this only applies to the 8800 gts?
I have just bought a GTX, I was wanting to hold out until the 8900s come out in november I think it was? but when I looked at the prices for a 8900 gts I could not be bothered :P

I'm very happy with my 8800 GTS - but then again this is my first new PC in about 5 years so I'm obviously not trying to squeeze out every layer. 96 layers compared to 112? I suppose that will be useful for Oblivion, but what will those extra layers do for GW?

Not much I suspect, if you can run it on maximum settings, not sure about the lower settings, besides it's not like Guildwars requires alot, it would be a different story if it ran on the Half Life 2 engine but it is designed so that most computers can run it regardless :P

What a strange thing to say! The Source engine is probably one the best optimised game engines around.
