Ouch......that's too hot. Maybe u didnot put the HSF back correctly also improve the airflow, just adding more fans doesn't helps.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Call a educated dealer and set it right. Else have the company guys set it right, make sure he doesn't void your warranty by telling you that why did you take the HSF out in the first place

There are 6800s with 128mb, 256mb and even 512mb

unlock/oc is through software

the 'Best Value for Money' 7600 GT card is Palit 7600 GT Priced at Rs.8900

I thought that they were selling for 8500/- in Delhi a couple of weeks back. Has there been an increase in pricing?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

the gF7 cards[except 7800] are built on new 90nm technology whereas 6800 nd 7800 are 110nm. So the 90nm ones can attain much higher clocks ne runs at lower temps nd also requires less power. They are cheaper than comparitively similar perfomance GF 6 cards as their manufacturing cost is much lesser nd the card layout, size, amount of silicon, area of heatsink...all is less. As with all other technology ...the latest technology is always better.
By the by a 7600GT oced can get 6700~6900 points in 3D Mark05.But only the ultra varient in 6800 oced can attain such high scores.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Help me people!

My config is as follows.
Asus A8N-E
AMD Athlon 64 3200+
256 X 2 400MHz DDR
Big Nvidia 6600 256 MB (Non GT)
etc etc

My problem is, my 3dmark 05 score is very low (around 1800). :(

When i run the features test, Pixel Shader tests run fine ( fps around 60), but the Vertex shader tests give me fps around 2 fps :(

I am running XP Pro + XP Pro 64, latest drivers and direct X.

Is there a problem with my Card?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

First go to nidia ctrl panel nd set the values to min nd move the perfomance quality bar to perfomance.
Open task manager nd see how many ram is free before openin 3D Mark. For a total 512 MB free mem should be around 400mb or greater. Or quit some unwanted apps from teak manager's "process" tab.
Also see if ur mem is runnin in dual channel...nd set to 400 mhx in bios. U can see if its dual ch using cpuz.

Thanks for the fast reply!

I installed windows + Motherboard drivers + Gfx Drivers (nothing else) and ran the benchmark still the same result. Nvidia ctrl panel has Antialiasing None, Anistropic Filtering Off, Vertical Sync Off.

Here is the CPUz screenshot!

Still same result, as i said in the features test, vertex shader test give only 2 fps! :(
