QUOTE(Suk @ Jun 9 2007, 09:12 PM) i am sure, next time there are gonna Duo Core for GC. or even Quad Core instead of SLi correct me if wrong dual core GC already exist before, i remember Galaxy got announce a dual core GC for 7600GT and 7900GT. Honestly, the design for the card is really nice, but consume too much power, and the card's temperature is very high...  edit: LinkThis post has been edited by RokXIII: Jun 9 2007, 11:53 PM

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jun 26 2007, 08:55 PM)  guys...i know how to see PCIe slot etc etc... what i wanna know is...at what speed is the slot CURRENTLY running...  CPU-Z as suggested by sleepy is the only relevant answer to my question so far  (thanks!) will check with CPU-Z when i get home.  ..... i think all the PCIE graphic card is running on 16X speed, is that any PCIE GC running on non-16X PCIE slot?

QUOTE(akachester @ Jul 5 2007, 08:41 AM) LOL..So weird to hear when the max is 5.9. Anyway, i think i am going to install a new driver for my 8800 in XP to see whether the problem still persist or not.. have u try ATI Tool? It got a fan speed configuration function as well, it serve me quite well in handling the fan speed. btw, i not able to configure the fan speed by using speedfan 4.32....

QUOTE(NOX @ Jul 17 2007, 12:15 AM) 8500gt if ddr2 worst but i think ddr3 quite ok for budget gc.. even my fren 7300gt 128mb ddr3 can pawn my boss 8500gt ddr2 256mb.. from vista benchie.. weird.. haha.. no doubt a 8500GT with DDR3 will perform better, just like the previous 7300GT, DDR3 perform a lot better than the DDR2 version...

QUOTE(temptation1314 @ Jul 18 2007, 08:55 AM) Budget will be around 300-400. Rig specs is AMD X2 3600+ , mobo Biostar Tforce7050-M2, 2GB DDR2 667 RAM.... Not expecting to become hardcore gamer but only want to buy a wise budgeted gc as I think I'll change a better ones next year.  your budget just enough to get a 8500DDR2/DDR3, or just join the bulk that mentioned above which is Colourful 8600GT...

QUOTE(§layerXT @ Jul 27 2007, 12:41 AM) Try go to thundermatch, they may lower the price but not too much, how bout u go around LYP or IMBI and search for the best price. to be honest, i wouldn't suggest go to thundermatch.... i rather go to other shop like c-zone, cycom, pc-zone even if they are slightly expensive...

QUOTE(sHawTY @ Aug 8 2007, 01:06 PM) Arlo, i said earlier bought many graphic cards lar, so offcourse from many brands. And none of them has been rejected while RMA after changing heatsink fan and changing thermal paste. If you wanna change to 3rd party HSF, sure can, just remember when you wanna RMA, put back the original HSF lah, then send it back to the shop where you bought it. Put original HSF back on, then the warranty goes on like normal. Why you guys are so scared of it? It's not like they have the time to check 100% of the card either you did something to it.  Shawty is right. They wouldn't 100% check what thing that u have done to the GC. Like few months ago, I went to RMA my GC, before that I already reapply a new layer of TIM, but they still do the RMA process for me.

QUOTE(Irresistible @ Aug 13 2007, 12:05 PM) FYI, I m using 8500 DDR3 I read one of the topic (1+ month ago, someone ask 7300 or 8500 , most lowyater recommend 8500) I insist 8500 DDR3 better than 7300  , Shawty, my 8500 cost me RM 355, add RM50, & get from u 8600GT... well, if for 8500GT DDR3, it is better than 7300GT. But if it using DDR2, then very sure that it perform weaker than the 7300GT DDR3...

QUOTE(Demonic Wrath @ Aug 22 2007, 11:35 PM) Yea, because the fan is running slower. hence more silent.. I believe Silent series doesn't come with any fan... It just come with a heat sink which running as a passive cooler...
