what you mean don't have enuff umphh... you mean like xfx don't give games bundle and all those stuff...??
*
they lack in bundles but superior in warranty(longer time) and support
for bundles they change from time-to-time(monthly)
you can check at their official website

plus they have much choice in OC variants(non-reference card)

if you looking for bundles and stuff brand like MSI do wonders rclxms.gif rclxms.gif
bundles all those stuff that sometimes u dont even install tongue.gif

ahha... what will most likely affect me is the games included with the bundle... for warranty.. why not go for BFG?? Much superior warranty they have to offer... brows.gif
*
IMHO, XFX offered much superior warranty
lifetime warranty for 2 owners
mean if you sold the card to the 2nd owner,
they'll still get the warranty

for BFG and EVGA, the warranty only applied to the 1st owner smile.gif
if you sold them right away, tadaaaaaa....the warranty is gone

is tht neccesary two owner's warrenty...?
change of new gc is so darn fast, wht's the point having life time warrenty...?
later icchi hand sure go change new gc again, seldom see ppl use it for so long...
*
when you want to sell you card later,
your card will have higher value coz the buyer still can have the warranty

no, im not promoting any brand
when i want to promo ill do it in my respective thread
im just stating the facts, coz most buyers dont even read the terms

I wonder why didn't those brand release a "slightly different" version of 8800GTS?? Except for the Calibre... all of them are on reference design...

Galaxy shud put a Zalman cooler on their 8800GTS...
*
i'm pretty sure i read a while back that the reference cooling designed by Zalman smile.gif

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jun 13 2007, 12:26 AM)
the only cooler available for the 88 series now is the thermalright HR03.

calibre oso still on reference design ler....just the cooler only different. even then...i read a review that wasnt really impressed with the cooler.
*
nope, Calibre using OEM/ODM from MACS cooling
Saprkle is using reference design

For now, i am not really sure whether there is going to be DX10 or not on Windows XP. Vista is confirmed for sure. About playing DX10 games wise, i doubt they will create a full DX10 game that would not be able to run on Windows XP. Maybe there might be some kind of step down firmware that allows DX10 games to be played on Windows XP but running on DX9.If they really create DX10 games that would not be able to run on XP, thats going to cause alot of commotion..LOL...This are all my assumptions though..

Halo2 only for Vista rite?
but its not full DX10 game though doh.gif

that 8600GT UE is actually consider cheap liao
back in may i bought the galaxy OC ed. at rm530 doh.gif
then sell it at rm 430 in june cry.gif
now the new one merely sold from rm460 doh.gif

but one thing is unfair now, why 8600 GTS and above don;t suffer from major price drop ? 8800GTS still rm1k + vmad.gif
*
only 86GT and below had cost price cut down by manufacturers
hence resellers can put lower price

one thing i tell you, 88GTS 320 price havent change since its first release
sell it a lower price means stabbing a knife into our own chest doh.gif doh.gif

Eh guys... the difference gap between 8800GTS and 8800GTX. Is it big?? Suddenly I got some naughty idea to change my GTS to GTX. Do you guys think its worth it??
*
they r in different league
different ball game

comparing them in low resolution is just plain absurd
take a look at high resos bench with all eye candy enabled
it is where the GTX shines and GTS crawl brows.gif

p/s: wow..bnyk duit bang?? sweat.gif
