Hi all,

I've been asking around shops in Lowyat about Leadtek 8800GTS 320MB & every shop says no stock. I made a call to Ban Leong & they told me that there is a shortage. Is this phenomenon only happening here or worldwide? Shouldn't this card be easily available since it has good performance for the price especially when you pair it in SLI mode & running at resolutions not exceeding 1280X1024? Ban Leong cant even confirm when will this card be available. Does anybody have news on this?

This card should run UT3 & Crysis pretty sweet in SLI @ 1280X1024 with medium to high settings.

8800GTS 320MB End Of Life already la....it was "replaced" by the new 8800GT.

the 8800GTS 640MB will be revised as well.

got many seller sell 8800gts 320, buy from them lo...

why get a 320 8800GTS when you can get a cheaper 8800GT? much better than the GTS 320...even the 640

If you're looking for a 8800 series cards, go for the 8800GT - very the value for money.

If you're looking for a cheap cheap 8800GTS card, go look in garage sales.....

8800gt better than 8800gts..so..go for the gt..drop gts..

320mb 8800gts been discontinued, nuff said

the new 8800GT 512Mb replace the previous version of 8800GTS 320Mb Graphic Cards already......

haiz..don't talk bout this...sad with my newly bought GTS 320mb..now wanna sell it also hard...having trouble..8800Gt really pawn 8800GTs 320mb..

actually this card should be able to get all max detail and higher resolution smoothly..

why so many ppl bother to sell thier gts320mb....
i still got a lot of faith in this card....its still can help me get max setting for most of the game..... if not just get second 1 from garage and do SLI still can last you 2-3 years unless u have alot cash to go for pcie2 later...

??? What's wrong with possesing 8800gts?
Yes, I'm owner of the card but still I can run games even at 1400X900 resolution with no lags.

No games made my Card difficult till this days, even crysis.

Hehe, i'm one them who gain benefit from this (pick up a cheap 8800GTS from garage sales )

But IMO, there's really not necessary to jump from 8800GTS to 8800GT. It's not like getting a HUGE improvement right? even though, yes 8800GT is better than 8800GTS.

hmm..yes, 8800gt is better than gts but the performance increase..should not be taken into consideration..just not really that impressive. although it has been sad and unfair to us gts user..however i don't think there is a need to change to gt..unless you are going to get a new card.

Sigh.. new buyers should go for 8800GT, but existing 8800GTS no reason to move at all. If ur 8800GTS user you probably wanna upgrade to Ultra level card rite...

I think nvidia will have another new revision for 8800GTX too... didn't someone posted earlier about 9800 series?

For me, GTS still can last for another year or 2.
No point wasting so much money to keep updated. Price will depreciate day per day. We know that. It's just a matter of time.

But just an opinion lor. Some people might love to go after best performance cards.

(Psst : I might grab another GTS to SLI it since people are selling cheap. I rather "rugi" RM700 more to get a 2nd GTS than "rugi" RM400+ to get a GT)

SLI GT . best value perfomance now .

with that amount of money can get a GTS640mb d..lol..top up a bit more can get GTX even..

REALLY SAW A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE SELLING THEIR 8800GTS.
8800GT, so atttractive..

SLI GT is rather quite perfoming if not mistaken, can pawned the GTS 640mb easily...

but 1 thing nice about SLI 8800GT, u need very little power only a puny 450W (true power, as someone prefer)...... no need to upgrade PSU for many....

Remember that the 8800 GTS/GTX were top-end cards a month ago before the release of the 8800GT. And is there a reason why it should not be high-end cards now???

The reason why people are selling their GTSs is because they don't want to loose more money. However, rumours are saying that the price of 8800GT might go up. In that case, the prices of 2nd-hand GTSs might go up a bit too. Market trends....

For current 8800 owners, I don't think there is any point in upgrading to Ultra, unless it becomes damn cheap or you have $$$. It is better to wait for next gen cards that support DX10.1 (and whatever new features) before upgrading.....

Hemm.. and i think this is quite a good timing to 'fish' for those cheap 8800GTS, as now there are more directx 10 games on the market and many will be released soon in end of the year, not like lastime where we can hardly find any directx10 games..

Thought there are many DX10 compatible games ,still non are fully utilizing the power of DX10,
The new G92, 8800gt is indeed a powerful mid end card, but the future lies for DX10.1 cards... hopefully nvidia will launch new series that fully support it.

i wonder what AMD will do about it this month, lol cant wait...

DX10.1 ? DX10 era just started so fast get DX10.1 ? hm..i think DX10.1 is just like DX9 upgrade to DX9.0a/b/c....

Yup, something like that. Just remember that current DX10 cards do not support DX10.1, although DX10.1 features might not be that important anyway.

ATI is supposed to release their 3800 series cards that support DX10.1/shader model 4.1..... next month, if I'm not mistaken. However, from the specs, doesn't look like it can compete with Nvidia's 8800 series cards....

so what is the price of this new 8800gt?
sigh..i'm not even have a dx10 enabled card yet
and now u all talking about dx10.1

for retail unit of 8800GT is around RM850-950,
depends on the brand,
for bulk buy, it is at RM800, the lowest I saw...

