Does anyone know how much does 8800gt performance vary from 3850...
Is it worth the 90 ringgit?

Ati made 3850 to compete with 8600gts? but the price difference between 3850 and 8600gts is almost the same as 3850 and 8800gt.. lol

Hard to decide...

both 3850 and 8800gt i mentioned is 256 mb..

Between the 512 mb and 256 mb..how much resolution should it be in to see some different in quality?

But i swear to god that i would devote my life for ati(ati die hard fan) haha tongue.gif

Not for nothing..Every ati's graphic pictures looks alittle bit more realistic compare to Gf. I wonder..I heard of some people having trouble with 8800gt while playing battlefield..(some driver problem probably)

If someone would provide a nice video clip(not those youtube coz cant see any different with such blurry and small resolution) for both graphic card playing the same game, then choosing would have been easier.. haha..

p.s* in a littlebit tight budget coz 8800gt in my place might not be selling that cheap.. biggrin.gif
