it really depend what resolution u are playing on.... since some of the OC card price is near to 1gb version (roughly rm100 diff only)... maybe still acceptable...

HI guys...can join the club ka...
just got me self a green frog from palit...

idle: 52c (fan 60%)
load: 62c (fan 80%)

how do you measure ur temp?

nice temp you got there.

i use riva tuner to set the fans and oc...temp also with riva tuner...

can anyone show pic ! tht already change to third party fan system!

Ooo... how do you check ur max load? what tools or game you play to check ur temp?

wooo...of coz using riva tuner hardware monitoring i set up everything there...
i play crysis put high setting on 1280x960 res same as to hellgate london...but never try on other software yet...
i use cpuid HM also to keep track on my temp...
what tools do u use..

Well =_=... i only use riva tuner, and afterplaying for 30 min crysis, Alt+tab and check temp history lo... haha

CPUID HM?? what's that... can show Temp when gaming?

why u need to alt+tab just put it under record and log file la...
easy what no need to stop playing potong stim only what..

cpuid hardware monitoring can show temp also but cannot record la need to alt+tab

Wokey...tonight i'll try the ati tool

can anyone tell me the difference between palit normal 8800gt and sonic

My Zotac AMP

Temp 50~51 idle (60% fan speed)
Temp 68~70c Load (100% fan speed)

ATI Tool i run it b4, max is around 70c too....

ur load only 62c ... wow...

he..he..he need help here never use atitool before can explain a bit how to use

install atitool... open atitool...press scan artifact.. leave it for 15mins+.... it will scan for artifact(corrupted pixels and at the same time will stress ur card)... ohya open the 3d box to have a look if u want..

what about its find max core can be use or not is it safe

Sonic is the OC version..
650 core
2000 momory
1625 shader

got 1 forummer selling 9600...3rdmark06 13k running on Core2Extreme..hope 88gt price go down so cheaper for me to SLI

is that the only diff between this two frogs...

ho..ho..ho.. hopefully they'll reduce the price soon coz i wan to sli also...

I think the price will still at 850~950 range for 88GT

96GT at RM660 from reuben is a nice grab too for a mid range

88GT > 96GT > 86GT

keke...if you dump 265mb on crysis, you gonna cry
because, i have tried...
Crysis on 1440X900 , High setting , DX9 , it takes up at least 300MB and 480MB video memory max....
using Riva-Tuner statistic graph

So, never try to buy 256MB version 8800GT, even dont play Crysis

yup rite now, it's not viable to buy cards with 256mb ram anymore.. because the texture used in games are damn big nowadays
