The 7800GT's run anywhere ~ $25 cheaper than the 7900GT's, but the 7900GT's are on 90nm, vs the 7800GT's 110nm, they have faster core and memory clocks, and an additional pipeline. Pretty soon the 7800GT's will be more expensive than the typical 7900GT.
So the 7900GT is the better card, but it's cheaper?? What's up with that?
Kazama said:What! $3000 NZD for that rig, you could get that for about $2100 AUD. Probaly due to the shipping .., From the looks of it the GF8 series is coming out in June/July, If you could wait i would reccomend getting them instead. Also don't go XFX ive heard alot of problems with them, There overclocked over the limit and will be tempepture problems. Probaly BFG, eVGA or Leadtek-[Probaly would come out later]
I know, loads of people on these forums say XFX is a bad brand to go with. But only a few people or so have had problems with XFX cards. Every company is bound to make a few dud cards, people are just unlucky. If you look on newegg, most products lose a star or more on their rating because some people get dud products, and lose their hope in that company forever.
