The 8600 is not better than the 7900.
One's a midrange card, the other is a high-end.
The midrange cards of the follow-up generation are generally never better than the high-end cards of the previous generation, they do however come close and are generally cheaper. You'll pay 250 - 400 for a high end 8000 series card, you'll pay 150 - 200 for a midrange card which will come close.

That really confuses me... one generation should be better than the last one.

That's not how it works.
Else my 150 euro card would be better than a 300 euro card, who would still get the 300 one...?
(And people would feel ripped off if 2 months after they've bought a card for 300 euros, a better one gets released at 150 euros...)

Except that the mid-range 8800 GT 512 MB pwned the previous gen GTX and GTS.

i would have thought that the new gen would also cost more than the old gen.

I wouldn't call the 8800GT midrange, it's really more of a high-end card.. The real midrange cards of the 8xxx series were the 8600GT, 8600GTS which completely sucked  . |

Yea, the quality is the worse thing i've seen on COH but I thought it was worth posting to see the heavy armoured attack.
Check it out.

Thtb, might I suggest removing some of those low res screenshots on ModDB? (some screenshots of the first series you've posted, the calliope ones etc are great though so definately not those!). No offense but when you want to promote a mod or game through screenshots, this is always done on higher settings because it's much more appealing. I love the second series you posted though, they're cool . (The spawn protection, vet 3 & battlefield) I'll remove some of mine too, the ones that aren't really special. |
