    9800gtx running like $%*$

    Wow thats concerning considering my 9800 GTX just arrived today. I upgraded from a 8800 GT as well. I'm sure something is wrong, I hope it's not your card. Which MB and PS do you have? I'm going to install mine tonight, I'll let you know if I have similar problems. I have not run Vista on...

    ordering today:9800gtx or 8800gtx?

    I was going to loose my setup, so I selected the 9800 GTX just for the fact that it was $200 cheaper than the 8800 GTX, maybe not as fast (close enough I won't notice) cooler running and less power... but overall it was the $200 difference!

    Does the beep eventually end or is it constant till you power off?

    What card to buy for low resolution gaming?

    When you pay little you get little. Get the best card you can afford you will thank yourself later...I mean how much is $30-$80 these days " A TANK OF FREAKIN GAS":eek:

    Physical size of the 9800GTX?

    The GX2 is 10.5" same as the 8800 GTX so the 9800 GTX is 1.5" shorter. This as I said is according to EVGA spec sheet for each card. Height is the same on all 3 cards.

    Corsair VX550W longevity?

    $50.00 for a Corsair, who cares how long it lasts. You will spend more money in a week on crap you don't really need which more than justifys the Corsair purchase. I have a Corsair 520HX paid $100 for.....its just as strong as the day I got it.

    Does anyone think that the 9800 GTX is inappropriately named?

    Since I posted in one of the other threads I might as well post it here as well: 8900GSX Hybrid.....

    Bypass the nvidia 9800 series for now?

    Well I choose not to Bypass....actually my Step-up was about to expire so I took the plunge. Going to an almost top of line card for $50 really not much to think about. Going from a 8800 GT 512mb to a 9800GTX I should see all my setting up higher than they are now... If I could just get off...
