I ordered from Newegg and I got my last Thursday. Mine is NOT the extreme edition. Very quiet and everything runs very good. Unsure why people are getting the extreme edition. Did anyone that registered for the COD2 get any type of e-mail or anything from XFX? I put in for it last week but...
Thanks all for the information. It looks like I got some work to do. So I should uninstall the video card and download one that is suggested. Where do I download this from as it sounds like you guys are not downloading from the mfgr site itself. What is WHQL? I am fairly new at this so the...
This was my first big upgrade. I had high hopes for the 7800GT as I heard EVERYONE talking about it. I installed and put in my new PSU. Everything works great and surprisingly quiet as far as I am concerned. Everyone talks about how loud it is but I just don't hear it. I am running all of...
I am upgrading my new system myself for the first time. So I actually read the install book. It is asking me to use their 6 pin Y adapter which splits it to 2 4-pin cables to get powe to it. My new PSU has a 6 pin cable on it. Can I just directly install it with my 6 pin cable or should I...
I believe the 6 pin Y to 4 pin is used in SLI for hooking both of them together. I know many have used an addiional fan to quiet it down. Go to Anantech.com and ask around there. They are quite knowledgeable. As for color, mine looks exactly like the picture but I bought my through Newegg so...
That was my concern, whether or not I would get the invoice with a date prior to 11/30/05. I would say that to be on the safe side that tonight will be the last night to order this if you want the invoice to show either 11/29 or 11/30
I bought it at $315 also. I did e-mail Newegg to see if they will adjust, but if they don't, its only $6 and I am sure that I will be happy with it. The longer I waited then there was the risk of not having the recipt dated prior to 11/30 so for me its worth it. Mine is already on its way...
I think its a rebate though XFX themselves. If you search the internet, you will see the same exact rebate for each store, Newegg, Monarch, and Zipzoomfly. I am not worried at all.
I believe that as long as the receipt is dated by 11/30/05 you should be ok. If you purchase it today you should be all set even if they ship and process on Monday that is still only 11/28/05.
I believe many have used aftermarket coolers to quiet it down. I am going to install and see how...
I say try to EBay COD2 then. I couldn't believe the price. I ordered mine last night to ensure that it would ship with an order day prior to 11/30/05 so there was no question on the rebate.
If you purchse the XFX PV-T70G-UDF7 Geforce 7800 GT through Zipzoomfly.com before 11/30/05 you are eligible for a $30 rebate. Right now its on sale for $299 after instant rebate. They are now offering FREE second day shipping also. But don't forget that you get the free copy of Call of Duy 2...
Ohh is it, LOL. I did see that one but only heard of the brand a couple of times. I do see why its the better deal, dual +12v at 18, oh my!!!! When I was looking I kept finding the ones with the nice flashy LED lights which I definately do not need. Thanks for the suggestion. I can see why...
I am purchasing a XFX 7800GT an I need to get a new PSU to run it. I have a P4 3.0ghz w/ HT and 1GB Ram. Not running anything out of the ordinary. I believe I need an ATX type, but unsure. My system is a Gateway. Let me know what you think of this one. It had dual +12. As I am blowing a...
I am running a P4 3.oghz w/ HT with 1 gig ram. I will need a new PSU to rund this badboy so I will need suggestions. I am currently running on the intergrated and it is obviously not that great. I have found a way that I can get the XFX 7800GT for about $275 after some tweaking with coupons...
I am aware of "loss leaders" . I wasn't asking if they were going to be 50% off just if they may discount them a little bit more. Thanks all for your responses.
I am looking to get a 7800GT and I see that prices are going down. I am holding out for X-mas and was wondering if any good online retailers of computer parts ever have a Black Friday sale?
I didn't think it was that bad as it will be $329 after rebate. I am not a big fan of rebates but I definately want to get a 7800GT before X-mas. Maybe I will hold out and see if the prices go down. From what I read it does have a lifetime warranty.
I was looking for a 7800GT and figured that prices would be going down. I am unsure what the overclocking does to this but I can bet my bottom dollar one of you guys will know. I was going to get an EVGA brand of the 7800GT but I saw this. It states $399 on the website but if you add it to...
Well, I thank everyone for their input. I am hoping that either the day after Thanksgiving that someone will have the 7800GT at a bit of a lower price. I may be able to crank out some extra money to get teh 7800GT rather than the X800 GTO. But I will still need to get a new PSU as I only have...
Hmm I guess I have a couple of options. I can get the X800GTO or the 6800GS...hmmm. I can probably swing the extra $50 for the PSU if it will help things. I was going to try and hold out for the 7800GT but I don't think it will be in my price range anytime soon. I will have to check these...
I have a 21" LCD widescreen and I need to get a new video card. I don't want to spend more than $200 on it and I currently have a 300Watt PSU. I don't want to have to upgrade that also if at all possible as that will sink me another $100. What would be the best bang for my buck? I need to...
I am running into the same thing with my Gateway. The PSU that they put in are about 300watts but I was told to get at least a 500watt PSU for the 7800GT, to be on the safe side.
The funny thing is that I don't need one with colored lights or fancy wiring. Just the basic coloring and wiring is fine with me as my case is not transparent. Thanks for all the suggestions. Is is possible to have too much wattage in a PSU? Will it hinder the performance of the PC?
Will the 7800GT give me native res on the 21"? I was trying to get away from paying so much for the card but I can always wait a little bit and I am sure that prices will go down. The GTX is just out of my price range and I will have to research the X1800XL
