8800GT Tweaktown review (13732 marks 8800Gt)

Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 3GHz (333MHz x 9)
Motherboard: ASUS Blitz Extreme
Memory: 2 X 1GB Corsair XMS3 DDR-3 1066MHz 7-7-7-21
Operating System: Windows XP Professional SP2,Windows Vista

well tweaktown used windows XP SP2 and the other review used windows VISTA , in 3dmark 2006 that matters a lot but even with XP i think it´s too much (13730 marks @ 8800Gt default) .

regards

Well they are using DDR-3 .... if that matter alot ? :confused:

Note: Tweaktown used the new Forceware 169.01 and Run in windows XP and Expreview used the 167.26 beta and run Windows Vista , i dont know how much the new driver boost´s in 3dmark 2006 and also runing with Windows XP score its always better (don´t know exactly the difference in points@marks) , so its perfectly normal tweaktown system have better 2k6 score than EXpreview (because of new driver and Windows XP) , Now if the difference should be ~1300 marks i dont know.....

so i would say that maybe they shoud score about 12800/12900 marks with that new 169.01 driver , Quad-core @ 3ghz , and Windows Vista

if the new forceware 169.01 also give +500 extra marks in windows XP and the difference from XP to Vista in 2k6 its around 900 marks then tweaktown score maybe its right ........

8800GT + Quad-core @ 3ghz & 167.26 driver (windows Vista) = ~12300 marks ( then if using 169.01 with +500 extra marks = ~12800marks)

12800 marks with windows Vista , if the difference from windows XP to Windows Vista its around 900 marks then >>> 12800 marks + 900 marks = 13700 marks (tweaktown score)

anyone know the difference in 2k6 from XP to Vista ??

Should be interesting to see what the egg does with GTS prices, I have been watching them pretty close to see if they start to firesale those.

I had hoped sometime today they might have the GT's up but I guess that was just wishful thinking.

I think OEM market take most of them , and according to some rumors for now nvidia only release 50000 cards , if that its true so maybe in some countries in the first week will be very difficult to get a 8800GT
