Show off your video card!

Rob Williams · 01-31-2005, 07:30 PM

I see a couple other forums have this going on in their forums, and seems to do well. So if you are proud of your video card, feel free to post a picture of it!

Just a pic from the link I got. Mine will be set on a dangerden GPU block by the end of the week.

GapDragon · 03-29-2005, 03:36 PM

Augh! How do I include a picture??

Rob Williams · 03-29-2005, 06:02 PM

Upload it to a image site like Photobucket, and link to the picture with (img)http://website.com/image.jpg(/img).. replacing the ('s with [ and ].

Nice and dirty! Those PCB's are so hard to get dust off of :|

Here's my 9800 Pro:

dukeman · 03-30-2005, 10:25 PM

Hooray for the gamer on a budget!!!

Imagine if you will a BFG 6800GT OC with a crappy NV5 Silencer on it and there you have my video card. Got a Zalman VF700 on the way, even if it doesnt cool any better than the NV5, which it cant do much worse, it will still be better than the stock heatsink and it will match my Zalman 7000Cu

Rob Williams · 07-15-2005, 05:24 PM

Happen to have temp problems with your 6800GT OC?

I hate mine.

Greg King · 07-15-2005, 08:31 PM

What drivers are you using? I was loving my beanchmark scores with the 75.90's but the drivers caused faulty temp readings. I am not sporting the 71.89 forcewares and they are much more realistic. The 6800's no matter the version all run hot. They are the Intel's of the GFX realm. What temps are we talking about?

When my VF700 comes in, you can have be NV5 if you would like it.

Are you going to email me back?

Rob Williams · 07-15-2005, 08:40 PM

Hehe, sorry. E-mails gotten backed up.. works been screwing up my free time. Going to it now.

Greg King · 07-15-2005, 11:44 PM

I know how it goes man. Just kidding around with you.

Rob Williams · 10-13-2005, 10:05 PM

Guess I should update this now.

Of course, that's before water cooling.
