Which graphics card is better? 8800GT or 8800GTS?

I'm just wondering because they are both compatible for dx10 so I was wondering which was faster?
I'm not that smart with laptops. :/ but I'm trying to learn.

 

8800gt > 8800gts

 

No, the GT is better than the GTS.

GTX>GT>GTS

Search on google. Toms hardware and anandtech both confirm this

 

Right, my mistake.

 

Um, there is no 8800m GT. The OP mentioned laptops. Currently, there only 8800 mobile cards are the 8800m GTS and 8800m GTX.

There is an 8800 GT desktop card which is more powerful than then 8800 GTS desktop card if that's what you're referring to.

 

Thanks for clearing that up crash.

 

No problem

 

... eh?

The GTS is the higher-end option of the two. Why's everyone saying that the GT is better than the GTS? Am I missing something here?

 

See this:
http://www.tomshardware.com/2007/10/29/geforce_8800_gt/page15.html

 

8800gtx > 8800gts G92 > 8800gt G90 > 8800gts ?

 

8800GTX>8800GTS 512>8800GT 512>8800GTS 640>xxx (dunno if the GT 256 is better than the GTS 320)

 

there is no 8800gt for laptops....

just the 8800m GTS and the 8800m GTX...the GTX is better because it has an X

 

That article compares the 512MB G92 8800GT to the 320MB G90 8800 GTS. The 320 and 640 MB 8800 GTS are not even being manufactured anymore. I was referring to the 512MB 8800 GTS versus the 512MB 8800 GT. It only seems logical to consider the G92 GTS, as opposed to the G90 one.

 

yeah I am referring to a desktop. I just wanted to know in general, as I know laptops either have gts or gtx, but oh well.

But both the gateway laptop has gts and the gateway desktop that I'm looking at have the 8800 thats why I was wondering.

 

the 8800m GTS will satisfy your gaming needs, I can max everygame on 1440x900 except for crysis.

 

That is the correct order.

 

There is an 8800M GTS and a 8800M GTX for laptops and if I am not mistaken the GTX would be the better model but I think the only difference is the amount of stream processors 96 in the GTX model and 64 in the GTS model.My system has the 8800M GTS processor and it works perfectly fine for gaming.

 

This is the correct order.

Already been stated

It may not be manufactured, but it's still available for purchase. Therefore it's useful to know how it compares to other cards.

There is a desktop hardware forum for questions like these.

 

ic....

You running the show now? should be a mod any day now...

 

No, just clarifying things.

Also, new members may not be aware of all the different forums and where to post certain questions, so I try to help them out by showing there what would be the appropriate forum instead of bashing them for being stupid and "oh how silly of you", etc. I'm not trying to act like a mod, I'm simply trying to help.

 

lol just joking dude sorry if it sounded rude..

 

Yeah you are rude nars.

And crash is too sensitive.

And me, well I'm perfect.

 

yes come out of "forerunner world" with unicorns and wookies and you will realize you are the same as anyone else

and your_________

i will complete that line when i can think of an appropriate word to use

 

Haha ok. Don't worry about it

 

now that we are finished with happy hour featuring forerunner, crash and the wook i think we should go bak on topic lol..

 

An admirable plan

 

what were we talking about?

oh right.....1923738m GTX is the best

 

Psh, yeah right. My GMA 900 beat the crap out of that

 

well I was going to put GMA 900 my A button was not working properly so I had to go with that card....sorry for the mis information everyone!

 

Heh. I'm not entirely sure why anyone would still want a 320MB GTS, though... For about $40, you can get a much better deal (IMO) in the form of the 512MB 8800GT.

 

I agree, but many people don't know that the 8800 GT will perform better than the 320MB 8800 GTS. Even on nvidia's website it's listed in the order of GTX>GTS>GT.

I say, wouldn`t it be fair to add the Ati cards here also ? since you guys went way off topic from the original 88 GT and GTS ,might as well say that the 3870 is the same if not better than the GT, bla bla..

 

Well, the OP was asking between the GT and GTS because of 2 desktops he was considering to buy. Since there is more than one version of the GTS, we were clarifying which one is better than the GT and which one is worse than the GT.

 

I did notice the GTX pooped in there a few times, that`s why I mentioned the 3870. sorry *popped*

 

Haha no problem
