can some1 tell me wad is the different between nvdia n ati?

i need speed more than previous card..

name.

haiya, lantak larr good news or bad news.. after a year, im gonna change it anyway

Aww man This doesn't sound like a good news.

i think mypc has no more stock on the strider, i didnt see it there last few time i went........ ask them to recommend, they always have quite some good stuff there.........

side panel got 3 fan 2 feeding cool air 1 exhausting.......

shawty's colour 8600GT UE seems to be quite performing...........making itchy change my 6600GT to this

Do take note that the new revision of Colorful 8600GT Ultra Edition comes in Dual Bios which made mADmAN upset because his Colorful 8600GT Ultra Edition doesn't come with the dual bios.

its just 2 diffrerent chipset. some people find nvidia better and some people prefer ati

Whats the advantage of dual bios? Not that we flash the bios to unlock anything. Save different speed settings?

normally it's for backup BIOS, say we flashed wrong BIOS version, and we unable to boot up (single BIOS) - quite hard la, but iamgine on dual BIOS, just switch the jumper (usually using jumper), voila, you are done with secondary backup BIOS, of course you can do something already corruted BIOS, maybe reflash

There are no modded bios for 8600 around right? So kinda useless.
Few people would wanna change the ram timings and re-flash the bios for this card

Not true.
Your 8600GT Ultra can be reflashed into 8600GTS and runs perfectly on 8600GTS bios.

You just have to know where to find it.
But beware, i'm not responsible if anything happen.

hehe..coloruful start to do like galaxy did on the GE version of their cards hehe.......... i wander if they would include a voltage jumper for the coming cards hehe

edited, double post........streamyx problem.............

that's what Dual BIOS came for...

wasted my money for upgrade DX10 card screw microsoft

hey, it's not a waste, it's an investment

no point waiting ler...if u play the waiting game ull never upgrade ur rig...

just get the best u can afford now....

unless of course its the release date is very near than different story la

Relax mate... it's not like those games will also straight away use the new features anyway. It shud take times for that... and by that time.. most of use here might already change to the next gen card...


If there's a plan of upgrading... just go with it. At least for me.. I don't feel sad or have any regret at all since my 6800GT is too weak to play most games already... so it is a good investment for me...

I agree with your point there.

At least i know my investment now is allowing me to play most of the games at maximum details i can have at the moment. Well, this card might still last quite a while before DX10.1 is fully utilize. The waiting game will never be over if you feel you wanted to wait for DX10.1.

i still felt 8800GTS 320mb a good investment, lots of improve compare to 7900GS or 7950GT which i plan to buy earlier.............

yeap, it's true, IMO, 320MB 8800GTS any brand will do is the best bang for card and performance...
