Gotcha Andy:D
holy... congrats on the highest nature score with a 6600gt. ;) beating 2nd highest nature by about 6fps, i think...
Yeah, that Nature is high.... I think I did one of 2FPS higher thought...
This is soooo cool.... you guys dueling it out with 6600gt's, hehehe....

Oh no, my mighty FX-55 has been snaffled up by what looks like something with half the cache .. that's the fun with these mid range cards, get a good one and altervista baby to a good cpu.Quote:

Now how do I respond ?
I have a sick motherboard
I have a sick GT 6600
I'm not feeling to good either to be honest.
I wonder if PCie 6600GT's overclock better than AGP because they do not have the bridge chip or Molex circuitry ? Has oneone reading this got more than 650Mhz with an AGP card ? Mine goes south at 635-640....

I think I might change my name to "MeesterFrostysnow" as there is obviously some link with the types of names and top scores.

man... single card benchin is so fun, its sucks that with the orb u cant really track the top places in 03 and 05 with single cards
i think we at XS should make our own little orb for single card benches like andy started, except with links and clock speeds etc.
i may be able to work on a thread like that for tomorrow :)
I think what is hitting my score a little is that I dunno how to enable fastwrite on Nvidia...:(.
And I cant use win2000 since I dont have it and wont buy it since it is additionnal costs for a few points that would make the game not as fun:D.
Try enabling it in BIOS and then using rivatuner ....Quote:

Reminds me of the time I bought an mp3 song for 77p and then it would not download due to some certificate being out of date. So I downloaded it for free. It's a hardlife on the Internet trying to be honest.

PCI-E cards don't have a fast write option that I have been able to find:)
Randi:D
I think Gainward jsut pretty much screwed up with the 6600GT, havent seen any Gainward over 650 yet, regardless of cooling.Quote:

Liquid Frostbyte - Chilly1's creation?Quote:

And Andy Mentionned about enabling FW for more performance...
Where from can we enable that function guys?
Cheers,

As an aside, how does altering the PCIe bus alter the scores, especially in 05 ? I believe they can go from 100 to 145MHz ????Quote:

I have located my old 70w Peltier cooler and so if the heatsink ever comes off this thing then that is obviously an option. Looking pretty dire to be honest.
Gocchin seems to be rma ing a card he blew to smitherines ( tut tut ;) :D ) Mr roadster seems to have disappeared so that leaves skate and Randi for the moment. Juliette and me are suffering from Gainward GLH ( Goes Like Ho Hum ).
I could try my MSI 6600GT but that means I'd have to break a promise, yet again, and forsake a games card for benching. Which means the MX4000 is the gaming card. And that ain't quick enough for multiplayer Solitaire .....

Andy
Charlie you gonna join?
:D That is really good, finally something to make me happy. Yeah, I'm gone for a while, have to write a review of the card for czhardware.com, so I'll play on the weekend. Unfortunately we do indeed suffer from the "Goes Like Ho Hum" syndrome so ramping clock speeds above 650 no matter what volts sounds like a mere prayer than reality. Seems like Gainward really got their cards right this time :stick:Quote:

Playful_Bufallo, tell me who your avatar is. I'm not going through skins.be this night, I really don't have the time... :D
anyone know the heat output/power cosumption of 6600GT's?
would i be able to cool and oc'ed one with a 80w TEC (on a maze4)?
Juliette, YGPM ;)
I'm pretty sure the Tec will handle it... But a 15XW would be better...
isnt 75W the limit for a pci-e card, with no connector straight from the psu to the graphics card?
so i guess that means its under 75W?
