I am thinking of these 2 options:
1 - Two 8600GT 512Mb cards in SLI configuration.
OR
2 - One 8800GTS 320Mb card.
Does anyone know *conclusively* which graphics setup will be the fastest?
Is the single 8800GTS gonna be faster than the two 8600GT cards?
Here's the specs:
_______________________________
GeForce 8600GT 512MB DDR3
Core Clock Speed: 540MHz
Memory Clock Speed: 1400MHz
Shader Clock Speed: 1200MHz
Memory Bus: 128 bit
Memory Bandwidth: 24 GB/s
Stream Processors: 32
_______________________________
GeForce 8800GTS 320Mb DDR3
Core Clock Speed: 500MHz
Memory Clock Speed: 1600MHz
Shader Clock Speed: 1200MHz
Memory Bus: 320 bit
Memory Bandwidth: 64 GB/s
Stream Processors: 96
_______________________________
Don't forget the 8600GT is going to be in an SLI configuration,
I don't know what is doubled because of that but note that
even with 2 of the 8600GT cards, those still do not match the
96 stream processors of the 8800GTS.
I am getting a brain haemorrhage trying to work this one out!
HELP!
