got a pretty strange card.
seems a fully upgraded version of 8800gts.
still, G92 core, 512m, 1.0ns_ram.
rated at 600/1500/900.
but...better pwm design.(or it's Asus's own design, who knows :D )

tests and bios here:
http://www.unihw.com/html/18/n-118.html
will post some overclking results after i find a good cooler :D
is the official name 9800GTS?
that looks identical to teh gts512 im not sure what the point is, it even looks the same except for the blue pcb
Nice VGA, there's any bench mark ?????
I like the blue PCB, but its not my favorite. :p
Is it too much to ask for a close-up of the core? :D

why does this seem so disappointing....... A single 8800gtx(stock) with a 3.0ghz kentsfield can beat that 06 score (never benched the others). I also know for a fact that a 8800gtx(still stock) would smoke that score if used in the 4.5 ghz yorkfield(change that to wolfdale or w/e the server version is called, sorry:() system.....
:down:
EDIT: I just saw the cpu score..... 4239.... my quad gets 4530 at 3.46 (13x266)
more :down:
EDIT AGAIN: Mine is in Vista too......
even more :down:
well if these cards yield that little of performance gain, i'm glad i bought the last gen stuff...
i'm begining to think these are just fillers so nvidia doesnt fall back a generation. seems like ati will win this round for performance if their releases hold true.
but we'll see...
:cool: driver's not ready yet.Quote:

so i'm regard it as a low-volt version 8800gts :D
dual core CPUs score a much worse CPU point score than quadsQuote:

at least, driver and bios say so :DQuote:

pure disappointment...:mad:
edit: nah, only high-end (gtx+ ultra cards)
probably GTX ONLY tripple SLI capableQuote:

I get better scores if I oc it, I just waiting for my new case and to wc my board too. I also have a bunch of stuff running in the background(antivirus, utorrent, coldfusion server) I still don't see me getting much higher than 5k on the cpu with fsb oc'd. I still feel that the 9800gts 06 score is :down:. Ive seen 9800gtx scores in other thread with quads clocked that high and they aren't much better.Quote:

88gtx/88ultra/88gts/98gts/98gtx should be same performance at the same clk.Quote:

8800 GTX/Ultra --> 9800GX2
This is "magical 9" nvidias month ...
Graphics 9 series, chipset 9 series ... lifts at 18.3.2008!
overclking test coming out:
http://www.unihw.com/viewnews-118-page-2.html
cooling by Zalman VF-900 ,
ambient=17c
no additional cooling
at vGPU=1.1v and such bad cooling, i think it's an nice overclking
GPU=713mhz, Ram=1065mhz, shader=1782mhz
with shader>1845, i can't clk ram>1000mhz, same situation happened on 88gt/gts
8800gts 512 do 800mhz+ on factory cooler :| (mine can at least)
not sure what the core voltage is but it doesn't matter since it's not adjustable outside of voltmods.
its a bit of a letdown, i'll agree with the others
Gotta love NVIDIA marketing, I don't know if I should cry or laugh. :rofl:
Guess now they can also blame the 8800GT shortages that they're already planning on a "new" product, ie. 9800GTS, isn't it wonderful! :)
88gts=1.18vQuote:

i confused? shader volt? sorry, i should have specified # of shaders instead of asking "do you know the shaders yet?"Quote:

Well actually doesn't the 8800GT stock run 1.05V? With the bios mod it jacks it up to 1.1V.Quote:

Interesting, it scores about the same as a stock-clocked 8800GTS 512MB.
so thats how they do it?
lol might be :D
Qimonda GDDR3 + no dedicated vDDQ = sucky RAM OCs.
This is really just a 8800GTS 512MB...
... and it has rounded PCB corners?!?
128 sp :)Quote:

seems to be slower than the 8800gts........i dont know where nvidia is going with this......they should have named the 8800gt/s as the 9800's so we wouldnt be in this situation IMO
I concluded my little research and I'm proud to say that Nvidia made a mistake and saw it on time to hopefully turn an end on it, its mistake was name a G9(entitled G92) product as 8800GT and 8800GTS. G92 was supposed to be only G9 products and not G8 Series.
Now what could they do?
Meaningless to say. They will launch a full range of G9 products now and by the end of this year, time for the new upcoming GPU(GX). Nvidia is probably waiting for Intel to launch its new motherboard chipset design. So the most Nvidia products are only a refresh until the end of the year. So then we will probably see something scary.

