Which graphic card is better?

Question

hi i wanna ask you which card is better

nvidia geforce 8800 gts or

nvidia geforce 9600 gt

both have 512 gddr3 memory

Answer 1

9600 gt has better performance and price ratio than 8800 gts, 9600 gt ready for PCIe 16x 2.0, 9600 gt cheaper than 8800gt, less power consumption than 8800 gts...

Answer 2

8800 gts should be the better card.

Answer 3

That 8800gts will have better performance than the 9600gt.  The only reason to get the 9600gt over the 8800gts is that the 9600gt is cheaper.  

If you aren't planning on SLI, you might want to consider the Radeon 4850, which should be better than the 8800gts and can often be had for not much more money.

The person who said the 9600gt was faster may have comparing it to some of the older 8800gts cards, such as the ones with 320MB of RAM.  See this article for a description of the older cards vs the newer, g92-based 8800gts:
