MSI debut a 8800GT 1GB using GTS stock cooler?

What's with the rusty looking support/vent plate...

Haha that's what I thought!

Heres another picture where you can't see the backplate! :cool:

Wonder what the pricing on these cards is gonna be? I'm not sure if 1GB is such a selling point but the new 8800GTS cooler is a nice touch.

Note sure what its clockspeeds are either but I expect there the same as the regular 512MB 8800GT's (possibly could have a mild overclock, nice cooler so why not).

I cant see people wanting to invest in a rusty GPU.

Perhaps it's the Bioshock special edition

I suppose this will only really be better at high res?

AgedIdiot · 24 Dec 2007 at 14:52

Anyone seen any reviews?

Gackt · 24 Dec 2007 at 15:09

I'd get it just for that CGI girl.

anyone else think that 1GB vRam on a 256bit bus is a little silly?

*sigh*

photoshop?

Skeeter · 24 Dec 2007 at 19:47

Hmm... Its a GT box, but nothing on the card says GT. Little kiddy photoshop of a GTS infront of a GT box and some rumor threads anyone? And if the 1GB models cost £230+ just get a GTS?!?!?

I would get that just coz of the red PCB, well better than Green

Well yea I would not have a red lambo with NV on would I?

Okay, my theory goes as such:

MSI got a crapload of 1GB 8800 GT boards in, had a load of 8800 GTS cards RMA'd and hence had a lot of stock coolers left...

See where I'm going with this?
