** The Official 8800GT 512/256mb Review/Overclocking Thread **

[Dru]

Well I think I'll be ordering one shortly (bank balance allowing of course). My 320mb 8800gts is super but it just doesn't cut it on my widescreen. Shame the price is up on what I was expecting though.

Right, cool. So this card will work in my PCI-E 1.0 motherboard and ATX v2.01 PSU.

Now I just hope 530w is enough :S

Anyone overclocked theirs yet if anyone actually has one?

Asgard you got a Zalman VF900 handy to see if that fits.

Im guessing it does if a Maze4 fits.

 

[Metalface Mark]

Any idea how to overclock the shaders?

I would imagine it does but I dont have one to try.

Got a bit of a situation. After installing the card my Vista installation wouldn't boot. After futher investigation its showing a parition size of Zero bytes, ummm.

I'm hoping this is just a coincedance but all the same.

having to reinstall XP and then had vista, lol.

For all P5K Delux owners !!!

Then end of the card sits right ontop of Sata 1. Unless you have a short angled connector you will loose the connector.

 

[LoadsaMoney]

looking forward to reading about your card Asgard, absolute crackers these, ideal at my res of 1280x1024, GTX performance for £150+ can't be beat.

Isn't it same length as a 8800GTS though ?

Latest version of Rivatuner works but in XP you have to enable it, search it

It's a good thing asus bundle angled cables with the board then.

The ones I have are too high

 

[ihatelag]

So what's better the BFG OC2 or the EVGA SuperClocked? Do you think the EVGA is more worth it with their 90 days return thing?

 

[ergonomics]

well i found some info on the performance on this card in a x8 slot, which is very useful for people like me when theyre in sli! good news, the difference is almost negligable, but i wouldnt exactly class the source as 100% legit....

but still, im glad it doesnt bottleneck it at all.
