however it has grown on me and I would do it again even if it cost me £20 more than the current price at the time.
Don't expect much of a bundle though and hope you get a good price for your 8800 ultra if your getting rid of it to fund the GTX260.
It's also on Scan's today only with a 2GB usb stick for £206.99.

Currently at 1280x1024 but on the look out for a 1920x1200 monitor.
Infact, Benq FP241W is £312...so am in two minds...do I go for the monitor first or the GTX250 SSC?
The alternative to the Benq is the HP LP2475 which is around £380...Benq is P-MVA, HP is H-IPS...then there is the super deal on the GTX260 SSC....
I can only afford 1 this month...
I'd go for the monitor first. There'll be another graphics card mega deal next month I'm betting!
I'd wait a month and get both together! At least that way you can really get a boost for your money rather than two half boosts.
