Nvidia's New High-Power, Low-Cost Card Available Now
The GeForce 8800 GT was a remarkable and critically acclaimed graphics card from Nvidia with newer architecture than its higher-priced cousins in the 8800 series that has made it an excellent choice for buyers looking for lots of power without spending lots of money - I've got two of them coming in the brand new PC that'll be replacing my recently deceased baby. (And by baby, I mean PC, not an actual baby. Those you have to replace with other babies.)
So the launch of Nvidia's even newer GeForce 8800 GTS 512 MB graphics card is good news for the under-$350 graphics card market - 25% more raw power than Nvidia's previous lower-priced graphics cards. This one will get you through the long gaming winter, according to Nvidia's Ujesh Desai:
“With games such as Crysis and Hellgate: London pushing PC gaming graphics, gamers need a powerful GPU to get the best experience. GeForce 8800 GTS 512 supports DirectX 10, offers killer performance, and does it all for around $299-349.”
