Sweet graphics card

Albee · Post by **Albee** » 2006-10-15, 20:54

I'm changing soon. It will probably be:
Pentium D 930 3Ghz
Abit GD8 Pro
2x 1Gb Kingston DDR2 RAM
Leadtek GeForce 7600 GT
what do you think about it???
Plz post your opinions

Buy less RAM (1GB is enough) but better graphics card. I suggest 7900 GTX (or cheaper 7900 GT but nearly as good as GTX) for big performance.

RAM ... I don't know KannXia (if he buys Vista lol) but indeed, good graphics card is amazing

Buy a lower model, and clock it to the performance of the Pro version LoL

Pentium D

Amazing

I'm building it to play games like Crysis and TDU

MY NEW GRAPHICS. Overclocked by Gainward - 580mhz core, 1500mhz memory (512mb 1.2ns). It's damn fast I must say

Now I'm gathering cash for something from 88xx series.

my computer crashed = hardware ...

My P4P800-E Deluxe motherboard = burned

I did nothing wrong

Not OC, no jumpers changed etc

I have to tell that I have 8usb ports & at the moment of crash there were 3 usb hard drives on my comp ... if that has something to do with it I have no idea$

Now my GFX card also = dead because the Fan of it = makes muuuuuuuuch noise ... Will have to buy new cooling kit for it prolly ...

I take no risk, just removed it out of comp

You guys perhaps know what went wrong with my MoBo

(motherboard)

(oh and since I did 2 months ago windowsupdates I receive messages from windows that my voltage on my usb ports is too high ...

Perhaps believe it, perhaps not say other people on the internet ) But I don't now a thing with it
I can tell that my Southbridge burned up (ICH5R ic on my mobo) ... I have pics of it, if you want to see ...

In the mean while I searched my whole city and luckily found the last P4P800E-Deluxe mobo ...

Maybe You should try different motherboard. My Gigabyte K8NF-9 was rather cheap but it has rock-solid stability. Before this mobo I had MSI with intergrated GF 4 MX

PS. Damn, my new graphics it's really sweet

Hmm, I see ...

Dude

How much did you pay for that card

It rockz indeed, standard gfx = ok
Overclocked = best

KannXia · Post by **KannXia** » 2006-12-30, 13:40

Well, I payed about 300$.

PS. My cat likes to sleep on the box of this card

georgy · Post by **georgy** » 2007-01-12, 18:38

damn, sweet/crazy price

I payed €220 for my card

(2years ago)

Hi again!

Mu Su**** pc is going wrong!
I need find a good linux SO... with ui

THis pc is CRAZY! i have a lot of data... but the graphic card is like a 70s arcade machine...
the CPU and ram... are the Computer of the Dead!

the only good thing is the soundchip... and is crappy...

but if some1 want change of crappy OS try UE (windowsUe.com)

But if some1 knows where io can download a SPANISH version of a Gui linux... thanks a lot...

My graphics has really rock-solid stability and the fan is very silent.

Something funny: HL2 runs SLOWER (about 20fps slower) than on my old GF 6600 256mb. Strange isn't it?

But luckily I don't like HL2, I ran it for test only. But the true power of this card I saw when I was playing F.E.A.R. - IT RUNS FROM 60fps to 200fps with everything maxxed, 1280x960 and AAx4

Looks really sick and smooth.

georgy · Post by **georgy** » 2007-01-13, 20:56

F.E.A.R. is good game to test it

because of heavy GFX
perhaps try new Far Cry also lol, even more heavier than 1st Far Cry

does it support Direct X 10

Than you should try M$ flight sim 10 deluxe lolz

direct X9 result

Well the 'second FarCry' - Crysis will be lagging for sure. But the first one runs always over 40fps

This card doesn't have DirectX 10 support. But for 88xx card I will have to change motherboard, powersupply, etc. The next step in upgrading my PC is to buy 2GB Kingston HyperX and SoundBlaster X-Fi. After that, I'm gonna buy whole new PC with Socket AM2 and SLI.

PS. Flight Simulator looks incredible on DirectX 10!
