8800 GTS thoughts?
"Don Burnette" wrote in message ... In addition, I am now looking at two cards. 1: EVGA 8800 GTS w/ 320 mb ram 2: BFG 8800 GTS w/ 640 mb ram Both cards, are pretty much spec'd the same in regards to core and memory speeds. Only question in my mind, is will the additional 320 mb ram on the BFG card be worth the app 130 bucks difference in price between the two. I do plan on upgrading to Vista and utilizing dx10 in the future. I primarily fly MS FSX, and understand it really likes a lot of ram on the video card. Yeah, the BFG 8800 is the one. Great warranty and you can never have enough ram. |

EVGA provides a lifetime warranty on most of their videocards plus a stepup
program within 90 days of purchase which BFG doesn't have. regards Robert "Don Burnette" wrote in message ... "Slap" wrote in message news:HU7Sh.44834$DE1.44243@pd7urf2no...
