Well it just seems to me like you couldn't cool this enough to overclock the equipment currently in it :<

ps: So you've added the GF 6800 yourself? :| and you're selling it for only € 1.000,00? o_O

..gg =\

And if it's sponsored by nvidia, why don't they at least add in one of their own components in the prize? ;p

scores kinda little in 3d mark 05 imo , i get 3xxx with my 9800xt , or is it just much harder getting higher scores on 05 ?


Ati owns nVidia in 3dMark05... and that includes the latest GPU's...

Yeah, NVidia scores low in 3DMark 2005. Still, I'd take a 6800 GT over a 9800XT any day of the week. It's much faster in games than 3Dmark shows.

3dmark is shit, best test is the performance when playing/using a well specced machine. my gt flies through anything you can throw at it.

That's my point. 3DMark doesn't really show that.

I get 5776 3Dwanks with my x800xt pe for what it's worth. I wouldn't say it completely blows 6800s out of the water in games though (well, maybe in some :p )

Depends on the game too...

Nvidia pwns on UT2004

ATI pwns on HL2

Who cares anyway...

*strokes his GF4

does me fine...I've been playing computer games since ZX spectrum days...and had loads of fun even though the graphix sucked... I can't keep up with all these new cards anyway.

Well ATI is faster in UT (at the highest settings) if that's what you mean. Of course I'm making a large leap here as you don't seem to be able to express yourself very clearly. :)
