8800GTS X 2

So Im still running the dual 8800GTS series cards. Are they still pretty decent compared to some of the average new cards. I know they are kinda old but I have yet to run into a game that won't run well with these cards.

On paper it is about under a GTX 260. A 8800Gts comes with 96 cuda cores while a first gen GTX 260 comes with 192. But the Bus width is a lot lower and the core clocks. If you run everything fine now then there isn't reason to upgrade, but even getting a GTX 460 would be a good jump in performance with the addition of DX 11.
