I just upgraded to an 8800GTS 512 from an x1900xtx that blew up. My main games these days are The Witcher & Eve-Online. I play @ 1280x1024 19" native LCD res on my old Athlon64 4000+.
I don't have the money to upgrade CPU/RAM/Mobo yet, so I was a bit pissed that I might have to buy an excellent card with such a crappy CPU. Those thoughts vanished when I first loaded both games.
My 1900xtx had trouble keeping the 30+FPS @ medium settings in The Witcher and the new EVE-Online premium graphics were giving it a headache with too much action. The 8800GTS 512 doesn't break a sweat running both at the highest settings, highest AF & AA, HDR, highest bloom, etc...
EXTREMELY happy with this card.
