Awesome 8800GT deal!

I like keeping my GPU under 90c.

8800GTs are pretty loud.
I went and got one because they said they can get close to an 5770 (and maybe beat it at some games?). For $45, it ain't bad when comparing to the $150 last time I checked) 5770. Only downside is not DX11, but there is like what, 1 game that uses DX11 right now?

The 5770 is better then the 880gt in pretty much everything. They aren't very comparable

Oh, I forgot to add 8800GT SLI vs 5770. A single 5770 can beat an 8800GT by 10-20FPS from the last benches I saw, but as I researched, people told me 8800GT SLI is better for more FPS (don't know how much), but the 5770 is more future proof (being 1 card, DX11, etc)

OO

my GPU never goes over 50C..

Mine never goes over 40C...overclocked.

Might be because I have it on water though.

Never went over 60C on stock cooling.

how does this card compare with http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicat...?EdpNo=3749879&csid=ITD&body=MAIN#detailspecs
Any difference besides price?

 

[foothead]

8800GT wins by about 20%.

Would the 8800GT make a good PhysX card?

Very good. a 95/600gt should be sufficient tbh.
