Added on September 26, 2007, 11:49 pm QUOTE(ianho @ Sep 26 2007, 10:48 PM) I reckon they're all the same. Just dont buy the OC versions to be safe. Unless the OC versions come with special HSF. Totally agree..and he is talking like for 8800gts.. i suppose the ACS3 that would be the only one i would actually pay for it the price was reasonable.. but unfortunately it aint This post has been edited by cstkl1: Sep 26 2007, 11:49 PM |

QUOTE(overclockalbert @ Sep 27 2007, 03:36 AM) @uncle, biggerthe chips dimension same as C2D IHS dimension? the GTX was build under 65nm tech or still 90nm? iirc, GTX have triple transistor count compare to C2D. more like the athlons |

QUOTE(tycheah_7 @ Sep 27 2007, 12:50 PM) i've also paid for xfx8800 gts... a good buy ? i hope so depends..on GPu revision... as far as i know after talking to xfx contact directly the A2 revision .. they are getting rid of some of their older stocks are cheaper than the A3 revision. so its a gamble on what ure going to get... but then.. if ure not so much to overclocking.. hell just get it.. also u need to check the warranty. As far as i know asia is limited to a 2 year warranty via distributor. |

Hmm i hope the ppl who buy will note down the revision no..
how just use riva tuner, go to target adapter, customize, graphic systems info in the report look at nvidia extended information the revision should be there.. post it.. ty FOR MSI 8800gts and XFX 8800GTs..post screen shots... others are welcome also .. please do so.. then can see the oc ability of the current batch.. would be better if u can even tell me GPU batch no but u have to remove the HSF to do that.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « revision A2 bro.... have u tried clocking it.. as far as i have tried it has problem going to past 1566 shader clock.. revision A3 is similar to the ultra but with less stream procs.. just finished with the HR03 plus just now and taking pics.. later need to add watermark. will be posting the shot of the GPU heatsink with the batch no and revision. so far HR03+FM123... ( kekek even tested two of fm123...geee will post that later) temps on single fan - Idle 42/ Load 56... on no artifact 24/7 guaranteed 702/1728/2160 revision A3... rocks.. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « need to AS5 to sink in a bit...then will compare with MX2.

QUOTE(StratOS @ Sep 28 2007, 06:53 PM) GTX is cheaper now... but over rm1k still too much for me.. uik.. werent u the guy who was thinking for getting two 8800gts.. just got an msi card to test its A2 also.. i think all the msi cards are a2.. hence the cheap pricing also for buyers of xfx 8800gts from strong baby please state the version no on the box.. would help future buyers..

QUOTE(kmarc @ Sep 29 2007, 03:41 PM) Ok, tested for almost 2 hours with ATItool. No artifacts but core temp shot up to 83'c.... wei bro.. was asking for the revision no too.. Hot day today.....Going to test with games later on.... Max I could get for my card is 648/1620/972mhz...... Not as high as some forumers card....  Shader clock at 1674 mhz will cause artifacts....... Edit : Hmmmm.... anybody tried underclocking the shader clock? Wonder how low it can go.....  didnt have to show the ati tool part... its on riva tuner next to the monitoring buttong.. graphic diagnostic report.. curious as to what evga superclocked revisions are running. ps the core temps are ok.. its being loaded... somore idle around 67. if this was the gtx/ultra it would be at 93-94 ... and take note the 680 mobo they mentioned is with MCP55XE striker extreme has this with the a1 This post has been edited by cstkl1: Sep 29 2007, 05:47 PM |

QUOTE(ianho @ Sep 29 2007, 08:35 PM) Well, I'm very sure that if the rumour proves to be true, Thermalright will be hard at work designing a low profile 2 slot solution cooler. Then shud be able to use all 3 cards with Thermalrights again. down clocked the shader clock???Anyway, after installing Rivatuner 2.05 today, with the 3 sliders, my hands got really itchy to push my system a lil bit more. Still sum left in the rig but I'm happy enuf with the current score now. 18044 marks in 3DM06.  [attachmentid=303404] ish ish ish QUOTE(kmarc @ Sep 29 2007, 10:42 PM) Yeah, I saw your post in the 3Dmark database. Nice. nice Was actually gonna ask you why you didn't OC the shaders too.... could have gone higher than that...  Anyway, I just finished testing my 8800 GTS 640mb at 648/1620/972mhz. 11452 marks in 3Dmark06..... ian had one the first batches of the gtx... so a bit difficult to stabalize.. my bet..either that or he didnt know that at 648 his shader default is 1512 This post has been edited by cstkl1: Sep 30 2007, 12:16 AM |

