Everytime i look to find a review of this card it pulls up laptops and deals for them... But no reviews.

I found a system, desktop, that uses this card and want to know if its any good.

Whats the difference between a 7900gt, gtx, gs... Anyone know?

If you have a page with reivews, or if you have expeirence with this card let me know what you think of it... How well does it work.

Welcome to the forum SaintAvalon,

Here are two reviews that I found right off.

Looking for the PCI-E version, not the AGP one.

Should of posted that the first time, forgot they started making the newer ones in agp too.

The first one is about the 7600 gs, not the 7900 :(

Where are you planning on buying this card? I don't see it anywhere....Send me a link.

Ahh, must be a Dell... I'd still like to see the link.

7900GS is equal to a 7800GT. 7900GT is better, 7900GTX is the best as far as single GPU nvidia cards go. That about sums it up.

It's a great card...I've run them (2 7800GT's) SLi and you wouldn't believe the frame rates (like FPS really matters that much, heh). If you are going to buy a Dell, I'd say that's a great choice.
