No, the GT does not "win".

The 64 extra bit on the memory bus aren't going to make much difference in performance.
Where as the extra 100Mhz memory clock on the GS and the extra 50Mhz core clock will.

Performance should be on-par if not superior.

I still say it's a type-o, and I say that you are condesending. If you really thought I'd be stupid enough not to notice the difference in memory bus, you'd have to be pretty pathetic to call me out on it.

4 more rops, and and the memory bus, the GT will win.

If nVidia doesn't be careful soon they will find themselves competing in sales against who else but themselves!

Although the sound of a GS model is pretty cool though. It will fall in between the gap of the HD3850 and HD3870.

Exactly the whole point of buying this card. I don't think it would hold the card back much after a RAM overclock.

Guys think this thing would match that of G80 GTS?

Alot more GS will be available due to many G92s not making it up to GT Speeds, usually the inferior chips make for the lower cards.
If they dont have enuff 8800gt's to supply,how the hell will they have enuff of these?

In the long run, it doesn't really matter how they make the card, what will matter is how it performs.
