yeah..nowadays seems more and more people selling their GTS...maybe preparing for 9series edi?? xD

ya..i second that...

even 8600gts is some sort of overprice compare wif the performance it brings...

RM850~RM950 for 8700GTS??better buy second hand 8800GTS that do wonder for most nowadays game...

surely the GTS fatality will be much hotter compare wif a normal or an OC version GTS as the core clock 650Mhz + stock cooler??!!even an 580mhz can shoot to 80~85C when load...

dunno how high the temp will shoot when fully loaded...hope anyone owns it can bear the heat alone xD

its not nvidia..it shud be xfx ler...
stupid o not..u shud have a look on the retail product....maybe to put other third party cooler shud be nice...like thermalright vga cooler...but the down side is...sli setup shud proof to be difficult as the cooler alone damn big...

so far only few third party cooler that available for 8800 series...eventhough the item has been retailed long enough...even evga superclocked GTS with its custom cooler didnt do much of the job to cool the card...now u shud say whose stupid enough

for sure those silent vga wont help much when its bout the temp...last time used 7600GS silent pipe...idle at 50+C

better change to third party cooler....and most intriguing..the zalman VF1000...sure look like 7900GTX cooler big a** hsf but silent operation!!!

it shud be interesting to know which of those cooler will probably offer the best performance of all....either thermalright or zalman or thermaltake xD

for me..i must say that thermalright and zalman do had eye catcher hsf design.....juz my 2cent

ya for sure the pain in the a** using 88series are the temp alone...even though the performance does proof worthy...

@ace combat...where shud the intake exhaust will lead the hot air 2??do u mean that theres a hole/fan at down side casing???

sweet hsf there actually...do u mean that the HR03 can be rotated/placed at any side of the GC??that sure help a lot when SLi on the way...

uncle ianho...do snap a pic of ur sli setup ya!! really want to lay a sight of 2xHR03 in action!! xD

its not only for overlockerz alone that used this third party cooling...but those who anonnoyed thier card screaming like hell when its too hot;well sure smile with this type of cooling...plus u can use it as a silent solution O_O!!

i second that!!! we really need to lay a sight on the full setup!!!sure damn kewl!!!

i believe sticking with 8800GTS will not hurt much as the card still perfoming very well with latest games.well...at least it can last till 9 series coming anyone knows when 9 series will be launched??

what fabrication size this GT die were made off??the same ol' 80nm @ 65nm @ others???

but when looking at the card HSF, it seems the single slot cooling would benefit much when SLi'ed...a lot of space availaible even SLi'ing.

ya..even the synthetic benchie does show a good result...but i still doubt the gc would do good in lot of real game xperience..do not trust the synthetic benchie score 100% lol

juz selling off my GTS as of awaiting the incoming 9 series...never ever noticed bout the GT...and not planning to grab one though.targeting a new nvidia @ ati high end gc to upgrade.

no 9 series in near future??this maybe the result of no close competition from ATI recently.

true2...me too eager to see how much the mighty GTX SLi'ed could handle crysis at that resolution

but that only count if teh demo allowed the game played at that mega resolution la....
