Me lucky one got hands of a 8800GT.
Having a rig with the n650 chipset i was wandering if there would be a big difference between running the Board on PCI-E x16 and PCI-E x8 (running dual Grafics the Board changes 1x PCI-E x16 to 2x PCI-E x8). Just did a simple 3DMark06 on Standard Test
Testrig:
Processor Intel Core 2 E6600
Graphics Driver NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT
DirectX Version 9.0c
System Memory 2048 MB (667 3-3-3-12)
Disk Space 476.95 GB (2x 250GB Samsung RAID 0)
Motherboard Manufacturer ASUSTeK Computer INC.
Motherboard Model P5N-E SLI
Operating System Microsoft Windows XP
System is not OCed right now
PCI-E x16 / PCI-E x8 (7900GT on second Slot)
3DMark Score 10331 / 10178
SM2.0 4881 / 4838
SM 3.0 4989 / 4835
CPU 2150 / 2147
Return to Prox 40.148 / 40.037
Firefly 41.202 / 40.592
Canyon 49.17 / 48.33
Deep Freeze 50.617 / 48.366
Seems like it hasn't a real impact on standard, but I'll increase the load with higher settings and AA/AF later to see how it is when the card gets really stressed.
