Hi Guys.. just to share my experience here..
I used to have a Asus 8800GT Top. I is a nice card however i found a few things that i dont like. Just personal opinion... sharing ma...
- Noisy fan (more noisy than my EVGA 8800GTS and my Zotac 8800GT amp)
- Very hot. (in this case very scare to OC unless change other cooler)

Performance wise is quite good.. I think the top series can still push further with better cooler..

by the way once silly question here..

I am using a Zotec 8800GT amp. Not OC at the moment.
I am using a AMd 5200+ 2.6G, no OC also...
2G kingston value ram 667MHz.

I manage to hit 3Dmark06 (default test) max 10184 score... is it normal?

Another question is does it make sence to flash the bios for my Zotec to others like the XFX 8800GT XXX version?

Regards

You can flash ur card bios to other versions... Don't worry about the temperature... It can stand temps up to 120C before dying.... And that score for ur computer specs is quite normal...

actually what is the main reason people change the bios for the card?
stability? performance? OCability?
does it affect the warranty?
