But dx10.1 coming out next year... they say the graphics will be way nicer than dx10..

thx for da suggestion.. so u meant galaxy?

hmm..


u mean get urs or get like urs.. hehe

hehe nvr mind.. next year is another story.. it's hard to look so far in the future in this fast developing world..

Asus TOP dude

definitely good

Asus dont do overclocking much on their cards
but they were king on the 8600gts...

this cards are 700/1750/2000 also...

Way nicer meh? I tot they say DX10.1 will just be an extension to DX10? Minor improvements over existing architecture + a few new features

hmm too bad i went out before i saw ur post.. i just grabbed 8800gt galaxy.. dunno how far it will go.. thinking of testing it with my x38 dq6.. but waiting for someone to lend me his ram haha

Im getting the Asus... xD... Btw dx10 cards doesnt support dx10.1 features... Only cards like the upcoming ati 3800 can support dx10.1 features...

heck screw dx10.1...
its just going to load the cards more
i will wait till DX10.1c or something like that until they perfected everything

still waiting for nvidia's promise that their DX10 cards performance will rival that of DX9

hmm galaxy

last time my 8800gtx galaxy clocked better than my asus..

oO... Galaxy better than asus?... =.=

AHahahahah GALAXY.....makes me remember of Milky Star.

I've been playing with my XFX for a few days now..
still trying to get good clocks..

anyway, i have a few questions though...
i've tried overclocking to 700/2000 on stock fan running at 100% with open case and load temp at 63C (i left my air cond on full blast with full blast fan...hehe) and started artifacting at 1 hour.

Question is, does artifacting mean i've screwed my card? (I'm worried about screwing my card as it's new). I bumped it down to stock and ran atitool and it was artifact free for 6 hours.

how do i know my card is screwed?

another question is, where in heck can i get the HR-03 GT? is it even out yet?

m using asus..but dun have time to test it out.

i just put the 8800gt with my x38 dq6 for the first time.. i cant really test this card coz i think the board is quite sucky.. i cant oc at all.. BSOD everywhere..

well honestly i think it all depends on luck.. coz all using reference board with i'm suppose non hand pick core..

but the difference might be in the bios itself, some using higher clock with higher voltage, or some might opt to use tighter timing to give better results..

dats why last time my forsa 8800gtx can oc very high like other top brand card with extra rm150 price

hmm dunno just that there was once that my galaxy 8800gtx could clock higher than my asus 8800gtx...

maybe just one off incident.

only thing i can say about galaxy.. packaging

That's bull.. 169.04 has broken ATiTool but RivaTuner still works

Added on November 7, 2007, 2:41 pmThe G8x/G9x core is very resilient.. it goes up to 115c (you can check with Nibitor) so it shouldn't be dying at 63c. Artifacting doesn't mean the card is gone. If it's gone, it won't boot. Or all the colors will be wrong. Even so it may just be a case of BIOS corruption, so reflashing the BIOS might save it.

i'm using leadtek 88gt same as yours also...

The new Zotac OCed edition dam nice...

u tried Asus 88GT d? i just bought it today.. now installing driver for it.. 169.04 beta

I'm getting ASUS also ... share with me ur results ya?... u using stock cooler?...

stock cooler.. idle 56c @ 70% fan speed
load at 80c +/-
stock clock also..
having prob with my pc.. dunno why pc sudden freeze.. then cant boot d.. the only way is unclock all my cpu/ram.. lolz.. gila mobo
