I seen this today, seems pretty hot. I am debating on this or an 8800GT 512...can't make up my mind. =/

After buying the 9600GT, I wish I would have gotten the 8800GT. The prices on the 8800's are so low now, I'm going to pick one up and put the 9600 in my slower machine.

Hmm, tempting to upgrade my 7600GT on my HTPC to improve the gaming aspect of it. Will this thing fit in an Antec Fusion case?

HOT!!

so you could get 2 of these for 260 bucks in SLI mode... That would be pretty fast for a gaming rig right? Like be able to play crysis on pretty much everything set to high?

Just asking....




Sounds like a HOT deal to me....

how would one 9600GT compare to two 7800GT's in SLI? I have XP pro so the DX10 won't be a factor

depends on resolution, but most likely not if you're running 1600x1200 and u want any aa/af

heres AT's bench for medium settings

still pretty fast though

I got two of the PNY ones last week or so for $151. I think it beats out the 8800gt and gts, but not the gtx or ultra. This one looks just like mine except for the badging. I have one in my Ultra microfly as well, lol. This is a long card, but not wide and only uses one slot. Headroom is barely adequate. I didn't tell my kid and when he got on to play COD4 or Crysis, his eyes got all big and he said "what happened, look at all this detail on my gun, and everywhere...!"

I think there's a HardOCP promo code (hardocp31715) that bumps an additional $15 off the price.

Judging by the tests HERE i'd say a pair would blow away an 8800GTS 512.

9600GT SLI score quite a bit higher than an 8800 Ultra and a GTS 512 doesn't even compare. So...yeah...they'll destroy. ^_^

Rats! Not the answer I was looking for :p Very tempting to sell my GTS and grab a pair, but then I would also need a 680i mobo...

Thanks for the code, that tipped me over. $130AR for such a card is a steal. I just hope stock fan is not too loud.

I got an XFX 9600 from ZZF and the thing is awesome. I got mine for 149.99 AR which still is a great value.
