I don't seem to have an option for extended view, all i have is spanning. I'm running a GTX 285 with 2x2407WFP Dell monitors. I want my primary monitor to be 1920x1200 and then have my 2nd monitor be a "blank canvas" so I can drag windows over. Right now its spanning everything across acting...

Just wanted to chime in. I definitely find 12gb of ram useful. I do alot of encoding, gaming, and run multi monitors. Nothings better than being able to play WOW in a 1900x1200 windowed screen on my main monitor while encoding videos on my 2nd monitor with CS4 open while watching a DVD and...

I'd say its far from dead, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PhysX#Title_support.

Ahh nice link that Mack, definitely shows that in a PhysX intensive game that something else (as long as its a 8600/9600+) card makes a definite improvement. I'll be running this guy as a dedicated physx card then. Thanks :)

I'm running an Asus P5W-DH Deluxe MB with a Core 2 Duo E6600 setup with an EVGA 8800 GTX currently. I run on a 24" monitor and everything has normally been fine, but lately anything new has started to bring ole bessie to her knees, sub 20fps in most games at 1920x1200 even at 2xAA. So I'm...

Glad to hear that a new card fixed your problem. I had a 8800 GTX that was having the nv4_disp crashing as well, and wouldn't overclock 1mhz past the stock level without artifacting. Also had the lagging post text when I turned the system on, shipped it out last week and my replacement should be...

Almost all hotlinked from DD.com, need to change those quickly! This is sure to get tons of views and don't wanna get in trouble for that. :)

Just to compare, I have a new EVGA 8800 GTX with a Conroe E6600, I score 17,600pts in 3dmark05, more than twice as fast as the guy with the single opteron, so you can use that for an upgrade path. http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=2330185 So yes, a new cpu will make a huge...

Will post up my 8800GTX scores once SpecViewperf finishes downloading. :)

Nobody is outraged because they caught and fixed the problem before any "retail" cards were shipped out to distributors.

Not bad scores. I'd recommend some gentle overclocking at least. I have a single EVGA 8800 GTX thats pushing 17,600 in a single card setup with a 6600 @ 3.0ghz as well. http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=2330185 Good luck on 20k+ scores once you massage 'em a bit :)

97.02's are super super buggy, they released them in a hurry to have something for the 8800s, wait a few days and I bet a new driver will come out that will be amazing.

EVGA 8800GTX here, I've managed to go from 576/1900 stock up to 640/1950 without artifacting, memory on this card I got seems super sensitive. I can drop it back to 1900 and run the core at 650 without any problems.

3DMARK06 SCORE = 10890 GPU TYPE@SPEED = 8800GTX STOCK CPU @ SPEED = E6600 @ 3.0GHz MEM @ SPEED = Corsair PC2-6400 5-5-5-18 DDR2 800MHZ WATER COOL Y/N = No OPERATING SYS = XP SP2 DRIVER Version = 97.02 BRAND Name = EVGA
