Anyone knows is there any 8600GTS that comes with Black PCB?And is it a good buy now considering the Palit 8600GTS cost about RM700 only?
And anyone that had been to CYCOM before?Care to check out the Galaxy 8600GTS price?Its stated in their pricelist at RM720 (Promotion) but there is another Galaxy 8600GTS Zalman at RM8XX..If the RM720 is also using Zalman, then its a great buy for me..

I can only see one or two company using their own board only. Most of them are using the green PCB.I was hoping XFX release a Black PCB but they only did on the 8600GT..Too bad though..

IMO, its not worth to buy 8600gts at all. Why? For rm500, u can get 8600gt which is a stripped down version of GTS, with the exact same core. Top up rm300 more u can get Palit 8800gts 320MbAnd anyone that had been to CYCOM before?Care to check out the Galaxy 8600GTS price?Its stated in their pricelist at RM720 (Promotion) but there is another Galaxy 8600GTS Zalman at RM8XX..If the RM720 is also using Zalman, then its a great buy for me.. or wait for 8800gts price to drop till rm700 or so, hopefully it will happen end of this year, 8800gts has the performance that even SLIed 8600gts cant match, 8800gts has 96SP, 3 times more than a 8600 This post has been edited by dattebayo: May 18 2007, 12:35 PM |

Top up rm300 more u can get Palit 8800gts 320Mb Well, i am looking for a replacement urgently for now and i could not wait for so long though.Currently looking into 2 of them which is the 8600GT and GTS. Still thinking of which to get. The reason i am looking into the GTS is i have a feeling of - if i could afford a GTS, why i wanted to lower it to the GT. Of course, not all GTS is affordable. Those are in the range of RM700. I could not top up more to get the 8800GTS cause i already max out my budget. Anyway, waiting for the 8800GTS to drop to around RM700 seems irrelevant to me. The reason is, how long would the waiting takes.End of the year maybe?And by that time, people would look into other solution as well at the same time..or wait for 8800gts price to drop till rm700 or so, hopefully it will happen end of this year, 8800gts has the performance that even SLIed 8600gts cant match, 8800gts has 96SP, 3 times more than a 8600 Anyway, i have seen 8600GTS selling for about RM680+. Seems like its dropping and a good deal to me if i could afford. Hopefully by the time i get it, maybe next week, it would reach around RM650 or lower. lol...Anyway, the problem that is bothering me now is that i might not be able to use my Zerotherm anymore in these new GC. And it would be a waste though..Thats why i am looking into those that are running their own PCB like Galaxy that seems to be able to fit the Zerotherm.. |

QUOTE(toughnut @ May 18 2007, 01:50 PM) Well, personally for me, at first, i do feel that the GTS is not worthit due to its high price. But now at below RM700, i do feel it will be a wise choice to those who have it. I still havent see anyone that is using the GTS commenting about anything though which makes me wanna try it out and see..lol..If given that it can be OCed even higher, i guess its worth the money.. |
