Why is the 8800gt/9800gt 512mb faster then the 1gb?

 

[Nick]

Becuase of something to do with the fact that the 9800GT isn't optimised for 1gb memory. At high resolutions yes the 1gb will come in handy but at standard reses the 512mb out performs it.

 

[saltynay]

Thought it might be something like that. Remember when the 8800gts with 640mb was seen as perfect for high resolutions and the 320mb was for standard res's?

Ah I used to long for an 8800Gts 640mb..now I have a 4830 still not the best but hey out performs it

 

[saltynay]

Ah but I now have 2 in sli so I am only just behind you. I went about 6 months thinking I had the 320mb then randomly checked with everest whilst OCing and was surprised they had made the mistake and upgraded me to the 640meg

Ya, then you found those benchmarks (either you or Fadetoblack2004) and we were like NO MORE 640MB GTS'!
