Surely a bargain buy here

Anyone know if it's worth upgrading to that from an X800GTO?

8600GT is somewhere between a 7600GT and a 7900GS, but gets poorer as you add AA.

£47.45 delivered for this card - imo the 7800GTX for £51 delivered from eBuyer was a better deal...

According to this the 8600gt is a cut above the 7900gs? even faster than the 7800GTX?

8600GT has DX10. Thats it's it's ONLY redeeming feature. It has a very narrow bit bus, and so it's not good for lots of AA or a high resolution. Those charts are, imo at least, stupid anyway, as ever time they get made the OP cant be bothered to update them. The 7800GTX is actaully faster than a 7900GS (and a 7900GT) - the 8600GTS is about as good as a 7900GS is not a little worse, the 8600GT is between a 7600GT and a 7900GS.
