What are 8800 GT's worth these day?

[silent h3ro]

I would get a RADEON HD 4850 over an 8800GT. Supposedly they beat a 9800GTX. I take that back, but I've seen the benchmarks and it definitely beats the 8800GTS pretty well. I take that back again, actually it does beat a 9800GTX in some games but loses in others. You can find one on eBay for $130 AR (after rebate).

sweet, do ATI do stuff like SLI technology?

[silent h3ro]

Yeah ATI has technology like nVidia's SLi but they call it Crossfire.

[Acid_death69]

sweet wonder what the four series would be like if you had three of em on a mobo would need a massive PSU

[silent h3ro]

Yeah lol I bet you would need a massive PSU. I wonder if you could connect 3 of these...

[Acid_death69]

well you can connect three nvidia GPUs, so i dont see why not

[silent h3ro]

I just checked wikipedia and it says that you can link four video cards on one mobo with Crossfire X and I know you can do that with SLi too.

[Acid_death69]

FOUR! does have to be an extended ATX mobo? god thats mad the mobo must be as big as my case lol. Wonder what games you could play with that in the future. god thats bad ass!

Would love to see a MoBo that supports that Oh wait here's one looks cool but I wonder if it's really worth it.

The drawback of ATI 4XXX series is that it consumes lot of power compared to Nc counterparts. So IMO getting a CF of ATI card(4XXX) would really need a good PSU(costly)!
Nevrtheless 4XXXX are the best in midrange segment currently
