GeForce 8800 Ultra | 8800 GTX

After doing a review about ATI Graphic Card : HD 3870, now the time for nVidia graphic card which is the GeForce 8800 Ultra and GeForce 8800 GTX. This card is faster than HD 3870 in term of memory clock which is 2.16 GHz memory clock and for the core speed this cards can go up to 612 MHz core clock. The cooler also is quieter than previous card, GeForce 8800 GTX. From what I've read, this card is overclocked a bit from GeForce 8800 GTX so this mean this card is a bit faster than 8800 GTX and the perfomance increase about 10% to 15 %. So here is the difference between 8800 Ultra and 8800 GTX:

GeForce 8800 GTX

* Memory Speed : 900MHz actual|(1.8GHz effective)
* Memory Capacity : 768 MB

Hurm, 8800 Ultra surely a bit faster than 8800 GTX but the price range between these 2 cards quite big. For the best case scenario, you can get 8800 GTX for $450 meanwhile $631 for 8800 Ultra and the difference between the price is $181. So, for gamers out there who don't like the sound made by GTX can go get this GeForce 8800 Ultra for extra fast, quieter and less power consumption. :)
