look what I got today :

[Gamer]

but had to pay for it


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

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.

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.

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

[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.
