Which one would be more worth it? With an AMD 6400+, 4GB RAM would a 8800 GTS or 8800 GT be better for gaming at 1680x1080 (or 1440x900). I mean, obviously the GTS model is better then the GT, but is the extra $40 or so buck worth it? I heard that the GTS was better for higher resolutions, but I don't know. I've looked everywhere for GTS vs. GT comparisons but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Of these choices, two have nice dual slot cooling. The GTS is $30 more, but comes with the Witcher game. IMO The GTS is worth $30 more and the game is a bonus. The PNY is cheap and if you don't mind noise it will save you more money. (edit: nevermind, price went up)

Here you can see how the overclocked 8800GT models compare to a stock 8800GTS (G92). The MSI is a different card, but clocked the same as the Quad pipe.

Anyway, look over the three reviews and you should get a good understanding of how stock and factory overclocked 8800GT and GTS (G92) stack up with each other.
