EVGA GeForce 8800 GT 512MB 256-bit GDDR3?

Question

Is this a good card? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130318 I bought this card to replace a Radeon Xstasy X1300 which was 10 dollars more because I bought it for a low profile computer but didnt put it in it.

You can see my old card here to compare it.

Answer 1

Yes, it's a very good card.

Answer 2

The 8800GT is significantly better...

Make sure your power supply can handle the upgrade. You'll want at least 20 amps on the 12 volt rails. By 20 amps, I mean 20 amps sustained, not in a burst. Not all power supply will honestly live up to their ratings.

Answer 3

Its an ok card. If you want something good all round get http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...

Its ownage. Like the other person said, make sure your power supply can handle it. I like to get 600W for my computers, then you don't have to worry unless you go all out with everything.

Answer 4

Check the spec's on both cards. Memory Clock, etc. It's like comparing a Chevy station wagon to a Corvette! (Evga GeForce is the Corvette!)
