Haha, then gigabyte would be ok i guess. The blanket idea . . . not a good one

well i purchase mine for rm125 at moderno, lazy wanna go lyp read b4 people buyin for rm 110-120 but dunno where . Non-reference cooler card save a bit money, but if like the galaxy people say like hair blower . . . where can stand the noise, wanted to buy then change my mind cuz of that.

Erm . . . try asking around at the 8800gt oveclocking thread, they do discuss bout this.

For any questions on flashing bios, better ask 8800gt overclockers united . . . more sifu's there.

If its rev 2 for rm 110, dats a good deal for me . . . can go grab 1 also, haha.

256mb is just a so so for 19", if nvr play in high reso and AA, it will be ok, if not at least get the 9600gt . . . the rest r lower performer than this two.

Not really, to me it mid reso . . . get a 256mb 88, should be sufficient if no AA . . . need more perf, u could get another to sli since ur using sli mobo. Thats wat i think . . .

haha, welcome n grats on ur new 88, btw hows the temps for the gainward since its using non reference heatsink.

upgrade ka bro, 9800gtx, gx2.

nice temps . . . acceptable, how the noise? Haha, so many questions asked, sry.

hmmm, thats good . . . n artifact? Test with AtiTool. Gainward seems tempting.

well at the overclockers united theres another 8800gt thread, more sifus there. Their lepak thread.

Srry to say but dats very rare . . . only evga akimbo like bro mcfm has but u'll have to import it urself, distro does not bring that coooler in. U could try galaxy, but it doesnt flow the hot air directly out.

correct me anyone if im wrong, bt none of a sigle 8800gt can do v high. In sli u might wit low fps. Juat a guess though

To all 8800gt owners . . . i guess were kinda stunned by the new ati 4850 performance as we speak . . . its roughly 30-40% better compared to 88, even 50% in certain reso n games . . . if ur planning to sell ur 88 for an ati, by all means pls do . . . if u have a sli board, why dont try sli n compare . . . i did a small comparison according to this link http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3341&p=1 (how accurate it is im not sure, just a rough idea). Im just comparing to the 4870, 4850 in Crossfire, and 8800GT in Sli. 4850 single card beats the crap out of single 8800gt so i dont find a point comparing them.

Games that were tested : CRYSIS (No AA), CALL OF DUTY 4 (4xAA), ENEMY TERRITORY: QUAKE WARS (4xAA), ASSASIN'S CREED (No AA), OBLIVION (4xAA & 16xAF), THE WITCHER (2xAA, no AA at 2560) & BIOSHOCK (No AA). Ill be mixing the games that has AA and no AA.
Ill just calculate by total fps of all the games . . . easier for me.

1280x1024 (CRYSIS only)
8800GT Sli : 57.3 FPS
4850 CF : 43.5 FPS
4870 : 45.5 FPS

1680x1050
8800GT Sli : 592.0 FPS
4850 CF : 600.1 FPS
4870 : 528.9 FPS

1900x1200
8800GT Sli : 508.6 FPS
4850 CF : 554.5 FPS
4870 : 461.1 FPS

2560x1600 (excludes CRYSIS)
8800GT Sli : 311.6 FPS
4850 CF : 386.5 FPS
4870 : 286.6 FPS

Here's ROUGHLY the results, it might not be accurate, just a reference that should be taken lightly. If ur gonna sell ur 8800gt for a 4850 just do it, if ur selling for a 4870 forget it and just get another 8800gt n sli if ur able to, unless u plan on going CF. Well it all depends on ur current hardware, if its able to CROSSFIRE, then go ahead n CF. If i did anything wrong or given any wrong idea, pls do flame me.
