i just buy a 9800GT and i want to change to GTS250 but i don know can change to whether 9800GT can soft mod to 9800GTX+ or not... just want to ask... if can then i can save money no need to upgrade to GTS250

Thanks for all those LYN Taikor in advance.... coz i not very sure on this issue...

can mod ah????

sure canot, if can no ppl will buy gts250..

cannot ar??? coz what i know is GTS250 is the replacement of 9800GTX+

since 9800GT and 9800GTX+ is the same core so should be can soft mod rite???

just my imagination lah... coz i also not too sure about this.... need some advice...

9800gt = 8800gt in 55nm, 9800gtx+ = 9800gtx in 55nm = gts250.

i can't get the picture here... can hengmy taikor explain on the statement??? sorry to say that i really noob here...

have u try google it?

google don have any info on this issue...

Dude, if there was, I'd have modded my gc long ago...

No, it cannot be done. The core is far from being the same

9800GT = 112 SP
9800GTX = 128 SP

You can't magically make the extra stream processor appear in the core.

u can't soft mod. u can only OC it to the max. Slap in a Big a s s HSF , volt mod = recipe for OC

The OC guru has spoken Yes, I agree to what Mr. kucingfight says and if you want to make it run super fast, go WC or a big HSF then a volt mod. The last time I did it on my 8800GT, it gave me some outstanding 3dmark scores and performance. Disadvantage = super HOT

wow...for real?...

Flashing of BIOS can make that. But, I am not sure about Geforce 9800GT to Geforce 9800GTX.
But, for laptop, I have seen Geforce 9800M GS flashed to Geforce 9800M GT for better performance!

That was crazy.
From GS to GT.
Somemore on laptop><"

oh... ok ok... means i need to upgrade my GC to GTS250 loh.... haiz....

another question is my GC is running in Standard Core Clock and Memory Clock but when i play games like Dirt or Dirt 2 when play around 10 min then the computer will hang a while... after 1 or 2 min then return back to normal.... after that another 10 mins then come again...

can any taikor tell me this???

my PC spec is :

- Core 2 Quad Q8300 2.5 Ghz
- Apacer 4GB DDR1333 RAM
- Asus P5P43TD PRO Mainboard
- nVidia 9800GT 256Bit 1GB Graphic Card
- Western Digital 1TB Caviar Green HDD
- ECS TV Card with FM
- Cooler Master Neon Light
- Cooler Master Meter Display
- Cooler Master Aquagate Viva for CPU Cooling
- Trasparrent Casing with 4 light fan
- Gigabyte Superb 720W PSU
- Sony Internal Card reader with built-in USB
- Sony DVD-RW
- BenQ DVD-RW

The performance gains from 9800GT to GTS 250 isn't really that much. I would recommend something else like 270 or higher.

Btw I'm using 8800GT and Dirt 2 runs fine w/o any slowdowns at all. Don't think it's hardware issue but something else

hardware diff, sure cannot

thanks for the advice.... but i just need a 9800 GTX+ spec is more then enough.... hehe...

so for the hang GC issue did anyone know how to resolve this???

OS issue? Usually that's the case when your OS becomes over crowded.

i'm using windows 7 utimate..... any one using windows 7 with 9800GT and play dirt 1 or 2 with this issue???

No, what I meant was, if you have plenty of "other" things installed on your OS it tends to give you that jerking effect. If you're sure that all the software you're running is acting like it should, then probably you could check your HDD and RAM =\

my software run smooth.... maybe is the hardware.... but normally should be ok rite??? coz i just brought the PC 1 month ago....
