I know this may sound like a stupid question, but how much of a difference is there between two NVidia 7300 gt 512 mb in SLI and 1 8800 gts 320 mb.

Thanks

Sorry, but it is a stupid question. You're comparing two ends of the spectrum. The 7300GT is low end...the 8800GTs is high end. It doesn't matter that it has 512MB & it wouldn't matter if you paired two up in SLi...the 7300GT is a crappy low end card. There are at least a dozen single cards that would easily beat the pair, but the 8800GTS would destroy them!

The 7300GT 512MB sells for about $50-60. Two would obviously cost $100 or more. For less than $100, you can get an 8600GTS.

The Only Stupid Question,is the one that's not asked.

Granted the 7300 is not a good choice for a video card...but how would he know if he didn't ask.


not everyone learns as quickly with computers...everyone learns at their own pace....

If It Isn't Broken Don't Fix It. !!!!

Obviously he already knows or he wouldn't have worded the question the way he did. Regardless, a little googling or a trip to Tom's Hardware would have turned up the answer.

Used to own a 7300gs which is slower then 7300gt(used to be fast at the time)until i came across a game "Lost Planet" i nearly cried when i got only 15fps .
threw the 7300gs across the room and made sure it broke in half ....now happy with a 8800gtx

8800gts would be 8-10 times faster than 7300gt sli mode

8600gts would be a nice choice for mid-rang gaming
