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..

Both 7900GS and 8600GT are good enough for WoW , your friend can choose whichever he wants (most probably the 8600 because its newer , 8>7 tongue.gif)

But if you want to enjoy other higher end games , then getting the 7900GS is definitely better , 7900GS is faster than the 8600GT in all of the tested game , the only benefit of 8600GT is DX10 which currently not utilized yet.

8600GT cheaper?Should only be around RM10 - 20. 7900GS now are going for around RM499 brand new while 8600GT cheapest should be around RM475. Not much difference there. Many people here are still wondering how good will having a DX10 card be and it still remain a mystery. One would say, get DX10 because it will future proof abit but what if the situation goes wrong?Let say, 8600GT are not able to handle DX10 properly?That would result to an upgrade as well right..Therefore, its just a gamble here on which to take. 7900GS is tested and proven on DX9 platform that it will beat the 8600GT but yet, still no benchmark on DX10 as off yet. Take your pick...

EDITED:

Anyone knows whether MSI 8800GTS in Malaysia come bundled together with COH or not?Reviews are stating it is but not sure in Malaysia thouugh..

I hae both the 8600GT from Galaxy OC version and the 7900GT XFX 520core..

Both are good cards but the performance got good and bad.
As for 8600GT cards, the benchies for the 3Dmark05 and 06 is always higher but the 3Dmark for the 01&03 is lower, maybe because of the VS and the pipeline. But when come to 3D shooting gameplay, the picture is nice... but the Frame rate is lower compare to 7900GT.

As for the 7900GT, the 3Dmark05&06 sucks... game play is about 15 to 20% higher especially in the 1st person shooter game. I notice it when i play the GhostRecon.
Both got good and bad la.... but for me game play is more important because you wont be buying a card just to test the 3Dmark right....

8600GT
- New, DX10, nice graphic

7900GT
- Old card,no DX10, but optimum performance for the current game. Might loose to 8600GT in DX10 game in future...

hope this help... smile.gif cheers thumbup.gif
