Also you will save a bucket of money for that small performance drop!
so on average you will gain 6 frames per second? Is that worth loads of money to you?
[QUOTE=''daytona_178'']so on average you will gain 6 frames per second? Is that worth loads of money to you?[/QUOTE]Considering the fact that I'm not paying $500 for the GTX? I don't want my GTS card. I don't know how to sell things on ebay and people probably wouldn't want to buy it from a new guy who nobody trusts. It's not worth the hassle.

It seems to me you have already made up your mind...

Umm... why use AA? AA was made for low resolutions over a decade ago...to mask jaggy edges, mainly for 800x600 and 640x480 resolutions. At higher resolutions all AA manages to do is make everything blurry with a huge Framerate cost. High resolutions cancel the need for Anti-aliasing. (1600x1200 especially).

thats a TERRIBLE deal for youcraigslist the gts and you'll fetch at LEAST 150$ then spend a little more money for the 8800gts 512mb which is even better than the 8800gt
craigslist and sell to local buyers only, arrange a meet or pickup or w/e. It's not that much of a hassel
Damnit people. I am getting the GTX for pratically the same price as a 8800GT. $260 + GTS card means basically that I am selling the card for $165.
