whoaa..like that i dont need to game edi lah wayyy off topic already lah

hmm..if i remembered correctly,the FX5900 was a high end card right?

i have one quite silent fan, should fit your g3 nicely. pass 2 u when we meet up.

Thanks, bro. Now i have to silent my rig, too noisy and frust especially when doing project now..........

yup, it was a nice card but the fan quite noisy, the blower type. I managed flash to 59ultra use for sometime before change to 98pro.

eh, you have ultra90 right? Share your pic. I just wanna know how well it fit on your mobo.

this is my pc.

5900 was a good card last time.Can said quite high end already last time.The most high end one was 5950 ultra with 450/850 on the card by default if i am not mistaken.

yup, some even have flash to 5900xt to 5950u if not wrong.

yeap ultra90. here it is this was when my pc was lying on the floor.now its upright and there's no more 8cm fan on the rams edi and my pc's super messy



still remembered last time the FX5900 series were going for more then rm1k

If you have a good system like 3.xxGHz and above proc,you will be able to drive the 5900 card(o/c speed) to 6500 points in 3D mark 03. Indeed got quite number of people was flashing the 5900XT to the 5950ultra also. I did this before to 5900 ultra and 5950 ultra.Actually is not much difference but just the core and memory will be set to higher speed in default after flashing both image. Actually no need to flash them also can drive the display card speed to those level.

It depends on the ns of the memory chips in the GPU
1st revision from Leadtek is the best, can OC to 5900U speeds at default
Thats what I am using

nice and fit perfectly on p4p800x. is your ram very hot?
spend sometime unplug all th cables and rearrange them properly then will be better


last time i did try to run 03 around 7k i think. its a nice card. even the 98pro didnt score that well. But in 05 tht different story. I deleted my 59 result in orb just left my 98pro result.

yeah it fits but the heatpipes is slightly blocking the nb heatsink.so i doubt i can change it to a 3rd party one like the HR05 or smth

i put the fan there to cool down my rams and mobo..cuz after changing to the Ultra90 i noticed that the mobo temp increased

im soo lazy to rearrange my cables right now..i'll do it when i change my casing

But in official, 98pro still way way better due to its architecture

I just have a question to ask.

If i upgrade from my current 9800Pro to 7600GT is there any significant improvement in terms of gaming? Im not that hardcore gamer, just that currently looking a card to prolong my system. If im not mistaken, 7600GT is 12pipe card rite?

Hope is not too over-topic.

hr05 shouldnt be a prob as it is flat and tall, not bulk up. You ever try add a fan blow on NB?? I think it may help. You wanna change the nb sink with hr05??

I not too extreme and nb cooling is not a big issue for me. But the nb heatsink is hotter than my xp120 headsink.

fx5900 didnt really show the performance in dx9 gaming like what we expect in 3dmark03. 98pro is a better choice.

yup 7600GT is 12 pipelines
Way way better than ur 9800 pro

even the 6600GT can beat the 9800PRO flat

If you wish to prolong the life of your rig, i dont get something too expensive or high end else your processor will hold back the performance of your card.

*Thinking back on my previous x1950pro on 3.4c.

I think it is better for you to get a second hand 6600gt or new 6800xt. A better choice compare to 7600gt.

OFF Topic:

Anyone from here going to Lan Party tomorrow? I want to see 478 rig in action, man.

*Looking for pengster. He stay nearby ss15

@irangan
Im just searching for a card that can handle current game without many glitch. Just say at 1280*1024 resolution without those eye candy stuff.

Compare to your previous 1950pro, indeed the proc is bottleneck. The card itself need plenty of raw processing power if compare to 7600GT.

Regarding the 6800XT, it seems like the card is good but it is using DDR2 and yet a level behind of 7600GT.

Anyway, still deciding whether upgrading my card is worth.

KahLoon,go ahead if you want to change your card to 7600GT.I support you here.Your system still be able to drive the 7600GT well.Compare to irangan's case,he was using X1950 PRO with his 3.4GHz proc. The most strongest card in AGP line,my opinion is the card still be able to run well in his system but due to our architecture is holding the card's performance a bit behind(Netburst).Yet we all know that if pur system compare to C2D which is no way to compare as their ICP for processor is 4 while S478 is 2 only.That's the overrall view about S478 and C2D.
