http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...377&hl=9600+GSO this one would do? Damn! I thought of buying a 3870 but now maybe considering 9600 GSO. =D

like this~

i bought it at RM399
its worth~

even non moded
can oc to 700/2200/1750
very good performance adi

11K like tat~
i saw a review can raise to 750/1875/2500~
but mine ram stuck around 2300

mine is 6 chips only
the other 2 slots is empty
btw i saw jumper on the pcb
wts its for?

to run the galaxy 9600GSO oc edition what is the minimum power requirements? wanna upgrade my psu soon before getting this baby.. other specs of my pc are as my siggy below.

ok screw this shit, today i bought 6 pieces of GSO, and gonna try it tonight

if it works, tomorrow imma go LYP and sapu the rest of them and try them all

has anyone tried this gc on mobo with pcie 1.0a?

ehh ehh....softmod got give extra ommpph meh? I don't see it...softmod score and my score in earlier post about same only wor. So practically i don't think it's different. It's all dependable on the physical card how they construct it like our gso has only 6 pieces of ram chips, you softmod it can become 8 pieces of ram chips? lol...think wise.

And also I include some comment compare to 8800gt 512mb. Lets take zotac 8800gt amp 512 that i have here in my 2nd rig. I took it and put in my c2d rig. Score at 700/1750/1000, 3dmark06 = 12.5k

And then gigabyte 8800gs 384mb, Score at 700/1750/1000 same speed. 3dmark06 = 11.45k.

Ewww see the difference there. 1.05k score for almost double the price. Perfomance / price is too rediculus unless you damm rich hhaha. If you have RM800 I suggest you sli them both. I'm still looking on the net. None of the review or I can see anyone has benchmark SLI of 9600GSO or 8800GS yet. 

As for newbie will be wondering, if get the gso, you will need to o/c everytime manually when you restart your pc. Just use RIVAtuner and set it once and for all, on every reboot it will load the o/c settings upon starting windows. That's what I'm doing and actually very satisfy with this card as I just paid rm400+ a bit only.

Ohh...Now I got it. Galaxy really cun they give 8 ram chips. but they just disable the 2 ram chip?

so can anybody confirm this? The Galaxy 9600GSO OC edition works? Cos I have seen a few diff versions. One is the cooler cover the whole card like the 8800GT. Another is the normal zalman-like fan version (this is the non OC version, which apparently does not work).

The pic in the article pula give us a different cooler design...so I confuse which one can work which one doesn't.

david, your GSO also come with 8 memory chips? The cooler design like how one? Is it the big blue one cover the entire card?

Added on June 1, 2008, 2:36 pmHaha...perhaps you unlucky...ur card cannot flash cos it's buggy 8800GTS and bro ksk got 1 which was a working 8800 flashed to 9600GSO. Why? Cos new products launching soon...they cannot hold on to 8800 inventory too long, so flash them and sell them off as a newer 9xxx series...my guess la.

davidbilly87,
if it's the 6 chips version then there will be 2 empty spots there, without any solders there rite?

ksking, the bios you linked doesn't work for the 8 chip OC version, at least on the 6 pieces i tested :S

tried that first, didnt work, then i tried nvflash via dos, doesnt work either :S
can, just that its a lil troublesome, make sure you have a PCI gfx card as well, in case the backup bios dont work :S

oh ya
1 thg tat reminds me
i think my flashing consider working in backup mode
due to DS3 have electric protection issue
which everytime when i on the pc, it will on awhile n restart again
so mayb it consider backup bios mode

DS3 <-- what is this?

david urs how come arrive with CM hsf de? The one used by ksking is the big hsf right? What about u bryan? Ur cooler is what design?

does it has 8 mem chips david?

lol, that the exact same one as bro ksking la rite?

Haha I wish there was some way of telling why did david's card fail but ksking's worked...i'm getting my card in a few days...i hope it works! *fingers crossed*
