Hello, I am trying to decide between 2 different makes of the 8800GT 512MB.
Gigabyte - $222 http://www.giga-byte.com/Products/VGA/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=2720
GF 8800GT 512MB DDR3 700MHZ PCIe x16/ NVIDIA/ 512 MB/ DDR3/ 256 Bit/ GPU-Takt: 700 MHz/ Speichertakt: 1900 MHz/ Anschlüsse: Dual Dual-Link DVI-I HDTV-Out, Game: NeverWinterNight2, PCI-E 2.0 DX10, Zalman Lüfter/ Kühlung: aktiv/ Verpackung: Retail Win 98/2
Asus - $243 http://www.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=2&l2=6&l3=442&l4=0&model=1918&modelmenu=1
EN8800GT/G/HTDP/512M PCIe x16/ NVIDIA/ GeForce 8800GT/ 512 MB/ DDR3/ 256 Bit/ GPU-Takt: 600 MHz/ Speichertakt: 1800 MHz/ Anschlüsse: HDTV-Out, 2x DVI/ Features: OpenGL, HDCP, DirectX10/ Kühlung: aktiv/ Verpackung: Retail MPF ML
Which card in your opinion will perform better? The gigabyte seems to be OC'd from the description from the site I would be buying it from. By buying pre OC'd does that enable the card to reach speeds unatainable by the Asus? Any reason to pick one over the other on specs alone? Thanks for your help!