There is no point for GTS owner to dump their gc to garage sale, still can overclock and just wait for G100.

320mb is good s dead n replaced by 8800GT so either buy the gts in garage sales which u will rugi a lot or straight away get the 8800GT at shop around 900

I'm drooling for a new system with 8800GTS...Thank god I waited and that the 8800GT is out.Halleluyah.Saved.

yo guys , for the not so loaded now is THE time to get the 8800gts as rm725 also can get (saved 40%) and still near the top as performance goes...those guys that sold off the 8800gts must be diehard bruce willis or have uncle scrooge behind them...IMO

Any idea when will the new 8800GT hit our local shelves? I asked in Ipoh from one of the main PC shops today but the supplier said haven't bring in this product. So slow & lame...sigh. I already sold my 8800GTS to another buyer...well technically I cant say sold because I haven't even paid for it LOL & will order 2X of 8800GT.

i just bought my 8800gts last 2 weeks wit my new pc to replace my lost pc..now got cheaper n greater card ady..unlucky me..

or you try to buy from those ppl at here which have ready stock lo,
the price also around RM900,
then later if really have problem,
u can either post it to his place to claim,
or send to the shop u know,
at most they charge you handling fee only...

err what dya mean by lost pc?
being stolen ka??

Now 8800GTS will be relaunched in early December with 256bit bus, 128shader with 512MB/1GB GDDR3.

source pls, would luv to know more...

i have the same fate bro...paid for a high price and juz add few bucks can get 8800GT already..but nevermind..still can play most games with high resolution and settings..so juz hold up and keep on saving..maybe wait for next gen 9XXX series then..hahaha...believe that 8800GTS can survive another 1 or 2 years more..but hand itchy already..damm..

Buy or sell, still rugi nia...
it's better to keep the card for 1 or 2 years ler... by that time, it's not 8800GT legion already.

(I feel that this 8800GT gonna last for a second before nVidia launch a new card that pawn GT much worse than GT pawn GTS)

Anyway, I'm still on the lucky side because I have bought GTS 3-4 months ago. For those who just bought <1month... sorry to hear lol.

yup...just went home for raya holidays about 3 days..when came back to college all things gone ady..

sry 2 hear that bro next time u must b more careful with your house lock a lot of desperate ppl stealing 4 the sake of money these days

i'm staying in college...dunno guard tido or wut...nway...wut is the value IF i wanna sell my gc??only 2 weeks genap...

either u sell to ur friend lo,
might get higher price,
as u wana sell it at there,
I think around RM750 only,
coz a lot of ppl dumping 8800gts 320mb in garage sales right now...

The price dropped very drasticly lar....

You can sell it around RM700-RM800 only.

2 weeks VS 4 months

People will said, no different (Trust me, it's true)

well..no choice...i've to stay wit my current gc....the performance between gt n gts not big rite?

GTS still can be used for another year or 2.

Don't waste your money since you're at the losing part now.

Well, I guess there is no point for you to shift towards the GT unless you wanted to go with the trend. LOL..

My GTS itself are already out of the case and into the box..Now sticking with my 7300GT to see the real difference. The heat of those cards are sometimes bothering me..LOL..

i'll hold my horses before jumping to 8800gt too, i tested it at my neighbor's , the heat and noise really sux , big time

gonna wait for amd 's couterattack first, baru upgrade, lol

me oso from upm
aiyo u stay at wut college?
usually la
the thief is among our fren
coz they know we left our pc
thats why i dun want to stay college
i lost my 1 month zitron 7610
at rm 1.2k
haih

hm..better hold on..if the difference is like changing from 7300GT to 8600GT..then i think its worth it..rite?But if juz few score in benchmark..then..for what?If u play games you can also get the same quality if u compare both..or ur super super sensitive until can sense the difference..haha so juz safe up some bucks and wait for a bigger breakthrough..if for me(poor) cant afford to follow those guys who follow the trends owning the latest and most powerful stuff..and of course u need a heavy and always full pocket too..so juz think..are u on the group(follow the trend) side?Then u'll need to work hard to get some xtra bucks..

U r not selling ur 88GTS? I am not bothered with the heat

If you are playing in 1280x1024 resolution at max, actually you will not notice any differences between GTS and GT, seriously there is no point to upgrade as yoou gain nothing. The current GTS owners either can wait for 9XXX-series card or at least new generation of GTS which is going to launch in December

the new gen of gts maybe expensive......
they can throw the ultra to the bin maybe?huhu

I think the new GTS wont be expensive like previous GTS launch. Perhaps around ~USD350.

hoho..maybe the price is expensive...so start saving..

Anybody know who is the supplier for XFX ar? Are their products good? Comments?

Lol, shortage???? I think garage sales alot ppl sell off tis gc la...

Double Post...

sorry
