  • that's my card had it about 3 years still plays everything just fine

  • Remeber i bought 2 of these sli

  • @TomoSLB Same i still got them till today

  • Hi mate what is better a 460 GTX or that 8800 GTS ????

  • 0:16 ''IS THE ALPHA DOG!'' I just fall from my chair of laught :DDD

  • help what is the minimum power requirements for this card[ no sli ]

  • I still use that card! :D

  • i dont get that gt 220 is better tan 9800gt al they do is swap round the gt

  • actually you get better for less money with Ati... while nvidia are more expensive. 9800gt is 50$ more expensive than the hd 4850 and is slower.

  • hd 4850

  • this or HD 4850?

  • 4850 of course

  • thanks :)

  • the 4850 is a LITTLE bit better

  • @KKOPPI I know. I bought the 4850. Its incredible for the price

  • When i overclock it, it wont overheat, heat rises for 5celc, so not so much, the driver just crashes.

  • since its XFX, you are still under warranty man. Call them and get a replacement!!

  • When i clock the card with like 80mhz more for core and 50mhz for memory and i go game, i can play for a while and after like 20 minutes, pops up that my display driver is crashed. Got idea what to do ?

  • overheating.

  • run it at stock, easy.

  • I would consider underclocking, then if it stills does that, re-install or update your drivers, if it STILL does it, send it in for a replace.

  • i have the 9800gt by pny with 1gb video

  • its ok run with 1 core.. lol

    i have a processor but it has 1 core..

    im not buying a new processor...

  • I got a Core 2 Quad Q6700 for £131 brand new. but OEM edition.

  • Say even though the compatibility says for windows vista, can this card still work for windows xp media centre?

  • windows xp media center edition is actually Windows XP Professional with some stuff removed, and some stuff added, if you check windows version or properties in my computer it should say professional, but any way it's Pro, but yeh it will.

  • hey i have a question will this run Arma 2 on high settings?

  • not really

  • lol id be surprised if it ran on low

  • Comment removed

  • my dad doesn't have a graphics card :(

  • i have this sexy piece.. and blv me guys... it ran Crysis on Ultra settings at 1152 x 864 @38 fps

  • this or evga 8800 gtx ko?

  • I have a question...

    This can run in my Intel Pentium 4?

    Thanks for reply!

  • pentium 4 would bottleneck it badly upgrade to at least a pentium dual core(over clock it)

  • Is this better than the 8800 Ultra?

  • yep

  • way better lol...

    this was 1 of the best graphic cards ever made

  • Is this a huge leap over the geForce 7950 GT?

  • A major leap, you'll see over 200% performance increase or higher mate.

  • ATI sux.I had hd 3870, and now i have gtx 260, i will never buy ati! For instance 8800gt is beter than the 3870x2 and the gtx 260 is beter than the HD4870 1gb version. ATI sux (again).

  • Uh...3870x2 > 8800GT.

    The GTX260 and 4870 are evenly matched.

    Back before Nvidia halved the prices on their GTX200 series, ATi raped them. You could get the performance of a GTX260 ($449) for around $200. Now it's down to preference and if your motherboard supports SLI or CrossFire.

  • actually the 1gb version of the 4870 is competing with the core 216 version of the gtx 260 while the 4870 512 mb competes with the regular gtx 260

  • eehm.. the hd 4870x2 is the best you can get, ATI, i have 3 gtx 280's but my nect upgrade will be the 4890x2, that card will come from asus, it's awsome, is owns everything

  • 2900 pro and 2900 xt has 320 stream processors!! (X

  • ati's stream processors are way slower....the 2900 xt's shaders are clocked at 750 mhz, the 8800 gts 512 is at 1.625 ghz

  • ATI and NVIDIA use different Stream processor Architectures.

    320 in ATI is like.. 60ish in nvidia SP's.

  • i got 1 very nice card=P

  • lol first off evga is better, second the gtx 295 would kill this graphics card 600 times over

  • lol, evga is not better than xfx xD and the gtx 295 is much more expansive, so put 2 of this card in the system and still have som money left and have a better computer :P

  • i would rather get a 295.. has 2 gpus so its the same as 2 cards,.... in one

  • ok shure, the 295 is best, but i have this card and it is fast :)

  • the 295 is like 3x as much as the 8800gts 512! i found one on newegg for 150! that is a great deal, i think.

