I was looking at the 8600GTS Does it get you anything more than a lighter wallet?

I see its got more "gaming" ability based on the info on the nvidia website.

The GTS cards are required to support HDCP, where it is optional on the others. The GTS also runs at higher core and memory clock speeds. Also, the 8500GT cards typically have 1 VGA + 1 DVI port, where the 8600GT(S) cards have 2 DVI ports. I think that is probably about it.

Aloha,
Mike
