ok.. another simple way of looking at it rich.
Prices. Look at the prices. Why is does ultra cost this much?
Asus GeForce 8800 Ultra HTDP 768MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail
now look.. compare specs.. this is the most expensive 8600GTS there is
BFG GeForce 8600 GTS OC2 ThermoIntelligence 256MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail
"Generally" they dont make powerful cards for cheap and vice versa.. It has a high price tag cos its KNOWN to be more powerful.
£450= ultra
£350= gtx
£250= gts
£175= gt *bit of an exception to the rule as it outperforms a gts but thats just aggressive pricing by nvidia*
£119= One of the best 8600GTS
you really think sli'ing 2x 8600GTS for £220 would outperform an ultra even a gtx. Mate we all would wish that was true but it aint.
I wish a packet of cigs was £200,000 and a Ferarri was £5.
You get what you pay for.
