wow i sense the dark force will get stronger and stronger . 

#Zhen Wei
sell ur Zotac 8800GT and come join the dark force 

No worries mate, thats why everyone is here    beside, the Iceq 3870 might need another two or further in order for it to be available in market. Even the Iceq 3850 was still a question if you looking for it at lowyat..  is been about two weeks never been there, not sure whether it was available now. Or you can look around in the garage sales, some of them might know the estimated date for this baby to be born.

not sure they will launch Iceq turbo edition 3870 or not.

heheh .. will be joining the dark side with HIS Iceq 3870 on two days time ....

Wonder how well does the IceQ cooler ... but on the safe side ordered an AC Accelero S1 ...

Can't wait to be at the darker side .....

Got my HIS 3870 Iceq3 512 version already ...


Downside is not much of bundle, but the HIS multi purpose pen does provide some uniqueness...

can any1 update me on the price for 3870

Vearn also getting haha, too bad I changed my mobo choice or not our rig will be identical.

How's the temperature readings and fan sound of the IceQ version? Is IceQ Turbo out yet?

Although I'm not bothered about benchmarks, why did you use 3dmark05 instead of 06? CPU? Ain't bothered about that. Just need to know the 2 other scores for the graphics. See how much OC can be squeezed out of that card...oh btw, did you have to flash the BIOS as well? How is the sound of the fan at 100%?

@zhen^wei

Ok, cant wait to put my hands on those card.

@clayclws
he just get his hands on those card, give him sometime haha.
I bet he have to OC the processor too.

cheapest = E2140 and overclock.

ahh so i must buy a new psu.. any recommendations ? good and affortable ?

ur card will arrived today. delivery to you next monday.hehe
ya. he getting also. but not yet paid me
idle : 50-55C,
Load: 68-70C

i am using micro atx casing which my inside casing is quite hot 1..lol 

3dmark 05 (using my AMD x2 3600) already bottleneck i think 

how about 3Dmark06??

Btw.. this 3800 series too many driver probs.. 

From my experience...I guess so. I always use NVIDIA until this HD3870 came along. But all the while, my friends use ATI. I constantly have to help them fix drivers issues, revert to older ones, use optimized ones, etc. Even Tomshardware acknowledge that NVIDIA had turned driver tweaking into an art while ATI is just catching up. Hopefully they can fix these issues as soon as possible.

BTW: I could have gone for NVIDIA's 8800GT but I chose ATI because I don't want AMD to sink. I want competition. My buying power may be small, and I can only influence very few people to do the same...but heck, a small step for competition is better than none.

Added on January 19, 2008, 3:50 pmHey zhen^wei, how much can you OC with fan at 100%? Seems not bad at the moment.

@zhen^wei
I think your processor is bottlenecking your 3870.

This is mine w 3850
