Customer Reviews

8800GTS
320mb, 2 Dvi ports DX 10 ready, whats not to love its just a great card

Excellent Value!
Most video cards seem to be rated by their performance in Crysis. That is overkill and this adapter does everything well and at a great price: it generates relatively little heat, does not have a loud fan and its 320 bit spec places it alongside the best-performing video adapters.

Am I Missing Something
Yeah, I bought this card a year ago, and its already outdated, but according to everone else, this card "blows everything out of the water." That may be true for some games, but for others its a downright lie! Is it just my computer? Maybe I am missing out on some critical thing, like a Core 2 Quad processor. Nevermind, here is a compiled list of some games and the detail and frames you can achieve.
By the way, 1280x1024 is my maximum resolution

--2004--
Unreal Tournament 2004: 1280x1240, ultra high detail, 4x AA - no lag
Battle for Middle Earth: 1280x1240, ultra high detail, 8x AA - no lag
--2005--
Titan Quest: 1280x1240, maximum detail 2x AA - very minor lag
Never Winter Nights 2: 1152x864, high detail, shadows disabled - no lag
Guild Wars: 1280x1240, maximum detail, 8x AA - no lag
--2006--
Elder Scolls 4: Oblivion: 1280x960, high detail, HDR on, shadows off - moderate lag (particularly in cities)
During battle - high lag
Battle for Middle Earth 2: 1280x960, ultra high detail - minor lag
Dark Messiah: 1280x1024, maximum detail 4x AA - no lag
--2007--
World in Conflict: 1024x768, ultra high detail, no shadows - minor lag
Unreal Tournament 3: 1024x768, low detail, HDR off - minor lag

Yes, it does produce results but they are not the results that I hoped for.
