My overclocked 8800 GTX with AMD X2 250 Regor

Got an 8800 GTX from a friends older build who upgraded to a GTX 480 awhile back. Popped it in the same system as in the last 2 threads i just made with my sig rig.

GPU is overclocked from stock 576/1350/1800 to 620/1458/2000

I haven't found the max overclock on the GPU yet just testing around with a basic overclock.

specs for test

AMD Athlon X2 Regor @ 3.0 ghz
EVGA Nvidia 8800 GTX 768 MB
2x2 GB G.Skill @ 1066 CAS-7
ACER DA061L-3D mobo outa a aspire 1420
Corsair HX-520


Final Score - 12,081


Out of the 3 cards (9600GSO 384, ATI 4850 512 and this)i am going to keep the 8800 GTX in use for now as it has the most VRAM and seems to run the quietest. I am surprised i used MSI afterburner to turn the fan to 100% and its not very loud at all. It tops out at 69C in 3dmark and idles @ 49C


Heres the link to the old build log where i scored the video card from. Its been out of use for over a year now.

on 3dmark06 my geforces always scored well, but the 4850 had higher FPS in games when resolutions were set to 1080p.

Good choice on that one. It's too bad they didn't make more 768MB+ 8800 series cards. They have more than enough horsepower to saturate 512MB.

I would like to sell all three of my cards and buy one better card with the cash.

EVGA 8800 GTX
ATI 4850 512 MB
Asus 9600 GSO 384 MB (96 SP)


Wonder if it would be worth it, i could sell them in a lot maybe on ebay?

I doubt selling them in a lot would help. people expect to spend less when buying in bundles. List them all on craigslist. id try for $100 for all three. ebay could work too, then you have shipping and fee's to deal with...
