8800GTS 512MB G92 Review

[RPGWiZaRD]

I dont really trust those results?

Me neither as I said earlier, there's no way a G92 8800GTS can loose to a 8800GT in ANY test at ANY settings as this card has everything 8800GT has and more, so I'm definitely not buying TweakTown's review as a preview of 8800GTS 512MB performance, this is more like a bully review towards NVIDIA.

If I got such results I wouldn't even publish the results. Just gives site bad image and if I remember right it's not the first time a TweakTown review has been questioned.

Think il do what i always do wait for some xs guys to get there hands on the card and show us what it can do in a proper rig.
Think il go for the 8800GT tho will be a nice budget step up from my 7900GTO.

or what du u mean?

they don't seem high enough. I just thought of a way we can test this out. Let's just have someone clock their 8800gt to the same specs as the gts (gpu/shader/mem clocks) and compare them to their 8800gt at the refrence clocks. If the difference seems about the same as that of the tweaktown's review, I say it'll be safe to say that tweaktown has an 8800gt in disguise/faked the results. If the results are a bit lower than tt's gts, then we can say they're probably legit.

I have a feeling they may have received a card but just had a gt under the hood, if you recall expreview got on of those cards with the gts cooler but simply had a gt underneath. Because if they didn't have a card, nvidia would probably have had tt take down the review by now

Agree with you.

I downclocked my 8800GT and Q6600 to their settings (650 core and Kent @ 3.0) and get very close to their 3dmark results. I'll try Crysis as well.

It looks like a slightly overclocked 8800GT with a bigger cooler to me.

now that looks legit, lets see how it performs in their review

[YukonTrooper]

Good to see it doesn't carry the GTX and Ultra length. Otherwise I would have to cut some metal out of my Antec Solo case to make it fit.

[tbone8ty]

lets see under the hood!!

[Zytek_Fan]

I like the stylish GeForce logo on the side

Where/who is TZ?

i wonder why power consumption is so high and the card still so hot

Maybe you need triple slot stock cooler

Power consumption is high? ~35% lower power consumption than G80 GTX at load and performs probably slightly better too. I'd consider that as a great result from a dieshrink. I doubt this card will be any hotter than G80 GTS by a stock cooler comparision.

NVIDIA G92 Overclocked - GT vs. GTS 512

[K404]

From mascaras pictures, it looks like it has the same mounting as the GTX, and it has an IHS.

Please can someone confirm?

Thanks!

Interesting....

[fireice2]

teh big question... how much does this thing cost? If its around $100 from the GT, I rather go for the GT.

Depends. MORE REVIEWS GODDANGIT!

[Daveb2012]

the 65nm tech is nice, but its just a big yawn till nv puts something with substance out next year. I dont see the point in spending the money on this or the GT for a 5-10% gain

I can tell you its dependent on what you're doing. Personally going from a 8800gts/320 -> 8800gt OC on a 1680x1050 display makes a big difference to me. The games I play are a lot smoother like COD4, I'm actually playing better because the FPS isn't so bad. This card OC's like a beast though.

Really? my gts 320 runs cod4 very good, 94 fps avg, 51fps minimum at 1280x1024 with 2xAA, 2xTSAA, and 16xAF...?

dissapointing price

[YukonTrooper]

According to those scores it looks like it will be in between the GTX and Ultra. Not great but not bad by any means. Depending on final price (North America) it might be a pretty good buy.
