Mine's an XFX 8800 GTS 320MB. What can I say, it's a good card, runs high end games at "high settings", although I do miss the extra memory that you get from other cards.

im actually looking to upgrade my GPU becuase i don't have frame buffers in OpenGL

Consider an 8800, they support every OpenGL extension I can think of, like FBO, PBO, VBO, as well as various shaders. I couldn't do without FBO support personally.

why would a bye a GPU from the same generation as my current one? i would get a new one, most likely either a 400 series or 200 series, possibly a 500 series.

Getting a new video card would dramatically improve performance, a video card is the most important piece of hardware when it comes to gaming.

Now these days, I have to use 9600GT video card it is pretty modest card and ok for playing some games made 2-3 years ago.

Goodluck!


Thanks,

Yeah do not get an 8800. They're great cards but they're also old and you can get more performance with less power and fewer $$$.

I have a laptop with on-board graphics, 'cause I'm hard to the fuckin' core.

Yup, you should get a 9800 or a 250 (I think it's the 250 or the 260) that are both rebranded 8800 GTXs. ~100 bucks

I'd love to get one of these beasts, but that price tag is insane. Also less than one thousand units being produced so they're going to be really hard to find.
