we r same ship dude  brows.gif ......... last week my shop got 2 MSI 8800GT OC version, 1 i put on VISTA, 1 on XP.... n try a play CRYSIS in 30 min with very high res in air-cond room. ma de damm hot with without any 3rd party cooler fan  sweat.gif  sweat.gif  sweat.gif wonder i can boil up 2 egg liao lor that times  thumbup.gif
*
w00t laugh.gif no need 2 boil egg la laugh.gif even cook mee maggi 4 breakfast lunch dinner supper 4x each also can liao laugh.gif

btw i wanna ask is it normal that the card will make a lot of noise when playing any games like crysis for 1 hour? i find it so noisy and unbearable 4 my ears. doh.gif might be probably got so used 2 the silent mode in the previous GC that i feel uncomfortable gaming with this new baby. sweat.gif another weird problem i face some funny colours like blue colour display will become red colour display and red become blue, etc. did anyone encounter this or is it my LCD got minor glitch? ohmy.gif

try throttling ur fan manually. do u set ur fan to be auto speed?
i just let my 3850 fan to be fixed at 60% ... not much noise was heard and the temp at idle is 48'c while at load is 77'c (i use rivatuner 2.06)
*
i use manual mode at 50%. no noise when i am not gaming. the fan only goes crazy when i game very long and i need 2 reset after exit. laugh.gif doh.gif btw what is AUTO FAN CONTROL for?

that is good new that mean ur fan is working well  brows.gif .... my fan also if play crysis in high res sure will bising 1 cos the temp becomes hoter n the fan will becomes faster to protact my HD 3870.
ERM..... about ur color, maybe u can try ajust in ur graphic card setting there. i think i call what "gamma"  hmm.gif
*
haha really laugh.gif well i guess i need some time 2 get use 2 the fan noise then sweat.gif

ok i will try the gamma n see how lo icon_rolleyes.gif

EDIT : no difference at all doh.gif

btw did you test the CoH opposing fronts game bundle? how is the gameplay like? i dont dare 2 test it because i am not an avid RTS freak. hahaha!

Anyone know if this product already arrived at LYP? Will there be another Turbo IceQ Edition for the HD3870? I'm still eager to pick between the Nvidia 8800GTS and this ATI HD3870... sweat.gif