  • is this card faster than the 9800GTX or the 9X2??

    what about the HD 4870....

  • no!

  • OK MAN, relax, thanks.....

  • don't tell me to relax, my life sucks, i want to die.

  • it's faster than the 9800gtx in some games(equal to in most, costs a lot less though). the gx2 costs more thatn 3 times as much as the 8800gts. the only reason to get the gx2 is because a.) you have a really large screen, or b.) you want to play crysis on very high with good framerate. i personally would get the 8800gts because it is so inexpencive and if you want more power, you can put it in sli.

  • with 1 8800gts 512mb on crysis 1680x1050 everything on max AAx8 i got 14-20 fps, pretty god for the price :P

  • mhmm, ok, i'll remeber that, thanks

  • what OS? on vista or xp?

  • xp sp3 ;) but i have overclocked it pretty much ^^

  • ye, but with xp u can't get in highest quality.. xp dont support only vista.. so:

    High=xp

    Very High=vista

    so really great isnt it.

  • shure, but i'm gone change to windows 7 when it comes out and i'l overclocke it some more (cpu to) and i'l have much better ram, i'l let you know what it will do if you want ;)

  • okay..

  • I love this thing. I threw one in my computer to replace two 7600GSs in SLI on my Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe w/ AMD X2 4200+... I know it's bottlenecked a lot, but Crysis can play maxed out pretty smoothly...

  • O_o OMG!! its a ship! god damm! hahaha i love alpha dog! y love nvidia! oh god! i'm exsaust xD haha, i'm from argentina :D i raly love USA :D, logan u rock man, and the program is awesome like the graphics cards and the mootherbords and and oh SHI_ i realy loveit

  • @tetrikocod2 haha i got two of them

  • @MarcusFlicks now in 2011, for christmas my father gift me a gtx 580 :D

  • I bought this graphics card

    ,but the lowest wide screen resolution is 1600 x 900.

    Is there any way that i can play on lower wide screen resolutions?

  • maybe 1680*1050 if you got a 22' monitor

  • whats the power requirements for SLI, i order two last from newegg and i have a thermaltake 500W.

    just to be sure i ordered: XFX PVT88GYDF4 GeForce 8800GTS (G92)

    and i also ordered a 22INCH monitor

    also is this one really better than the 9800 GTX+

  • im having the same problem with the power supply requirement, i have bought a 600watt, and i used a converter (4molex to 6pin converter) to plug it in on the card, but on the manual of the graphic card it says do not use a converter. So i gave the 600Watt back, and getting a 700Watt with a 6pin, so i dont have to use a converter. I should receive it soon, i will tell you if it works or not.

  • I think its 450 watts, just have 550 watts to be safe.

  • I have this card and its awsome ^^

    Playing crysis on ultra high settings and 1360x960!And far cry 2 on very high and 1680x1050

  • I have the XFS 8800GTS Alpha Dog Edition 640mb. I heard a few rumors that the 8800GT was better. Apparently, it isnt.

  • It is. The 8800GTS has 3 versions. 320mb 640mb and the 512mb

    The 512mb is faster and better than the others.

    The 8800gt is faster than the 320mb and the 640mb but not the 512mb.

  • im talking about my OC'd version of the 640 vs a non-OC'd 8800gt.

  • but for a much higher resolution it is more effective if you go with the 640, then turn up the fan speed, and oc it then at the higher resolutions it is better, but overall the gts is better

  • should get this or the 9800 gtx g92?

  • I heard that the ASUS EN9800GT ULTIMATE is very similar to this card. Same core and cooler... I'll prob pick that one up:)

  • no the 9800gt Is very Similar to the 8800gt. Very similar in the sense they are EXACTLY the same apart from 10nm smaller on the GPU Process.

  • I got the same card, but i dont got the driver CD. :O is it allowed to download?

  • yeah,ofcourse.they got them on the nvida. com website

  • can someone list each game they showed in order please?

  • my bad, wrong video.

  • I got this card :) Its the best card ive ever tried :) Soon im going SLI on my asus P5N-D.

