Ok... direct compare time.EVGA 512-P3-N841-AR 8800GTS (G92) -Core Clock: 670 MHzStrm Procs: 128Mem Clock: 1940 MHzPrice: $230 after MIR (NewEgg 4/8)EVGA 512-P3-N808-AR 8800GT AKIMBO SuperClocked -Core Clock: 720 MHzStrm Procs: 112Mem Clock: 2000 MHzPrice: $220 after MIR (NewEgg 4/8)How does the stream procs v. clock speed relationship work? Does the slight difference in memory clock matter?Tom's fresh new Best Video Cards guide says the GTS is still on top, and I assume it is for stock cards. I just don't know how much the factory overclocked idea plays in to the decisionmaking.~Nate

Hi Nate,My preference is for the G92 based GTS. It's a little faster than the GT though, that is not the only reason. The GTS is a dual slot card that blows the heat out the back of the case. The GT' fan blows down into the case as this is a single slot card. For only a $10 difference, I would definately opt for the GTS.I don't believe stream procs or clock speed are a big deal in this case, only accounting for a 5%-10% speed bump. Both cards have a 256 bit bandwidth. Best Regards, Jeff

The GTS cards use GPU chips that are the "SLACR/GO"s of that GPU series. In english, that means a GTS uses the same chip, but will overclock better than the same chip you would find in a GT.The GTS will easily out-clock the GT with only the swish of a Rivatuner slide bar. 750 is easy. 770-780 is where they'll generally go. Go for the GTS. (BTW, 720 sounds Very optimistic for a GT. I would be very careful about that one.)
