Someone want to part with a skt 775 board that does AGP & DDR? I have everything i need, minus the board! :cry:

Seriously

In late 2006 Gainward released a third '7800 GS' card with 20 pixel shaders running at 500 MHz core and 1400 MHz memory called the "BLISS GS-GLH".[14] This card is also based on the 7900 GS core.

Gainward Bliss Golden Sample 7800GS+ GLH Goes Like Hell Special Edition 512 Mb
This was not just a G71, but a very rare card that had the 7900GTX 1.2ns Ram

BTW Stock Clocks are 500/700[1400]

690 700[1400] Was the fastest Furmark AGP card and 1 of the highest video scoreing AGP with the Q6700

Very interesting!
What about the 7950GT AGP, Surely with a big cooler it could beat it?

And how does the 3850 go against this thing overclocked?

Cheers!

TRWOV · Jun 19, 2013

The 3850 has roughly twice the horsepower of the 7950GT and X1950Pro

revin · Jun 20, 2013

Yes indeed ! Compare my sig score of 6500 vs 12000, BUT it's also worth noting that my S.M.x score's were not that far apart, it ws the extra HP of the Q6700 that made the bigest differance P4EE3.4@3.8=CPU Score 8xx
Sadly ALOT of my posting's with AGP and P4 are gone long ago[a TPU server Back up issue]

Note here i'm the only nVidia AGP this far up, jtleon was the last AGP card

Lastly, about IQ, the Bliss looked better in text[like Matrox did] but they both did Crysis very good,[tweaked High profiles], but the nod is to the 3850, it was somewhat smoother, BUT it was also much better when I went to the Q6700/conroe865PE !

How about a Socket A ddr board? :pimp:

Sorry for raising the dead, but I just found this on Facebook marketplace.

Is it the same as the one you described? Notice you can see the bridge chip under the cooler:

looking forward to putting it through it's paces when it arrives! Cost me £55 inc postage

Crikey, this is a blast from the past!

Yeah, post some photos and benchies when you get it.

Will do! I can do some comparisons with my AGP HD 3850. In fact - shameless plug - it'll no doubt end up featured on my https://www.youtube.com/c/RetroKomodo channel

Yes Indeed that's her ! She was a BRUTE !
Just DONT Furmark it crazly, it cooked my TIM, there is / was a good bit of data that lemonadesoda and I benched thru , I started this card with a 3.4EE chip, then a Q6700
IIRC I was firmly at 700+ clock, and 1500+ mem . she's boxed up in my attic with a couple of Abit boards
Great find , please keep us updated on it :toast:

sorry I'm late been too much going on this summer :twitch:

RETROKOMODO · Sep 26, 2022

Little update: When I initially benched this card on 3DMark2001 it finished with decent scores, but idled at 65 and had hit 125 degrees after the benchmark run!! I found it had no paste at all - just silicon to metal - so re-pasted, and now idles at 35 - topping out at 49. Phew.. Also I've compared 3DM2001 SE scores with my AGP HD 3850 which gets 44485 points, the 7800 GS gets only 37579. That's with an E7600.

Gonna do a video on putting a better cooler on it which will require.. hmm.. some modification!

qubit · Sep 26, 2022

Glad the card didn't get destroyed. Very lucky.

RETROKOMODO · Sep 26, 2022

I was a tad concerned when initial tests just gave black screens when rendering after re-pasting - but some BIOS defaulting seemed to fix it. I thought the high temps had popped something!

Hmmm.. interesting. Just running it through Furmark and it says it's a 7950 - which it really isn't!

onemanhitsquad · Sep 26, 2022

I have several AGP , will get more pictures , here are a couple of them.

I finally fitted an Akasa Vortexx Neo cooler to the 7800GS after some fairly hefty cooler modding. All documented for a video of course.. The important thing is - it worked! Of course because of the placement of the chips - one over the other - standard replacement cooler contact was going to be an issue. So I concocted a plan.. I bought a 1mm thick 10cm square copper plate and cut it to the size of the copper base plate on the Vortexx, then sandwiched it in between the cooler and the chips on the card. It'll make sense once you see the video which i'll work on over the weekend. Anyway:

Furmark v1.0.0 run at 1080p for 5 mins:

Stock cooler once re-pasted: Idle - 38 * Max Load - 58
Akasa Vortexx Neo sandwich: Idle - 34 * Max Load - 50

Well I haven't done that - Yet.. Instead I replaced the cooler (which is completely reversible to stock of course) as I mentioned, and here is what I had to do to accomplish this feat of hackery:

Next I think i'll be putting it head to head against my AGP HD 3850 in a benchmark comparison! I expect the 7800 to lose by the way

qubit · Oct 4, 2022

@RETROKOMODO nice mod you done there and look forward to the benchmarks. Channel subbed! :toast:

RETROKOMODO · Mar 28, 2023

I just recently got hold of an AGP HD 4670 so i'll finally be able to tell for myself which is faster - that or an AGP HD 3850! I'll be doing a video comparing one against the other soon - ish..

droid-I · Apr 2, 2023

The "highest end" AGP in my collection.
Quadro FX 4000, essentially close to a MSI 6800 GT, if I got it right. A bit different vs full Quadro, this has only one DVI and one power feed. Board number 8975.

TheoneandonlyMrK · Apr 2, 2023

Oh who knew, can I join, bit late but I have a boxed 3Dfx evil king GPU but no ago slot to put it in, I think I wouldn't anyway as it's brand new unused still.

QuietBob · Apr 2, 2023

I suppose I should join! This is my WinXP+AGP retro rig:

3850 is faster

droid-I · Apr 2, 2023

^ well that was a big difference in 3DMark(40k vs 20k). But yes, DDR3 vs DDR2, 256bit vs 128bit, mem&RAM clock makes a lot.

Just saving somebody some time on their comparison.

I believe the best AGP card I got is a 7800GS, with the tiny stock cooler and everything
