i'm planning to change to green camp and I'm planning to buy GTX260. So which one is better. Palit (OCed version) or Gainward Golden sample. Any other suggestion?

BTW, my budget is RM900. Thanks

Planning to change to Green Camp. Currently using HD4870 512MB and planning to replace it with Palit GTX260 216 Sonic (OCed). So do you guys think it's worth it or not. Or should I just wait for GTX 275 or Gainward GTX285 custom cooled (with 4 heat pipes) 1GB version. I prefer the latter but I don't have any idea about the price and its availability in our country and hence stopped thinking about it for a while.

So Sifus.. really need your help here.

Haha, you totally underestimated the GTX 260 Sonic. The performance is completely difference compare to the reference GTX 260. FYI the GTX260 Sonic's performance is almost identical to the stock GTX 280 and I'm sure you know this cause you own one right.

That's why I asked should I wait for the Gainward GTX285/275 or should I stick to my previous Idea which is buying either GTX260 sonic or HD4890.

and yes, I'm using a 24" LCD. Thanks for the info~

But this is not like a previous stupid Gainward card. here's the link

Btw, thanks for the suggestion.

What's the difference between the normal Arctic Cooling Accelero and the extreme version. Can it be used for both Nvidia and Ati cards?

Haha, ok then, So what's the difference between the normal version and the extreme version?

For time being GTX275 is the best bang for buck. But if you're not rushing on anything just wait until the driver for 4890 is released then there will be new reviews about the card. Just my 2 cents~

The Gun and the right hand side of the picture. That's the only difference I can spot.

My friend set the fan to 85% for 5 straight hour once. Everything works just fine. Just give it a try for one hour 1st.
