They are the exact same except the black ones have leds on the bottom that are blue and leds at the top that show the activity of each module.

Try a 1:1 ratio with cpu and ram.

Well at the top of the page it only tells me how to find the week which is L637 so week 37 but is doesn't tell me how to find the stepping. Also I don't see any E6600 with my week the closest was week 36.

I just got my new E6600 from newegg and its FPO Batch#: L637F036 . If I understand that correctly its stepping F o.O. So is this a new stepping and is it good or bad :confused: :eek: .

Quoted from xbit labs article. In any case while I hope that the top of the line products beat their nvidia counterparts and refreshed counterparts I hope that ati's midrange cards best nvidia's far more. Most people can't afford the high priced stuff so the mid range has to dominate...

bump.

Does anyone know if nvidia is still working on g80 drivers for xp or are they focusing all efforts on vista. I for one am not touching vista with a ten foot pole until DDR3 becomes available 4 gig kits, an intel quad core that does not lose performance in 64 bit mode or an amd quad core that...

Are you using the latest bios?

A 7900 gs would be you best bet then but the difference between a 8800 gtx and a 7900 gs is rediculous. Edit: it may be worth it to wait a little bit longer till the 8600' come out and see their performance before you buy. Either that or buy and evga card and use thier upgrade program.

Sad thing is its not even the best card the 8800gtx is and that cost $500+. But seeing as you apparently don't want to spend that much you need to give us a price range and change the topic title because all things considered the best pcie graphics card is the 8800gtx.

What did the rev 2.0 and 3.3 fix over the first rev boards?

Maybe so but this is xfx which has a double lifetime warranty meaning you can transfer the lifetime warranty to 1 other person.

Yes it is artifacting and yes the temps are high for a 7900 gt.

I would put the 8800gts ahead of the 7950gx2 just because its a sinlge gpu card so it does not have to worry about sli drivers for all games to get its max performance and with overclocking it can start to rival the 8800gtx.

Its times like this I wish I could go to the dell plant in the area and get a monitor if the have them there. I know they build computers there don't know if they have monitors there too. I wouldn't get the nec because its $599 and I might as well go for a 24" monitor for only $100 more.
