8800GT. At that price, the 3870 simply isn't worth it, especially when the 8800GT has an awesome custom cooler on it.

Thanks for the link. I wouldn't have thought the difference would be that much. Definately worth the extra $16. Thx!

I was debating the same choices between the eVGA 8800GT and the HD3870. I chose the 8800GT and I don't regret it one bit

Yeah. That's what I went with. I am so psyched. My parts will be in tomorrow! After 4 years, I'm finally putting a new box together.
