NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT Reviews


Tue 2007-10-30 - Posted by Patrick "MACMAC" MacMillan
As you all know, the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT was officially released yesterday, and most large e-tailers sold out in a matter of hours. For those of you who weren’t fortunate enough to buy one, here are some reviews to hold you over:


  • Anandtech:

    “It's really not often that we have the pleasure to review a product so impressively positioned. The 8800 GT is a terrific part, and it is hitting the street at a terrific price (provided NVIDIA's history of properly projecting street prices continues). The performance advantage and price utterly destroyed our perception of the GPU landscape. We liked the value of the 8800 GTS 320, and we were impressed when NVIDIA decided to go that route, providing such a high performance card for so little money. Upping the ante even more this time around really caught us off guard.”

  • DriverHeaven:

    “High performance at a reasonable price is a balance which both ATI and Nvidia strive to achieve in the lucrative mainstream market and today is the release of Nvidia's new 512MB 8800 GT, priced around £160/$250 mark.

    We have four cards on our test bench for this review supplied by Asus, MSI, XFX and Zotac with each taking a different approach to the reference GT, some are overclocked and others have added extras. Which one, if any, should be top of your shopping list?”

  • HotHardware:

    “Virtually across the board NVIDIA's new GeForce 8800 GT is as fast or faster than a 640MB GeForce 8800 GTS card and significantly faster than a Radeon 2900 XT, save for a couple of CrossFire/SLI enabled tests like 3DMark and Bioshock, where driver maturity is likely the limiting factor for the new NVIDIA card. From a purely a DX10 gaming perspective, the GeForce 8800 GT ran roughshod over the significantly more expensive Radeon HD 2900 XT and even outscored a GeForce 8800 GTS in more than a few spots as with our Bioshock single card testing. Finally, in terms of HD digital video processing and image quality, the GeForce 8800 GT, with its second gen PureVideo HD engine, is roughly on par with AMD's AVIVO solution currently.”