QUOTE(kmarc @ Sep 30 2007, 07:13 AM) That's ok. Your CPU is the bottle-neck. Compare with mine on 3Dmarks06 at stock GPU settings but CPU OC to 3.5Ghz: eh i think both also bottleneckSm2.0 : 3970 HDR/sm3.0 : 3782 CPU : 3020 Total : 9295 compared to mine at 3ghz sm2.0 : 5502 sm3.0 : 5384 cpu : 2661 3dmark06 score = 11763 This post has been edited by cstkl1: Sep 30 2007, 02:38 PM |

QUOTE(PGV3910 @ Sep 30 2007, 03:16 PM) single or sli bro? QUOTE(kmarc @ Sep 30 2007, 05:01 PM) Waaaiiitt a second. That can't be the scores for a stock 8800 GTS! My results was for stock settings...... x6800@333x9And how come your CPU score lower? What CPU is that? XFX 8800gts 320mb +HR03+FM123 (avatar) single overclocked....48 hours no artifacts ati tools ( driver overclocking.. will be flashing it later and trying my best to hit 12k...) ddr2 pC2-6400 cl4@667 CL5 11500 score for X6800@9x333 XFX 8800gts Stock cooler Single Overclocked... 24/7 no artifacts no artifacts ati tools. (bios flahed and some mem timings adjustments) ddr pc2-6400 @ 667 CL5 dud ure cpu at 3ghz... the gpu pulak bottleneck.. so no point overclocking your cpu so high... programs running on the background.. utorrent downloading, antivirus.. etc so the true potential of this cards is amazing This post has been edited by cstkl1: Sep 30 2007, 06:26 PM |

QUOTE(kmarc @ Sep 30 2007, 06:44 PM) I see. Even with max OC on my GC (stock cooling), couldn't reach those scores for SM2.0 and HDR/sm3.0. okay...Did you compare to see how much more headroom you can OC (core/mem) if you use the HR03 compared to stock heatsinks? Tempted to get the HR03. However, if the OC is only slightly more, then not really worth it (for me).... No la, my rig is OC at 3.5Ghz for folding.... To me, 3.5Ghz is the sweetspot in terms of core temperature, vcore and CPU fan noise..... its like this the headroom part... u need to check the shader/core/ram.. for artifacts... y?? cause u will know when u hit a heat wall , and ure vgpu wall ( ususally total crash of window.. hang etc...) , vram ( usually windows will get like lines.. becarefull if not bye bye graphic card) then only u can test the overclocking for the stocking cooling.. it was like at the border of the heat wall.. i adjusted the bios mem timings a bit to a looser one ( not advisable unless u know what ure doing) and then it was ok... but for A2 so far.. i think the best u can get is around 621/1566/999 for 24/7 no artifact running and if u cannot hit this i would say u hit a heat wall ... with the HR03.. u should be able to run at 648/1620/1053.. no probs.. but again all this depends on ure casing cooling etc... cable management.. ure mobo temps.. ure cpu temps.. casing temps... like mine now after running it for 48 hours..with sometimes no fan running in the room... the max i saw was 61C. and at night around 56C. during load so far it looks like i hit the limit for the vgpu// anything more i need to volt mod.

well for the HR03 plus and whats your overclock limit etc
and the difference it makes y not asked the guy who said this.. "LOLZ! I dunno what? OC? LOLZ!" he can shed a light on the topic.. since he is the rep for thermalright.. also can state the reason for underclocking the shader ratio.. kekekek a 200 product to only to underclock the shader ratio .. and u can achieve those clocks with stock cooling... kekek heck i had to go to the store and buy one... errr still looking for a second OCeble GTX to show the total potential of one gtx with HR03 and doing sli.....kekeke the score is just INSANE...

QUOTE(HaHaNoCluE @ Oct 2 2007, 02:59 AM) this is really crazy... 18044??? congrats... shader score and oc on gc so low.. embarrassment for spending RM250 on the HR03 plus and a decent fan...kekeke... LOLZ...might as well use stock cooler and run the old riva tuner 2.03 then his itchy hand wouldnt have touch the shader clocks and actually down clocked the ratio....LOLZ... score would have been way higher LOLZ... if VT-Ten would have put a Quad proc in his benchies and ran at 3.6ghz would have beaten this LOLZ. 2 8800gtx with HR03 plus getting beat by 2 8800gts stock cooling...LOLZ Goes something like this Q6600 with XIGmatek HTC 12 something Price RM1000 P5n32eSLi Price 700 2 x XFX 8800gts price 2100 stocking cooling Beating ianho benchmark with huge ass coolers and a downclocked gtx that cost by atleast RM3500 more... PRICELESS. LOLZThis post has been edited by cstkl1: Oct 2 2007, 03:40 AM |
