I just got my subscription to Atomic and there is a review on the Gigabyte Duel core 6600GT in there and from the initial Reports from them this thing is a Screemer.They showed it besting a X800XT and SLI<ED 6600GTs in just about every benchmark?
The only letdown of this board i can so far see...
No im Not kidding ? To me 6800NU would be the minimum tradeup from a 9800Pro? As i will state again there is not Enough REAL WORLD gaming diffrence between a 9800 and a 6600GT to warrant the upgrade (IN MY OPINION).=yours may vary lol.
Me my Self, i wouldnt bother upgrading from a 9800Pro to 6600GT there just isnt enough of a boost in realworld performance.But if you can find the 6800nu for around $250 that would be a nice little jump. ;)
Fare points ;)
I think you read me wrong :confused: I was talkin about Macci and Opainter might be getting a test run on a reference model R520.I know an X850 even with 512 of ram would need to be extremely clocked to even hope to get that score.
But hopefully we shall findout more soon.
Well funny thing is everyone laughed at the inq when they said NV40 was gonna be a 16piped card?Then it was also laughed at when they first told of the 6800GT? Not bad rumors considering both were pretty much spot on.
I also think i read from somewhere i think it was beyond3d that macci and...
Well your buddy needs to either Fix his computer Check to see if the cards not faulty or You need computer lessons badly lmfao.
9600 runs HL1 AND HL2 very good? Got a 9600XT sitting in a friends computer right hear and at 1024X768 with 2XAA it pulling very playable Framerates?
To Topic if...
I would say just save the cash and see whats out in the 2Q of this year.The 9700Pro is still a Very good card. And a 6600GT while being better, isnt gonna have you passing out in awe with the power diffrence.
That card should work fine.Or if you can find a cheapo 9200 with DVI that would be better.And dont worry about some people in here there answer to nearly every thread lately is 6600GT SLI 6800GT lmao.
The 9200 is DX8.1 And a newer card so it will be a better option than the 7000.More driver...
As was already stated, No card stock off the market these days is Really quite?But with the help of something like a silencer or heatpipe solution. Your sound worrys are over ;) As for most powerful? Well thats all up to the users tastes these days? Oh and the color you like? Green or red are...
I have found this problem a few times with onboard graphics.A good trick that sometimes works is let it install the onboard but disable it in windows.Hope that works!
Thats the problem with ruineds threads! They tend to hang around like a bad fart knocking everyone over the head :eek: LMFAO!
To me Having both an X800 and 6800 i will be buggered if i can tell the diffrence? Apart from the drivers. where the (Poorware) drivers still leave a lot to be desired :p
poRN is a bugga to get off HD"S isnt it lmfao j/k Try this site and just download the 98 Bootdisk and your halfway there
http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm
Have you tried the repair function in your network settings and let it auto assign an ip?As i have had this problem with my home network and sp2?I just presssed repair and let it assign an ip and all was well?
I call shens on both sides :p ^^^ I own both a 6800GT and a X800XTPE ;) And the nVIDIA drivers are nothing short of PATHETIC for this range of cards.Shimmering Never ending betta BS constant game fuckups Broken Video playback.The list goes on ;) But the card its self is a Gem!
The X800XTPE is...
since we are talking PCI-E hear i would say get the 6800U.Because you get the capability of being able to SLI it and the SM3 no doubt will make at least some diffrence next year.

:eek: More sexy girlfriends looking at porn can only make the world a better place :p (Bad side affects=One very sick gaming rig=Spybot hijack this Then you should be solvered.
Remember Peoples Always Use Protection When Looking At Pron :D
To me anyone who says there is any image diffrence between the X800 Series and the 6800 Series is just seeing diffrences they (WANT TO SEE)? Both the cards i have, I have tested them both inside out and back to front. And the only diffrence i could find was of course the X800XTPE was a little...
Owning both a BFG6800GT and an X800XTPE i know which does 3D better to my eyes anyways :p i will leave it at that ;)
I agree with what the other people are saying in that the X800Pro really should of been marketed against the 6800NU not against the 6800GT ;)
Please God Make It Stop :eek: Owning both an Nvidia card and an ATI card I cant tell the diffrence :p They both play games both Cost$$$ to much?Both cause more Problems than the civil war and Worldwar2 combined.(I guess we will have to get used to this with holidays upon us more Children...
It would be really intresting to see how sli,ed 6800NU's stacked up against 6600GT's :) And nice to see the OVER CAFFINATED BUNCH :p Highjacking threads as always :mad:
I would have to agree with you on this Burningave101 ;) You pay good money for a game you expect quality in the product you are buying no?
All of my current games i have bought lately have got 1 jewel case 2 Some sort of manual.
Man their is so much hate on this board lately: TOO MUCH CAFFINE...
Personally i would say yes.As the 6600GT is quite an impressive little card even if it is an 8 pipelined card ;) It just has alround better newer Architecture than the 9800Pro.So i think you will se quite a nice jump in performance ;)
HDR definatly Looks better on the 6800 architecture no doubt about it ;) Tried both and 6800's iteration is very nice.But having said that both cards still dont have the power to make HDR truely shine?But next gen cards i really cant wait to see some of the great HDR affects ;)
Valve really need to get off there arses with this pretty quik as i get hitching currently in both my X800XTPE and my BFG6800GT :eek: wheres the patch valve :mad:
If the X800 is $100 cheaper than the 6800 then jump at it because apart from openGL the X800Pro is a slightly better card than the 6800NU ;) But that LedTek card certainly aint no slouch either ;)
(Unless you are running some really generic 300W PSU you will be right with power as both the...
This one hear i have seen a few Good things about(LeadTek 6800 with 256Mb 325core/700mem)And if you can get the extra pipes going with rivatuner you really just have a Leadtek 6800GT :p The extra ram will help abit more espessially if you get the 16 pipes happenin ;)
So i would say take the...