  • i got im for 120 on ebay

  • ive got me a 8800 GTS Alpha Dog Edition xxx edition ^^

  • can someone tell me how long is this card?

  • something like 9 and half inches i own it

  • how long is this card?

  • i got this iwth a amd6400, and this 8800gts graphics card, and asus m2n sli (which is a pos and sent back to get a evga 680i and a intel e7200) i got about max of 300 fps but it self in high settings 16x anti aliasing and 1440x900 res. this card is worth it. for the the 9 series.

  • can u have this on GA-P35-DS4?

  • my comp specs amd phenom x4 9500 4 gb ddr2 ocz 800, 8800 alpha dog edition, and have no problem im runing assasin creed unreal 07 cof4 and crysis well is juts fine this is a great video card!!!! highly recomended

  • is the 8800 GT AlphaDog....a G92 card ??

  • no, the G92 is the 8800 GTS not GT, but yes.

  • but yes??

  • yeah you are right

  • aboslutley, and its as good as the 9800gtx since the 9800gtx is supposdely just an overclocked version of the 8800gts

  • Yeah should i get 2 8800 gt in sli for £210 or 8800 gts 512 for £165????? Thanks

  • I just got this card.. Blimey. Will OC soon :D

  • if you have sli mobo wouldnt it be smat to get 1 of these then a second later over two 8800gt's if you can afford it

  • This card is great, you can OC the shit out of this thing without it getting hot at all. Great video.

  • should i get one of these or two 8800gt's

  • two 8800 GT gonna smoke one of those.

  • ok, thanks

  • what about two of those? :P

  • those of those will cost about the same OR MORE than a 9800 GX2.So it's your choice.

  • ya but two of them Slied will DESTROY a single 9800 GX2

  • Got mine for free from Fry's! :)

  • i think this card will run farcry 2 well what do you think i want this card it's £140

  • know i know what to get for my birthday :D.

    this card and age of conan XD.

    tiger direct's awsome.

  • Got this card now its awesome its REALLY good

  • just ditched my old 8600gt and order myself this one!

  • Haha, if you dont even know how to overclock your CPU, dont.. You'll just wreck it.

  • go to your bios and adjust the FSB frequency or ratio to equal your desired clock speed

    Ex. 333X9=3.0 GHz for pentium dual core E2160

  • Can somebody tell me how to overclock an Graphics Card? I only know how to overclock CPUs.

  • Download "Rivatuner" or any equivelant program.

  • use a program called Riva tuner

  • IS THE ALPHAAAAAA DOGGGGGG!!

  • this card makes me cream....

  • LOL ! :D

  • haha lol...:D

  • ANG GWAPO!!! BIBILI AKO NYAN hehe

  • On crysis i have my AA on 2, and evertying else on high to very high. But sometimes it still lags. IS this normal?

    my rig is q6600 3ghz, 2gig of ram, GTS 8800 512mb

  • Yeah its normal NICE PC THO, Crysis is a VERY VERY HIGH demanding Game so dont worrie its Crysis not you PC if you want a good card it then wait for the 9800X2 to come out

  • Yeah, I can play 1360x728 with 4x AA and mostly Very High and get a stable 30fps, but if I try upping the resolution further it craps out.

    Make sure you overclock it, it has a lot of headroom, at least my BFG version does.

    I've got the core at 770MHz and the memory at 1155MHz, and it's pumping out 74GB/s.

    Makes a noticeable difference in FPS.

  • try adding more ram...i recomment having 4gig for a game like crysis

  • why?the memory quantity doesn'taffect graphic performance, u get te same FPS on crysis with 2gigs just like 4gigs!!

    read some ooks before saying bullsit!

  • it is true memory quantity won't make a difference, but this is only true when playing on lower resolution. However as the user increases his/her resolution, the texture and fill is more demanding. Adding more memory will fill in to these demands.

  • But if it doesnt even use 1.5 gigs, 2 is fine

  • did the price of these just go up 100$???

  • what resolution? also turning off AA will help

  • Nvidia's GeForce 9600 GT review PLZ!!!!!!!!

