XFX XXX 8800 GTS'

[SiliconJon]

320MB's Specs : 500Mhz GPU, 1.8Ghz RAM, 1.5Ghz Shader...
-------$290 @ ZZF AR w/Lost Planet

640MB's Specs : 500Mhz GPU, 1.9Ghz RAM, 1.5Ghz Shader...
-------$396 @ ZZF AR w/Lost Planet

For $290 the frames-per-buck to performance balance is great. But if you need more resolution head-room you'll need to opt for the 640MB.

EDiT:

EVGA 640MB $365 AR @ Newegg - 576Mhz GPU, 1.7Ghz RAM

you did see the other ones for 260 right?

Yeah, but I'm feelin' lazy and want them to overclock it for me. Though for $260 plus some extra cooling one could get an even better performance deal, hardware permitting.

Valid point but a $20 premium doesn't seem like that much extra for a factory OC and Lost Planet. XFX support is excellent and the "double lifetime warranty" is a bonus when reselling.

Nice deal OP.

Even better, get the superclock version for $365 AR
here.

eVGA rocks...and if 9800s come out before November 14th, the step-up program will be in full effect...

I ordered the standard one linked above for $350 last week and received it Friday. After installing, it seems that it's actually clocked at 576MHz core and 1700MHz memory. Quite a nice surprise 🙂

Nice, that EVGA trumps the 640MB XXX in price and GPU clock speed. Added to first post. It would be nice to see those two compared in a round of benchmarks...
