    Left4Dead,
    Cod4,
    Dead Space,
    Fallout3.

    My 9600m Gs struggles to run left4dead at native resolution. And even at lower ones. I have the m860tu with the p9500 cpu, and im in the verge of getting the last 9800m Gt of a store that sells clevo.
    Any input?

    No It's a horrible card. Completely outdated. I hate mysef and that's why I bought it with this new computer with it. I had no intentions of futureproofing at all. :)

    I assume i should still go for the Gt or is it worth getting the Gts instead???i assume that Gt has more shader units so it will be better or not?

    yes the GT has more shaders, and performs about 10% better than the GTS.

    In some test, the difference was only around 5%.
