red930 Posted October 1, 2006 Some guy at XS reportedly flashed the GTO to GTX,if that's true fantastic deal. Well at least I might be able to get a GTO and flash to GTX and run SLI http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showth...ghlight=7900gto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Makse me consider selling off the XTX enven though it overclocks well on the storck cooler(with the fan on higer than normal) Yes it is true.. A lot of people have been buying 2 for sli. They say it will stomp a single 7950gx2. And 1 card will match a xtx. For 259.00 + 7 dollars 2 day shipping!! Had to jump on this deal ! Mwave is the only one that has not been sold out... And also I can not find this card anywere... Besides mwave, and I am sure they will sell out today. If not already! This card is like the New TMX Elmo doll. Sold out world wide..

red930 Posted October 1, 2006 I hear you Joe, GTX SLIed at that pricing might make sense even to me The speculation is that w/the launch of G80 coming,ppl are reluctant to buy a 7900GTX at retail,so they can dump them as GTO The GTO's reportedly have Same CPU Core Same PCB Same cooler Can be flashed to GTX The ram can vary from 1.1ns MSI,1.2ns eVGA,I heard of some at 1.4ns Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ExtraPickles Posted October 1, 2006 I snagged a GTO from ZZF for an air cooled HTPC box. Will be here Tuesday, we'll see how it plays with a 42" 1080p monitor... -pickles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uber-Noober Posted October 3, 2006 I definitely missed the boat on the 2x1gb ddr500 modules (prices for these right now are extortionate). I missed the boat on all those $250 7900gt's you guys all got way back when and with all the recalls of the 7900gt memory cards of the later models I really felt the burn. But not this time! Just ordered me one of these 7900GTO. $255 from Newegg (Rather give them the business over TD). What a steal!!! Can't get over the stock cooler on this thing! Blows hot air out back and cools GPU and 512mb of memory. Now I can school all you clowns in BF2 as my 6800gt (heatgun) will be sent to my younger brothers rig, where it belongs! Pong and Pitfall will run SO smooth now! Thanks for starting this link man. You rock! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
