DailyTech spends more quality time with NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce 8800GTX

NVIDIA is set to launch its upcoming G80 GeForce 8800GTX and 8800GTS graphics cards next week, however, DailyTech snagged a GeForce 8800GTX board to run a couple quick benchmarks on. The GeForce 8800GTX used for testing is equipped with 768MB of GDDR3 video memory on a 384-bit memory bus as previously reported. Core and memory clocks are set at 575 MHz and 900 MHz respectively. Other GeForce 8800 series features include 128-bit HDR with 16x anti-aliasing and NVIDIA’s Quantum Physics Engine.

Previous NVIDIA graphics cards in single card configurations were limited to lower levels of anti-aliasing. With the GeForce 8800 series, users can experience 16x anti-aliasing with only a single card. DailyTech has verified the option is available in the NVIDIA control panel.

I'm running a Geforce 6800 P4 3.0G 128K.

The new Medieval Total War runs like crap on this card,Rome Total War and Doom 3 etc. all run fantastic.

May need to upgrade to 8800 card soon.Do they make a PCI version?

Since we are talking video cards...

What, in your opinion, is the best choice in AGP cards for under $250? I play games like Hitman: Silent Assassin and Brothers in Arms?

I lost interest in updating it because of the low traffic.
I envisioned it as a place where gamers would frequently discuss games they were playing.... tips, hints, strategy, etc.

As it turned out, I was averaging 1-3 new adds per week with little or no gaming talk.

Besides spending most of my spare time playing BF2,
Work has severly limited my spare time to keep that thread going.
