dont agree much.. passive cooler on 88GT? better be in the safe side, make it an active cooling one..

why is that bro? what's wrong with the turbo module?

hi all new 8800gt user..
upgraded recently after i sold my old elsa 8800gts 640mb..
btw mine is gigabyte 8800gt which uses the zalman vf830 hsf..

btw here's my 3dmark06 with my 3.25ghz e6300 and my 8800gt @ 756/1782/1944

what about the temp bro?

Not really. Doom used the S1 on the HD3870 and it recorded quite a difference even when compared to the IceQ3 cooler though. So, this S1 cooler must be one hell of a good cooler. Just need to know how good is it on the GT though..LOL..

Anyone know the pci-e version Biostar Tforce 550? I read in a few places 8800GT compatible with the newer pci-e 1.1 and NOT the 1.0. I can't get back to my mobo until next week and have been unable to find it on the Net either.

B4 ur 8800GTS 640mb how much marks in 3dmark?

I have just bought Colorful 8800GT 512mb w Zalman HSF.

Room Temperature:
Idle: 49-51C
Load: 60-62C

Welcome to the club then

Woow... nice temp you have there, naked or with casing?

my idle is quite high but load quite low
idle lowest at 57 load at 60
fan speed at 60%
going to get thermal take cooler from aoinatsume
hope can lower some more

I reckon that was the Zalman VF700 if not mistaken.

Zalman coolers really are still very usable eventhough that model was quite old. The temp sure doesn't disappoint both idle and load.

ATI 3870x2 are trying hard to cripple the 88GT,ATI teruk make 2 gpu into 1 card.They are desperate to get into the high end market. Crossfire got compatibility issu somemore how to play game

this is my benchies, how is it?.... temp is 63-65'c at load...

It's with casing. In a room without air-con.

The version of Zalman HSF is VF 1050. Heard of it?

ooo the big new zalman fan???? The shop i bought my 8800GT from told me about new product of it... LOL... ask me to grab it .. LOL... abit gila la them.... wat casing u using anyway?? with how many fan in and exhaust?

Ya the big one which covers 3/4 of the card and also a small heatsink at the end near the 6-pin connector.
I heard they said this is a limited edition and not all shops have it. So i decided to go for this brand rather than others. Where Colorful originated from? Must be a lousy brand i guess since i didnt actually hear it from anywhere.
Any review on this GC? Pls let me know...

I'm using Lian-Li PC-7 with 2 fans at the front, 1 at the side panel for intake, 1 at the rear and 1 at the top for exhaust.

Check out the copper one. Mine is similar with that just that mine is red in colour and curve-shaped heat sink. Also, with 4 heatpipes.
