QUOTE(sniper69 @ May 27 2007, 08:25 PM) 450W true power is ok, 450W cap itik PSU is no-no... yeah thats what i tot at 1st  , no offense, but that's the truth, better be safe than sorry... , IMO, get 500W true power, like Enermax, Silverstone, FSP, OCZ, or any other reputable brand... i tot of getting real power 550W just 4 safety at 1st  |

QUOTE(akachester @ Jun 14 2007, 08:44 AM) Dont take cheap as something that shows it is bad. Palit is a very good brand and always known for their OCing potential. They might be cheaper but they are offering the same performance and reliability as well... haha then i will test it out again lo Received my 8800GTS today and was so shocked to see how big this card is..So surprised to jump from what i thought to be a very "big" card 7300GT to this 8800GTS..lol..Will put it to test tonight and see how thing goes..But it will be tested on my 17" CRT for now before i get my LCD this weekend..LOL.. wah so fast u upgrade again after less than 1 month with yr 7300GT |

QUOTE(chlow6 @ Jul 1 2007, 02:42 AM) My current MOBO don't but i am changing it to a gigabyte motherboard with a dual core e2140 processor. That portion of the budget is taken care of,i just want to ask if i can fork out Rm 500-600 and will be running Win xp for a long time,is it good to get a mid range 8 series card (looking at the 8600gt) or a 7 series card? better get high end 7 series instead since the price reduction is real huge...ask yourself how long evrybody gonna switch 2 vista now...so 4 now better use XP for another 2 years maxWill a 8 series card be a waste of money if i use it in win xp?
