Hmm..

Tomatomanz... seems like you are in the same boat as me now.. need to change casing just to upgrade a new gc...

Based on that site the total output in my 12v rails is 36A..

What is the requirement of GTX again??

My card default speed is 576/1350/1700. Until now, I use default settings in every games I play. Last time when I owned a 7300GT, I will overclock it just to have extra fps. As for gaming, most games I've tried fits my satisfication, like Test Drive Unlimited, C&C3, NFS series, GRAW, except STALKER. All games tried on native resolution 1920x1200 with everything max out. Do take note your LCD is on 1680x1050, processor speed to have effects on the FPS. I have tried playing Granado Espada with default clock speed of 1.86Ghz on my C2D, average FPS is about 25fps. After overclocks to 3.2ghz, 100% boost at around 55fps. That's on 1680x1050.

Your card default speed is 575/1200/1700. Shader clock is lesser, which will also affect the fps as well.

Added on June 19, 2007, 12:26 pmNo less than 30A is recommended. GTX will need 28A to be able to run. Pretty much depends on which model you get. Overclocked version will need more power.

Aight!, my worries are over!..

Juz had confirmation it will fit my casing considering GTX can fit in there too esp. since GTX its longer than GTS, which means GTS will fit juz great

Heres the proper picture of GTX in TT Tsunami Dream :-

Gotten that pic from forum which hes using GTX on his TT Tsunami Dream

Its funny that alot forums thought that TT Tsunami Dream or similar (Soprano and etc.) can't a 8800GTX.

Imo, all that its juz speculation that they thought it wouldn't fit, considering as u noticed those who said can't fit in are those doesn't even have GTS/GTX fitted in TT Tsunami Dream casing, all juz using sketches\diagram\drawings... cis..

Cheers

Well, i did not try OCing anything as off yet cause i dont mind running it as off now. I am satisfied but yet to try those graphic intense game. Maybe i try to OC it and see how.

How much would shader processsor influence a card?And is my 1200 the default shader processor for 8800GTS?

Default shader clock is 1200mhz. Core/shader clock will affect a card's performance the most compared to memory. 50mhz over the core is about same as 200mhz over the memory.

IC, i thought mine will have OCed Shader Processor as well...LOL...Have you tried OCing your eVGA and how far it can go?Wats your idle temp?

There is only some slightly fps difference affected by the shader clock only. I think Mad Shrimps had a benchmark review on more than 10 8800gts which can help you to clarified your doubt.
Mad Shrimps 8800gts 320mb Review

If you on a 22 incher, the 320mb should be ok enough but not too sure on a 24 incher. My 640mb still can handle most current games at 1920x1200 with max settings, 16x af and 2x or 4x aa. There only a few games which had lag with the settings such as in oblivion at wild with heavy grass scene, supcom where there are 100 over units bombarding a base.

Haven't done a real overclocking on my GTS up till now, quite lazy this while. For now, my idle temp is around 50c-52c.

darn... yesterday play game lag a moment... i was force to save and quite to main menu...
i oni put reso 1024x768 with 2xAA, shadow + 80% transparentcy for trees...
izzit too much for a small 8600gt to handle...?

My fan is set to 100% all the time.

OIC, using rivatuner?Is it possible to set it using NTune?

Im thinking getting MSI NX8800GTS 320MB OC-EDITION

Juz wondering, how loud are those GTS?... izzit loud?... coz my casing pretty near to me..

akachester : how much u bought yers?..

Cheers

I bought mine from irenic (2nd Hand). So the price might differ. LOL...

Anyway, he bought it at RM1.2k..

For me, i dont really hear any sound from the fan after closing the side panel. Maybe mine wasnt running at full speed but i dont hear anything other than my abit noisy Silverstone fan...

I use RivaTuner though.

Quite loud, but not as loud as 2900XT.

if ur willing to wait awhile...drop a PM to karom... he ordered an evga 8800GTS 320mb superclocked & a BFG 8800GTS 320mb OC2 himself which i think is just to fill up the MOQ. my guess is hell be selling it off.

arc_archive is also selling off his slightly used BFG 8800GTS OC2 in the garage sales for quite a bargain. try taking a look at those first before going for the MSI.

RM930 for BGF 8800GTS 320MB OC2 is real cheap, just strange no one is interested.

Based on discussion so far, I guess 8800 GTS 320 is more than enough for 19" Widescreen ...

I rather go with new card, even with cheaper brands like Palit 8800gts for RM990 is good enough for me, for me, I ll buy the new one when it comes to expensive stuff, longer warranty and peace in the mind
