look what I got today :

[Gamer]

but had to pay for it :D

http://users.pandora.be/gamer/7800GTX/7800.1.jpg
Aopen 7800GTX (but reference, so who cares).

I'm expecting an FX-57 on friday, so got some time to get used to these baby's :)
It's been a while since I used Nvidia based cards, so be patient with an old man...

going for the hall of fame, got an old prometeia to cool the FX and 2 watercooling units (MCW50 and DD maze 4-1 (need to undo the pelt)) to cool the cards.

OPP, watch out :stick: :D

[QuikSilver]

Very nice! Too bad though, this time next year they will probably be worth half as much :(

[Gamer]

maybe less, although I sold my X800XT PE for € 360 when I bought it for € 480 7 months ago.
good deal if you ask me (still a good card).

[[XC] leviathan18]

yeah maybe next year will cost half but then next year you will have a three times faster card so you have to spend you money in that xD

[Topher]

you had to pay for it? why didn't you just pick them up off the ground and take them?

:)

have you gotten them set up yet?

[Vincentvega18]

Yeah, thats a kind of crazy place to take a photo of over $1000 worth of hardware.

[Gamer]

hehe, read my sig :)

look at my post in this thread

[sysfailur]

My other one will be here tomorrow *JOY*

[Gamer]

can't get that SLI to work :(

cards are installed, driver installed, bridge installed, paddle card in SLI function,....
what is wrong here ?

is it maybe because my PSU is only 20 pins ? (can't be).

check each cards bios.. then install the same one on both, you should
know how to do it

[Gamer]

bios on both cards are the same.
booted with only one card, and it's still on 8x with the paddle card on 16x mode.
maybe there's the problem ?

[Gamer]

card in slot 2 is making a lot of noise, fan is spinning harder then the one in slot 1.
prob stays when I switch the cards.

[HARDCORECLOCKER]

:D Will guarantee You the WR for ~2 month - then You have to switch to ATI crossfire with two X900XT PE.... ;)

:toast:

[Kanavit]

make sure that your motherboard is set for SLI mode. some motherboard manufacturers require adjusting to run in SLI mode. both 6-pin power connectors are connected to the geforce 7800 gtx? install latest bios, motherboard chipset drivers, and forcewares.

hehe, that's my next upgrade :)

found the problem, the paddle card wasn't properly installed (although I did it several times).
works fine now.
thx for the help.

[Gamer]

[Vincentvega18]

what voltage for that screen?

[Kanavit]

glad i stuck with a 3800+ newcastle, my best on air cooling was 2.6g @ 33 sec.

[Gamer]

lol, that's just a test Kananvit, my personal best on 3150mhz is 26" :)

[ugp]

I would love to have 2 7800s...and I wouldnt let them sit on the ground like that if I did....too much money right there lmao

[craig588]

Because you never know how much voltage a stone might be packing. Or maybe an extra viscious ant will come by and chew though the die.

[kromosto]

[eBoy0]

[kromosto]

[hitmanx2]

[Gamer]

Didnt know that burn in works for the Vcards :D . That's a dream setup.
So what you going to game with that rig. I could see some 8xaa ,16af , full mipmap -3 and best IQ. Quake4 should look nice with these settings

[lv_88]

nice house, mind selling it? :D
let's see some more results ;)

had some BF2 fun, man, didn't know this game could look this good.
previous card was a X800XP PE and the grafics on that game where not that good.

nope, not in a million years, worked to hard on it. :nono:

got a 3D01 score :
40799 or something like that :
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=8639238

keep in mind, this is on a half year old installation, didn't do a fresh install.
previous mobo was MSI K8N NEO2 and an ATi card, must say, nothing went so smooth before :)
though ATi and Nvidia drivers would :stick: but no way....

[kromosto]

hmmm i loved the graphics of bf2 on my x800pro and you say with this sli setup it is better than x800xt pe so i cant imagine it

[Gamer]

don't know why, but I didn't had good grafics, maybe I did something wrong there.

The game is built for Nvidia. So if you have nvidia cards (aka FX 5900 (I don't believe it either) or the 6600/6800 series of cards, or in this case the 7800 GTX) it's gonna look very sweet. BF2 looks very tight on my 6800 GT. :banana:

[Pomme]

I guess you've got the fastest gaming pc in belgium ? :D

[ZX7891]

I wouldnt doubt it.
