What till next week as the new GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB cards will be released along with the 169.29 drivers... It's worth the wait... I will have a review of one on launch day.

Are you saying the GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB is a better card than any of the 640MB cards listed in the poll?

If you are asking about the manufacturer PNY I've never had a problem with, BFG on the other hand has produced nothing but cards that fry in less than a month, I guess I've just had bad luck.

Yes, because of the G92.

BFG offers a lifetime warranty on their graphics cards.

I don't know much about the cards, so what is a G92?
I want to play MS Flight Simulator X at maximum graphic. What kind of card do i need?

G92 is a new processing unit on the 8800GTS's, basically all you need to look for would be the 512MB 8800GTS cards, as they all use the G92 core and the 640MB ones use the older slower core.

o.O wow, i'm using a seconhand 7800GT OC from BFG and its performing great.
i'm definitely going either XFX, EVGA, or ASUS next time i get a card though, i hear nothing but great things about them

Helicopters are trickie, especially in with the hardest setting, but i have been able to get quite a good handel on them.
On an other note.
Everyone in here says that the new 8800 GTS 512MB G92 is the way to go.
Compare this one to the 8800 GTX 768MB.
If you had to buy today, with the current prices, whats the better buy?
