Who doesn't?

It's just that the nearest one is a few hours from here.

The only one is all the way across town :(

Core clocks dont matter on a vid card.
So doesnt on a Cpu.
To many factors to account now.

Anyways, go beat up a kid and get 20$. Ya

nu

it does make a difference

just not a huge one

lol

Memory clock & bandwidth is what makes the difference

128-bit vs 192-bit

Both cards are very good.
Much better the what you would have normally bought.
Just choose between which ever brand.

I redact my previous statement,

For gaming purposes this will actually give you the best bang for your buck.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125380

Yes I am aware its a 200 series (its a revision 2 so it's not really a 200 series)

It's cheaper, and in some cases it performs better than both the 6770, ti550.

So if you only have $100 go with that 260, if you have a little more

go with,
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130591 (this 460 is slightly better and cheaper than the 6790)
or
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102931

The second one looks best since it has a mail-in to drop it to $99

I can probably convince my parents to let me borrow some to get it, then pay back

and nvidia cards don't dick up measurement fonts in hammer so much :/

Wow, what the hell? My 460 cost 10x as much yet the cheaper 260 did better and its cheaper? That makes no sense.  Anyway.

260 seems like the best for you or 550

Depends on the situation, sometimes the 460 is faster, sometimes it is slower.

I have the feeling it was the same case as the 8800 GTS 512MB I had before.


They had the product ready to go, however the rest of the 9000 series wasn't ready to be released, so instead they released it as a new revision of an existing 8000 series card, when in reality it was really a 9000 series card.


Nvidia Probably would have released this revision as a 400 series however, timing and the lack of a retail version of the 300 series mandated it come out with the 200 series.
