Handy little website my mate showed me last night to compare graphics cards n stuff as I was thinking of upgrading my current 6600gt to twin 6800gs in sli. The site shows you average framerates for each card, in sli mode etc on a variety of games - most handy to see if its actually going to make much difference etc before you spend your cash.

Lots of other stuff on there as well I think - havent had chance to browse it yet.

Hope it helps for those like me who didnt know about it!

if you are looking for comparisons like that, just write f.ex

"6600 gt vs 6800gt sli" in google and you will find loads of sites, dont just rely on tests from one side, you cant trust anybody in a market with such a moneyflow, so double check sources and compare tests with other tests.

Tbh, dont buy 2x 6800 gt, they still costs more than a 7900 gt, and the 7900 gt performs better, uses less power and you only need to buy one new cooler to have it run quiet.

and if you want a quiet GPU fan, i can surgest the zalman VF900-cu, but be sure to check if it fits on your card :)

Yeah, Toms Hardware is a site I visit daily, they have some good comparisons.

What I'd love to know, though, is which more mainstream games Camelot is 'most like' from a graphical perspective, so I know which benchmarks to pick on (as it's mainly Camelot I play).
