looking at the provided chart, it seems like the ONLY advantage the 8800GT has over the 768mb GS is that it has 256-bit memory vs. 192-bit...the 768mb 8800GS has higher clocks

I am sorry but is it just me or does the second picture look REALLY photoshopped? I mean look at the actually GPU then at its edges it simply doesnt match.

Probably because it will be geared toward HTPC use.
