IC, so its still better to stick with 7300GT for now and save RM100+ then..LOL..

And i jus got my 8800 GTS.. sigh...

all 8800 User, i hav 1 more question .... while i playing on warcraft 3... with my com.... i found tat the fps of the game is around 59 ( i type /fps in game new function of warcraft in 1.21a)
but my fren using 7900GS the fps is 65~70 OMG? my 8800 is sucks the a 7900?

You probably have vsync on.

good news 4 8800gts buyers but not 4 GTX though

I wonder how much GTX will drop in price at that time...

But probably better to save up and get G90 instead... hopefully there will be a RM1500 version of G90 high-segment...

Hard to say. If Ultra is to be priced at USD599, I think GTX will go down to around RM1700 or even less. If that's so, I might consider upgrading, getting a 2nd GTX if someone is to sell his for Ultra. Keeping eye on some forumers liao. Haha.

LOL..that means i also can wait for people to upgrade from GTS to the GTX/Ultra and grab it at an ultra low price as well..LOL..If only the GTS at that point is around RM600 for 2nd hand..

Haha yea, but RM600 for GTS is not possible as of now. Around RM1K range I guess. Just hope it won't drop too much. You just got yourself a great deal. How does it performs on a 22" WS LCD? Feels great right?

LOL..I do agree i got a good deal with irenic. Very nice price indeed. Performance?LOL..I havent even get my hands onto either of those. GC is still with irenic as he is posting it to me maybe today or tomorrow. Was about to COD with him today but he cant make it..LCD, its still at my hometown lying inside the box. Will get it by this weekend and test out the powerrr...

WOOOHOOOO!!! MY BFG 8800GTS 320MB OC2 is in the house!!!!

so can consider me officially a member of the 8800 series family

only thing is i still dont have the hardware to use it...still using my trusty AGP motherboard

I see. Have fun enjoying it. Be sure to check dead pixel on your LCD as well.

Wow... lucky you.

As for me.. I have to hold my decision of getting an 8800GTS for now... suddenly I have financial problems.. might take some time before I can officially join the green team...

Dead pixel had already been tried and tested before by my cousin at my hometown so i am pretty much sure its working fine. All i need to do i power it up with the most expensive (yet, a very cheap bargain) hardware i ever own and i can enjoy the best of it..Will post some benchmark if possible as i heard from irenic, his card can get very good benchmark even on stock...

Nah, i was about to ditch my plan on getting the 8800GTS last time and opt for the low 8600GT/GTS. I think you can see from my previous post as well. But thanks to EJ@1, he told me that irenic is selling his card at a very very cheap price and i just cant stand the temptation and grab the opportunity to buy it from him...If not, i am still on the 7300GT or the 8600GT/GTS..

Just wait for the right time and you will get a good deal..

i go in Nvidia CP force off vsync ....
but the fps still 60~63 just improved a few ....

its ok... who on earth will care for any fps greater than 40? as long as its stable and not fluctuating too much, its ok in any case, FPS isn't that important for RTS, esp on such an old game. And do u compare ur cpu with ur fren's? Coz faster CPU will contribute to more FPS

Yup, to the guy above who has constant capped frame rates, always disable Vsync. Easy way to tell is that it is constant and most commonly stuck at 60, 70, 75, 85... the same as your monitor flicker rate.

which brand of 8600gt is good? My budget is rm500, cannot more than that. I saw All IT sell gigabyte one rm500 and asus 528 like tat. And another question, my fren play online games like WoW and he is looking for better framerate becos when like 40man raid really cannot play one... changing from 6600gt to 8600gt will help alot? Or getting a 7900gs oc'ed one better? But maybe future there will be better dx10 online game coming out so dunno which to buy also..

For me, without a doubt, go for Galaxy if you dont mind the bundle is weak. CM cooler should be better than the reference one and Galaxy is a good OCer. Not sure whether they are preOced or not but since its from Galaxy, it should be..

From bulk sales, i only saw it going for about Rm485 which is below the RM500 mark..

the palit 8500gt sonic looks quite promising and also the galaxy 8500gt...both using ddr3 and both clocked at 600/1400 stock. anyone bought either of these cards yet? whats the OC'ability (is there even such a word? ) of these 2 cards compared to the ones clocked at the nvidia reference clocks