  • I got this graphics card around 2 weeks ago when I built my computer, it a kick ass card though it didn't come with Company of Heroes. Is this a American only offer? Or not, I got everything else that was meant to come with it.

  • Getting one of these, get a 2nd later for SLI gaming

  • i am getting 2 of those cards...

    And quad core q6600 3gb ram etc

    can i play crysis on max with that?

  • Of course you can play crysis but you`re board has to have pci-E 16 on all slots

  • Dude... I seriously Recommend that you get Two 8800 GT, Read the Reviews... They are FAR WAY BETTER than the GTS, Trust me... I was going to Buy 2 GTS and a Friend Told me The same thing I'm Telling you, Actually... Logan from tigertirect itself Says its Alot better than the GTS... And Im talking about For example... (in my case)

    GTS Runing Crysis = 21 Fps - 26 (overcloaked)

    GT Runing Crysis (in my PC SLI) = 60 Fps - 70

    I hope Everything come out Well for you Buddy :D

  • but are u playing on max graphs then?

    and i alrdy buyed the cards q.q but ok that isnt a big problem

    p.s do someone reccomend a liquidcooling

  • but anyway ty m8 ^^

  • ha youre a laugh mate :D My 8800gts is running crysis with everything on high, EVERYTHING (except filters and aa) and i get from 30-40fps, with overclock ofcourse.

  • The gts is an awesome card, I never said it wasnt... I'm just saying that I like the GT Better, I had a GTS Alpha dog Before, and my new GT is giving me better performance, thats why I Got Another one in SLI and Its JUST AWESOME, But the gts Also have My Respect, no Complains at all :D

  • Hey mate, we are talking about the same and NEW gts right? Cause it makes no sense that you got better performance with a gt :S what WAS your 3dmark06 score and what IS it now?

  • Nop, There the only computer configuration that Can Run Crysis At max Detail etc... and Max Antianalising... is the Trio of Geforce Ultra, But I recommend to Wait a little for the Geforce 9 series, read the previews, One of the two cards of the 9 series cards that is gonna come out its gonna Run with 35% more efficiency than the Geforce Ultra.

  • well i dont need to be max atleast high?

  • Well no, Anyway... I've two 8800 GT, and its AWESOME. I couldn't ask more

  • i got this card :P

  • Can some one tell me which 8800 GTS or PNY 8800 GTX is faster in running games like CoD4, Oblivion, and Future Games, Thx.

  • I like you by me in Germany we don`t have shows like this !!! Verry good

  • ALter du bist nervts. Mich wie sau. Aber die amy stehn auf so einen scheiß typen.

  • tomorrow i will get my XFX 8800gtS 512mb 678mhz

    XXX alpha dog edition!!!

  • u r Showing OFF man...

  • srry man but im really happy....its my first "super graphics card".....then i can play crysis at maximum

  • u still cant plai crysis at maximum, at least not at any decent resolutions, but its a nice card. gratz

  • terrible edited video :(

  • watch your mouth T_T

  • i volt modded this to 850MHz core clock.

  • YER i just got this today!!! whooo its good!!

  • wrong

  • now its

    1. 3870 X2 (r680)

    2. 8800 ultra

    3. 8800 GTX

    4. 8800 gts g92 512 mb

    5. 8800 Gt

    6. 8800 gts 640 mb

  • So, The GTS is better than the GT? Is the GTX the best?

  • its suposta be

    1. 8800 ultra

    2. 8800 GTX

    3. 8800 GTS (g92)

    4. 8000 GT

    5. 8800 GTS 640mb

    imo its

    8800 ultra then 8800 gts then gtx then gt

  • you are 100% right

  • this dudes hilarious.

  • can you use 3 of these cards in 3 way sli?

  • Why would you need to?

  • No, you can't. 3-Way SLI is only for three 8800 GTX or three 8800 Ultra. And also you need a nForce 780i Motherboard

  • ok u sed u had a Nvidia 8800 gts 320

  • 8800 Gts 640 mb oc

  • ok, plz tell me if this would run crysis on high

    EVGA 320-P2-N811-AR GeForce 8800GTS 320MB 320-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card

  • Course it would

  • so that video card i put would run crysis on high?

  • Yes what cpu u got
