There's no reason to even buy the 9600gt knowing this. Especially when you're talking high resolutions.
if you have a budget you can't just keep going up the GPU ladder.... this is a comparison of cards that go for less than $100, whereas 8800GT's on newegg have been hovering around $120
i dont factor in rebates
Go back to the first response in the thread. There is a link to an 8800GT on Newegg that is $110 this weekend and it has FREE shipping. Are you telling me that the extra $15 over the cost of a 9600GT will be a deal breaker for you?
