no amount of overclocking can bring it where I want it performance-wise.
besides, if i wanted to watercool the vid card I'd need to build a whole new loop. thats a lot more than 80$ lol. this q6600 b3 is ****. lol throws off enough heat on its own. VID is over 1.35 or something stupid, for an idea.
im just curious because I could pretty much get the 9800gtx for straight trade + maybe make 20$, and have a chance at an evga step up in july (if they arent screwing around). I know the two cards are pretty much the same but I just don't want to sit through 2 or 3 months of worse performance if its more of a downgrade from what i already have, playing at 1920x1200 (or 1680x1050 in AoC/Oblivion). |
You should rid of that 8800Ultra IMHO, then buy a 9800gtx like krazyq said, plus the 9800gtx overclocks like a monster too... and its memory clock is already past 2000mhz, you could keep pushing it