except u erased the wrong side of the bottom loop...Quote:

Or its because than the card isnt 100% identical to the 8800GT/GTS lol:ROTF:
really i have no clue what Nvidia is doing :shrug:
All of this nVidia nonsense is killing me!!!
I'm jumping to ATI on principle!
so a PCB revision on a card means it needs a new name, which conveniently hints at a new generation.
Uneducated people might realistically buy this to replace their 8800GT/GTS 512MB
If thats how nVidia treat their market, screw em.
i think the only card that wont be a disappointment from nvidia is the already released 9600gt. that card overclocks very nicely, and it gets very close to the much more expensive cards in terms of performance when overclocked.

Oh yeah and to support their theory that this card isnt psysically the same to the 8800GT/S(thus can be called a new generation)... they rounded the edges of the PCB... hahaha! OH MY GOD :rofl:
This is sad! :clap:
yea, i dont understand, if its the same exact thing except for a newer version of opengl, why even bother creating it and releasing it? its not even cheaper to produce. it will probably be released at the same price as the 8800gts, thus making that card obsolete anyway.
9 series as of now = FAIL
ima going to get two more 8800 gtx for tri sli:D

They think they get even a better card than their new bought 8800GT/S. But in comparision they pay even more for the same, or even lesser performance. I guess that 2x 8800GT in SLI at same clocks performs as good as a 9800GX2.
Only the GX2 is 1.5 times as expensive as 2x 8800GT. They now earn 25% more on each core they sell.
Because Nvidia marketing is quite good, people will upgrade from a 8800GT/s to a 9800xx card.
Isnt that wonderfull?
I dont know sure, but thats my theory
Yeah, but the 9-series is the same as the 8 series, which is DEAD as you say,Quote:

"Magical 9"? GeForce9-series = utter FAIL. Just rebranded previous version.
Moreover, the 780 is also just rebranded previous version with an added
chip. nv is getting increasingly lame nowadays. It's high time AMD and Intel
kicked their @$$es to get them moving.
just noticed the mounting holes, G80 compatibility only.
but the 9800GTX has G92 mounting holes?

nVidia just want's to make as much money possible off of their current core-designs... Why the hell would they launch cards that perform a lot better than their current, when THEIR own cards would be the only competition? As long as ATI doesn't come with something that nVidia can compete with, it is highly unlikely that we will see a substantial perfomance boost in nVidia's lineup.
I can assure all wiseguys (including myself) that nVidia KNOWS what they are doing. It is a billion-dollar corporation for a reason.
And what? GeForces 8 are DEAD, because has a new names ...Quote:

someone have the bios for this card? i want it.

nvidia, wtf are you guys doing?!
yeah but the 9800gts is clearly a 8800gts replacement. i want the bios for the 9800gts... does anyone have it?
Yeah, that bios on 8800GTS 512MB would be worth of try...
fitseries3,
Why would you want the bios?
It would only work in a card physically identical to this one.
Don't worry, the thread is 6 months old and these cards aren't available even now so it's safe to say 9800GTS does not, nor will ever, exist.Quote:

Frankly, I would be rather embarrassed if I was caught boldly faced lying so many times, but well... Some people have no shame. Even if they do "work for one of the biggest computer mags in Europe." Well, that's his claim at least, wonder just how true even THAT IS? :D ;)
What wild tales will he tell next? What sort of mainstream internet rumors will he give his personal twist to make it appears somewhat believable?
"GT200-b coming December much good $550 retail coming, GTX 260 core 216 respun 55nm maybe improved clocks, coming 1 1/2 month later estimated. Look for it guys!"
Is that right on the money? Am I close?
Sorry for the rant, but the man just loves predicting the future, but not just that, pretending he "knows." Gets really old having the same old OBR playing his same old tricks in every topic, and people rarely call him out on it. Probably out of the desperate hope he's not lying and will bless us with some info, sadly I've never seen that info be accurate even once. Don't mean to sound... Well mean, but I call em like I see em and this dude obviously likes posting made up hype/future predictions as fact for attention.
Well, sometimes the attention is going to end up being negative, like in this case.
if the 8800gt ---> 9800gt
then 8800gts --->9800gts right?
i have a 8800gts 512mb card and i would like to try it.
fitseries3,
As I said, your 8800GTS would need to be physically identical to the 9800GTS shown in the 1st post.
