Nvidia Videocard Owner Clubhouse

[[I.R.A]_FBi]

I realised the need for a Clubhouse for Nvidia Videocard Users for troubleshooting and new product releases etc.

I'm not a fanboi or anything, just see the need.

Let me start out by saying i own a 7900GS, keep it mostly regular but overclock it to go bench.

Members who want to join please submit a GPU-Z link, which is available here. Please provide as much info as possible about your card (brand, clocks (stock and bench), memory, cooler). If you would like to include an image you can as well. If any one of you guys are running non proprietary drivers could you please state which one and which version and how you found it.

revision one of the club sig is here

Let me start out by saying i own a TNT64, Geforce 2 MX400, Geforce 3Ti 500, 4600Ti, FX5900, 6600GT, 6800GT, 7600GT, 7950GX2,Two 8800GTS in SLI in my old setup.... But now i use ATI

Nvidia Rocks.....

 

[CrAsHnBuRnXp]

I hvae owned an MX440 (i think that was it), Gigabyte FX5200 (stock), BFG nVidia GeForce 6800GS OC (412/1.12) w/ 16 pipes (unlocked), an my current BFG 8800GTS 640MB 600/100.

I have only owned one ATI card and that was a 7000 series card that I hated. Haven t used ATI since.

I edited my post to provide card specs.

 

[N-Gen]

Started off in 1999 with an 8mb ATI model. In the same setup I switched to NVidia of which an MX 440 another MX440 in the newer system and currently running a 512mb 7950 GTX.

 

[JrRacinFan]

Happy nVidia owner here too. Geforce 2, Geforce 4 MX440, Geforce 4 ti4200, and now a Geforce 7600GS.

I have owned a few ATi cards in the past and they all died within a year.

PS: I should make a nvidia owners sigpic. hmmm ....

 

[[I.R.A]_FBi]

nothing too big though ...something kinda like a userbar ...

"TPU Nvidia Videocard owners club"?

vote?

 

[mrw1986]

I currently use an MSI NX8600GT Silent Edition. I'll upload GPU-Z when I get home from work.

 

[Gallatin]

Ι use an GeForce 7950GX2 1GB(521x2) and i am happy.
I own a 440mx, 5200, 6600GT.

[[I.R.A]_FBi]

edited first post and put a link to it there

 

[N-Gen]

Well I got the standard specs here. It runs at 575/700, 256-bit, 3.0 Shaders. Extras of which: HDR, Intellisample 4.0, UltraShadow II, PureVideo, CineFX 4.0, PowerMizer 6.0, Transparency Antialiasing. I know I can get some serious stuff after clocking this baby...I don't have the machine at the moment...had to ship it back to AlienWare for some fixing..turned out to be faulty so more details to come

 

[CrAsHnBuRnXp]

Edited my post.

 

[JrRacinFan]

Here's my take on a user bar. Let me know of suggestions if you guys don't like it.

 

[[I.R.A]_FBi]

slowly updating .. doing assignments as well ...

any comments on teh sig?

 

[CrAsHnBuRnXp]

Forgot. Here is my link for my card. http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/uzhbr/

Nice sig. The word "Owner" is kinda hard to make out. Other than that, it looks good.

 

[3991vhtes]

GeForce FX5500

 

[JrRacinFan]

I can always change the font to something more readable.

The change would have to go through [I.R.A]_FBi though.

Bliss !!!!!!!!!!

I got now what appears to be a very rare Gainward Bliss 7800GS+ 512 Special Edition Golden Sample Go's Like Hell http://www.mwave.com.au/newAU/mwaveAU/productdetail.asp?SKU=42020665
It's got 20, 20, and 7 pipes and I got my '06{4326} bench to run thru at 585/1600
I know it's not a great score, but this thing has got some real power hiding inside, 8xAA and 16xAF, X-HD, UltraShadow II Technology, CineFX 4.0, IntelliSample 4.0, "The fourth-generation Intellisample technology introduces two new antialiasing modes—transparency adaptive supersampling and transparency adaptive multisampling—which increase the quality and performance of antialiasing." demo's are really cool!
I like the sig banner, but it is somewhat hard to read the smaller text.
Any way from what I've found this is like a Rev. 3 of that line.
I started out back in the early 90's with Matrox, had a G400, a Mellinium and added a M3D daughter card with an xtra memory pack installed to it.
Then had 2-3 Creative Labs Nv cards, one of which I still have as a backup a Ti4200.
Tried a Gainward FX5200, but it didn't have VIVO, so I return'd it.
My favorite was a Leadtek/Winfast A380 VIVo, man that thing was the shit, but a faulty fan in a PSU killed it, and my previous AI-7
The previous leader to this Bliss is a BFG 7800GS OC, clocks 500/1500 maxed out features AA,AF ect. had 3rd place in 7800 class ::

Compared to the Bliss maxed out:

Here's the thread I was reporting in http://www.bleedinedge.com/forum/showthread.php?p=240958#post240958
I've added some OCZ500 2048 EBPE-K and gained about 30 points, but need to tweak since it's disabled PAT, and will NOT run using the 667 strap

Seams like it was thru rivatune???

 

[hat]

I've almost always had an Nvidia card. I remember having an old Geforce 5200FX, a GeForce 6800XT, and then a (malfunctioning) x1800XL (ATi), and now this 8500GT. The performance of this card is roughly equivilent to the 6800XT.
