Is it worth it to trade in my 8800gts + $200 for a 8800gtx?

A few months ago, maybe. Today, no...not for $200.

Not really, pocket the cash, wait for the 9800 series.

For me the answer would be "no." Lousy price for performance upgrade.

Hmm...Thanks for the opinions. I was thinking that since the GTS' price didn't drop that much, I'd get more from selling it now than waiting until it drops even more...

Do you have the 320meg or the 640? If you had the 320 then it would probably be worth it.

Given current prices (particularly if you have the 320) yeah, but since you've probably paid more than that doubtfully.

A new 8800GTS 320mb is somewhere around $260-300; a 640 is somewhere around $300-360.

I have the 640mb version that I bought >8 months ago for ~540.

Ya, the upgrade for the price isnt really worth it at all.

Definately not.

At this point you might as well keep the card until the new cards come out, sell for a decent return, and use that + the $200 (+ maybe a little more cash) and get the G90.
