check the mobo bro...and rams all high bandwidth.

remember we had the the discussed it. whether the pcie 2.0 card on a pcisig 2.0 complaint mobo the difference..
with u an empire going back and forth.

maybe less bttlneck ?? just a thought.

kekek dont think so think about it
the g80 has been around for sometime
when it was launched it slaughtered every game until dx10 games started showing up

so u can say all the early g80 users are fully satisfied and just waiting for the next big thing.
this card more like good on benchies.. but doubt it will outperform a gtx/ultra.. so gaming wise unless a card comes out to slaughter crysis.. . well its just another marketing gimmick ..

to test the market on recipient and flaws of the die shrinks etc.. my opinion.. till they sort out producing a faster card.
either that or just want to grab some dough for Christmas spending.

wish nvidia spend their time optimizing their SLI platform rather than this
they way ATI has leaped and bounds on the crossfire

oops

okay yeah its a sweat card
remembered somebody was running early samples at shader clocks of 2000 which is nuts

this time around i am with the ati camp kekeke... for some crossfire actions.. pure benchies only..

also this card on stock cooler looks nicer black..

rather than some msi versions which saw that was pure comic

sishh this card on oc beat my gts superduper overclocked like made

and take note my gts is as fast as any gts 320mb could ever get.

around 5700 on sm2 and 5500-5600 on sm3..

this card shatters it on OC.. damn put some HR03's on it and hope it doesnt have the same ovp problem that the gts had and ure talking heaven

lets see

he overclocked his core to 729 which would be 728 actually

ratio 1500/600 = 2.5 OMG

so the shader would be 1820 which would actually be around 1784 -1834 OMG!!!!!
and all this on stock cooler

no wonder it beat my card!! with those insane shader scores.

u dreaming ah??

q6600 445x9 = 3.56ghz
my xfx 8800gts OCED LIKE MAX even with vgpu mod i couldnt go further cause OVP limitation

score 14050 3dmark... and proc contributed most of the score

what u see up there in the source file only at 3ghz quad

this card is VERY GOOD!!

most ppl on their stock gtx cooler OC also wont reach that high..

again take note just talking about 3dmark06 benchies which does not guarantee real world performance before i kena bashing from ikan... kekeke

its backward compaitable with pciesig 1.1 only

hmm i wished he posted some high OC artifact free on thos cards

its the overclocking headroom off the cards that interest ppl

any gts can top those scores.

ish

this are basically the same gpu so practically it will show in game performance

benching differs a lot when different types of gpu's are in the mix

so in this case the sm2 and sm3 scores will show its strengths

so its imperative that he shows the overclocking headroom of this card

that would be impressive

y? cause usually gigabyte cards has some form of OVPs or some kind of bios hardware limitation to overclocking

tip: u dont hear somebody coming and boasting how much his gigabyte mobo's or gigabyte card can do kekek


never seen till today.

so whatever result we get from the overclocking of this card would be somewhere in the low to average overclocking ability of the 8800gt ..

thats y i asked..

so low dude can u like overclock ure proc to be running at 333x9

that would be easier to see ure gpu performance comparison
cause till then ... its freaking low

also again overclock ure card as much as u can
and bench
lets not talk about artifact free
just bench
on 3dmak06 and 05
lets see the scores

eh u can run ure cpu at stock voltage at 333x9

well unless it can surpass 20k in 3dmark05
and 13k for 3dmakr06 on c2d
on 3ghz
then this card is not worth it

also take note its ok to compare same gpu of the same type for performance since 8800gt is a evolution of the G80 .

so 3dmark06/3dmark05 would roughly reflect real world perormance on openg/shader games

its stupid to compare two different cards like HD2X00's and nvidia 8X00's on 3dmark05/06 as this will not reflect real world performance as each games are optimized for certain cards and driver enchancements also do play a role. Gone are the days where u can keep one driver and keep gaming on new games.. nowadays new games mean new drivers.

Well after november will be getting either a XFX 8800gt/gts to sli or a HD38x0's to crossfire.. my bet will be the second choice on the Maximus..

impressive..
but hmm i can tell u this
after going true 5 slies setups in the last few years

its not worth a dime

ther performance increase is so minimal yet the headaches that comes with it so frustating. Hence ATI is the only one that has open their mouths and are commited to give 1.8x performance increase

SLI i have decided is a failure.

*
6600 ultra sli
7900gto sli
7900gtx+7900gt Extreme SLI (flashed bios)
8800gtx slied
8800 ultra sli

verdict.. pure waste of my time for gaming...

hopefully crossfire will do better.
ok and looking at the single card score

i can do 14000 at 3.56

if that card can hit atleast 14.5 to 15k on artifact free

I guarantee those who are in for the next batch of shader games are going to truly enjoy this card gaming at 22/24 inch.

sishh rivatuner can overclock any card.
even if it didnt support it..

sishhh

that is so fake

ok listen ppl

sishh again a lot of ppl here jumping the gun
and assuming a lot of things

for true overclockers+gamer who wants to pay cheap but max his performance

wait and see position on this card

ok y??

if it has a OVP problem like the 8800gts.. dont expect too much and then we have to do card selection proccess for overclocking
even if vmod with OVP the difference is minimal depending on ure card. So u cant generalize

Second this card should be able to do more than 1700-1800 shader
gaming depends
if ure playing a opengl game ure mem overclock would improve the fps hence ure SM2 scores
if ure playing a shader intesensive game ure shader based games ( ie most DX10 ) fps would improve hence sm3.0

for core speed depends on low powered 3d/2d performance.

thats y wait and see position
cause knowing nvidia they nowadays implement the OVP's on most of their mid/low end cards and hence this card might be affected.

i just played 1920x1200
at everything high dunno just did the optimal setting and got like high.
average frame rates is about 40-50
oh yeah guys use the new driver..

hmm game AI kindda stupid.. even at hard...

just crouch nearby
clock and run to everyone of them .. use ure sight ...do a few headshots. and they all are dead...

was expecting the game a bit tougher.. maybe like stalker...
hopefully the ai will get smarter..
the gunship and the jeep gunner damn stupid...

easiest way remember the first part to jam the radar.. create commotion till the jeep comes
kill everybody
take the jeep
and go on a killing spree with the gunner and driving the jeep.

hmm overall gameplay is pretty good.. hopefully with the full version its going to be awesome..

ok tip for those who cant use aa but want to get good details

set ure nvidia panel on max quality
set ure LOD's to -3

this itself is damn good..
