QUOTE(ir1z @ Feb 29 2008, 11:18 AM) is it true in SLi mode can only use one monitor? yes, it's true that only 1 monitor is supported when SLi is enabled. but you can always disable SLi from nVidia Control Panel when want to use dual monitor and enable it back when wanna game

i should be anticipating 3870X2 to drop price. just like what happened to 3870 when 9600GT is released.

QUOTE(ham_revilo @ Mar 17 2008, 12:05 PM) walao... thats like more expensive then the current gx2... did u heard wrong? and mind telling us what shop was it?? din pay attention to the shop name. but it's managed by bangla (not sure if they are bangla's, but im sure they are foreigners) at 2nd floor. didnt hear it wrongly coz the way he answered me is quite sarcastic (i assumed that he assumed that i could not afford it). "Three thousand three hundred". "Thank you", and i just walked off.

QUOTE(Lexitachi @ Mar 17 2008, 12:47 PM) Oh i think i know that shop. all blacks i call it. no offence. but i think they still selling the XFX 8800 ultra right? lol. yes, its a XFX 8800 Ultra. i wonder why he's selling at that price; either he got it when ultra is first launched or he wanna try his luck on those desperate customers looking for a 2nd ultra to run SLi. either way, 3.3k is alot to pay for a card which was (READ: WAS) fastest in the world.

they shouldnt have introduced at such a price at the first place, given that their competitor is wayyyyy cheaper (and prolly performs better) than their similar product.
dont think it's totally sane to get the gx2 now, unless you are a real hardcore nvidia fan.

QUOTE(ir1z @ Mar 22 2008, 12:12 AM) yaa lor cor current performance 3870x2 kicks the livin s**t out of the GX2. Not worth it when u have to upgrade ur psu to a crazy one as well in the process.... tell me about it...  already bought a 1kw psu for this. then realised that the gx2 is not that kick a-s-s. now undecided of what card to buy.

98900GX2 SLi can only benefit from Vista. Me not a vista fan here. see how 9800GTX performs then only decide. the launch date for 98GTX got delayed too rite?
unlike 9800GTX, 8800GTS din have double gold-finger thus cant tri sli.

QUOTE(tkh_1001 @ Mar 22 2008, 02:12 PM) but i think VT-ten might be one of the 30% guy as he already prepare with a 1k watt psu  WAS.... will be a more proper term. now both cards sold and dunno what card to buy next.

QUOTE(RegentCid @ Mar 28 2008, 08:41 PM) If not going for Tri SLI it....no worth upgrading it from 8800GTS G92 to 9800GTX another advantage of 9800gtx over 8800gts g92 is some power saving feature. might save "some" electricity there. can some analyst out there calculate how many years is the break even point?
