my guess is around the rm500 mark. coz it's considered slower than 9600gt, if priced around 9600gt price then i think 9600gso no need to sell d. laugh.gif

lolz it's nvidia's typical marketing gimmick. rebadge old and not-so-popular products as new models. even 9800gtx is said to be rebadged.

rm399 could be possible..but probably for not so well-known brands like manli etc..more established brands normally more expensive

cheapest i've seen so far is rm390. what's the minimum power requirements to run 9600gso/8800gs? if 380w can use ar? coz last time i tested 9600gt with 380w psu, no funny probs. might get a 96gso or 88gs as my next upgrade. hehe.

@OC4/3,
rm360 izit the vanilla GSO version and rm399 the OC version? if like that it's considered very cheap d lo. But last time i went there they said galaxy 1-year warranty only. that's why cheaper than other brands.

@bulibulizaimon,
i think it depends on your preference coz both are identical in specs. some brands dun offer 9600GSO but only 8800GS. so again it's your call. i personally wouldn't mind 9600GSO or 8800GS, for me warranty period is the most important. biggrin.gif

i saw the gigabyte card when i went to lowyat about 2 weeks ago. the box and card design exactly the same with their 8800GS. if put them side by side i think kenot differentiate which is 9600GSO or 8800GS. I have to see the box only know which is which laugh.gif
