sounds like ur compensating for not having a GTx..
Face the facts GTS is the homebrand / crap version of the GTX.. GTX isnt just for HI end monitors, its for gamers who want the best performance for all the new games in the near future.
Crysis is a huge benchmark, ppl have ran it with a GTS and got bad FPS lag even on low end monitors, GTX runs it fine at all sizes and detail levels.
Its the next step in gaming and if u want to say a GTX is only for hi res monitors then dont upgrade but i will garentee you a GTS will not give u performance needed for the next-gen pc games in the near future.
The benchmarks rate GTX > GTS at huge increases its not just a price / monitor thing, you pay for what you get.
In every version of Nvidia chips the GS / GTS flags do not carry the performance of the chip version but act as a cheap version which is really using features such as Dx10 without the needed performance of the AA engines coming with it. Its a total waste of money buying the GTS / GS flags in Nvidia.
dude
I spent 1 grand on my screen its HD 24inch Asus best screen out atm.
I bought Asus P5K Delux, 8800Gtx OC version, Watercooling, Antec 182 Silver Ed, 4GB Ram, 6850 3.0 OC to 3.6 and its in AUD not british.
I don't know how technically aware you are but not amazingly by the looks of things. The GTX does perform better than the GTS at lower resolutions, but barely. Does it compensate for the extra £150 it would have cost me to get a GTX when I'm not gaming at a resolution where it would start to really pull away from a GTS? The big fat fuck off answer is no as I would also have had to replace my excellent 600W PSU due to the GTX drawing so much power and my Seasonic not having two power connectors. I made the right decision and would never get a GTX because the ninth series of nVidia cards are out in December making yours an also-ran for a much higher price.
Also one thing: don't ever talk to be about "next-gen PC games". The PC doesn't have set generations like shit consoles do as it progresses much faster and isn't burdened by one massive release every 3-6 years.
In the link below you'll see that the 8800GT looks rather good considering the price and the benchmarks show that at low resolutions the advantages of a GTX are rather minimal. Remember: I've stated at anything over 1680x1050 it pulls away because it does. I have no problem with you owning a GTX but that you come on here telling everyone they're shit for not having one is utterly mindless. I'm not into wasting money. I could've bought a GTX but decided not to spend the additional £200 or so (GPU and PSU) for improvements I wouldn't even notice. My 8800GTS is yet to struggle in a single game I've played at any resolution all with maximum detail.

you have a 24" HD and you run it at 1650x1050, wtf is that, at least have it at 1920x1200. and btw that isnt the best.
i got x1650 512mb and plays choppy.
