Purdy.... i love black on computer parts.

I also like how NVIDIA managed to make that a single slot card. Mine used to be a single slot card.... then i messed with it.

Rob Williams · 10-15-2005, 01:49 PM

Yeah, I love single slot cards. I've never had a double slot one, and I hope to never have a double slot one.

Blumen · 10-26-2005, 04:16 PM

Oops, i forgot a couple. In addition to the one that i posted up there, in my backup rig, i have this:

PNY Verto FX5900se

Powercolor 9600XT 256mb Bravo Edition

^I think that's the 128mb version, but you get the idea.

The first one i posted is an Asus v9999 Gamer's Edition, btw.

Man, i just deleted a bunch of pics off of Image Shack. I have some nice shots of my 5900XT I need to dig up and get on here. AFAIK, it still holds the #1 spot in 3DMark05 using FM approved drivers with a score of 1515.

Here's my current card sans the waterblock

eVGA 6800nu

and my old card with it's block

ASUS FX 5900U

Boy that card was a great card, it was an overclocking darling.

Rob Williams · 11-08-2005, 10:09 PM

Nice looking cards man. The green PCB looks just like my 7800GT, and the blue one like my 6800GT. They certainly didn't seem to change too much.

madmat · 11-08-2005, 10:52 PM

When the 5900U came out this was the second card to hit the market and when I bought it it cost a friggen mint...$550.00.

Yeah, they haven't really changed the PCB's much since the FX series came out, to me it looks like a little minor design changes with a different GPU soldered on although I'm sure they're considerably different under the skin.

Sweet pics of your cards, guys

I would post up mine, but my lowly ATI 8500 LE just doesn't cut it anymore

(don't worry, an upgrade is about to take place

)

I don't care how many people trash talk Swiftech for using molded tops, that just looks good.

I like the molded tops myself, I have both the APOGEE and MCW60 with molded tops................

As a matter of fact, I also have the Storm CPU block and with both CPU and GPU water cooled, I get better performance using the APOGEE and MCW60 than I did when I tried the Storm with the MCW60.

My old 9800Pro.

Rob Williams · 03-06-2006, 11:08 AM

The 9800Pro was an _amazing_ card. It's now in my moms computer doing nothing
