$150 would too much for this chip. Sub $100-110 would be more suiting.

More like inches closer to complete failure. If only everyone was in the loop of things.

For those who missed it, the review is up: http://enthusiast.hardocp.com/article.html?art=MTYxNCwxLCxoZW50aHVzaWFzdA==

I knew this would become vaporware the moment I heard about it; it was just a matter of time.

Now if only XFX had an app like this :(

Technically its only 6 heatpipes and not 12. I'm doing alright. Are you writing reviews for [H]? Speaking of reviews, where is that review :p +1 as the HDT-S1283 is a great performing HSF plus it has better value.

I am looking forward on seeing and reading the results :rockout:

Now this is exactly what I was waiting for :rockout:

No offence but thats incorrect and unless I am mistaken, all 9800GTX+ video cards are 55nm. For anyone who wants some reassurance, just take off the cooler and if the core is a B revision, then its a 55nm core.

Great review. Depending on how the 9600GT performs against the 8800GS and whether or not I can wait for the rest of the 9 Series, I might just get an EVGA 8800GS.

Lets hope you aren't going to AM2 from a S939 rig as that isn't the smartest move but if you don't have a S939 then going with AM2 is a good move since its more futureproof and S939 is pretty much dead. One tihng you could have had in mind is getting the new X1900XT cards which are just as cheap...

I recommend Corsair's Nautilus500 kit. http://www.corsairmemory.com/corsair/nautilus_500.html Here are some reviews of it: http://www.neoseeker.com/Articles/Hardware/Reviews/corsairnautilus500/ http://www.hothardware.com/viewarticle.aspx?articleid=789&cid=9...

So then I guess if it ain't a VIVO card it I can't unlock all 16pipes even by using software?

I was looking around and am thinking about picking up a Sapphire X800Pro AGP and noticed that it uses 2.0 chips and the HIS BIOS of an X800XT from this website had 2.0 chips too so I was wondering if it is possible to unlock all 16pipes using this BIOS or is it even possible at all or can I...

I don't think its really worth it. Even if you get 10 or even 20 extra FPS it is already a fast card so you won't really notice.
