Hi all,

I've been asking around shops in Lowyat about Leadtek 8800GTS 320MB & every shop says no stock. I made a call to Ban Leong & they told me that there is a shortage. Is this phenomenon only happening here or worldwide? Shouldn't this card be easily available since it has good performance for the price especially when you pair it in SLI mode & running at resolutions not exceeding 1280X1024? Ban Leong cant even confirm when will this card be available. Does anybody have news on this?

This card should run UT3 & Crysis pretty sweet in SLI @ 1280X1024 with medium to high settings.

If you're looking for a 8800 series cards, go for the 8800GT - very the value for money.

If you're looking for a cheap cheap 8800GTS card, go look in garage sales..... smile.gif

why so many ppl bother to sell thier gts320mb....

??? What's wrong with possesing 8800gts?
Yes, I'm owner of the card but still I can run games even at 1400X900 resolution with no lags.

No games made my Card difficult till this days, even crysis.

Hehe, i'm one them who gain benefit from this (pick up a cheap 8800GTS from garage sales tongue.gif)

But IMO, there's really not necessary to jump from 8800GTS to 8800GT. It's not like getting a HUGE improvement right? even though, yes 8800GT is better than 8800GTS.

hmm..yes, 8800gt is better than gts but the performance increase..should not be taken into consideration..just not really that impressive. although it has been sad and unfair to us gts user..however i don't think there is a need to change to gt..unless you are going to get a new card.

Sigh.. new buyers should go for 8800GT, but existing 8800GTS no reason to move at all. If ur 8800GTS user you probably wanna upgrade to Ultra level card rite...

For me, GTS still can last for another year or 2.
No point wasting so much money to keep updated. Price will depreciate day per day. We know that. It's just a matter of time.

But just an opinion lor. Some people might love to go after best performance cards.

(Psst : I might grab another GTS to SLI it since people are selling cheap. I rather "rugi" RM700 more to get a 2nd GTS than "rugi" RM400+ to get a GT)
