i'm looking to buy a mid-range gaming card for my lil bro. he plays COD4, CSS, GRAW2, Half life 2, halo2, and crysis on low setting. but all games are played at 22 inch res. my budget was around 90 bucks. i searched everywhere and saw this.

or should i sneeze another 10 bucks for this

but i'm guessing that the GTS is a g80, and the GT is a g92.


what do u guy think?? what card should i go with?? The 8800GT is more in my budget through.

-the rig has a 430 watts PSU with 2 hard drive and 3 DVDRW. what should i do about the power supply?

any suggestion???

G92 8800GT is better and cooler than G80 GTS. The 8800GT one is 256mb version it may be at edge depending on the resolution. It is worthy to spend a bit more to get 512mb for long run. The 8800GT is only 105w so the 430w should be fine. Check the psu lable to see some numbers.

Go for the G92 GT.
A 512mb version would perform better, but the 256mb version will be fine for your brother.

if u could get the 512mb version. and the 640mb versions of the GTS(G80) has a slight edge over the 8800gt
