Hi all, I recently purchased an ASUS GeForce 6800 (NU). At present I am running the ASUS graphics driver version 62.11, and ASUS SmartDoctor version 4.54. I have been experiencing the following problems: 1. Rebooting on startup in Windows XP Service Pack 2. This happens when SmartDoctor...

kabob, the 6600GT is likely to be the best value for money. I've heard that the AGP version will be slightly cheaper than the PCIE version (but that's unconfirmed). Personally I couldn't wait, so I have purchased a 6800 (nu); similar performance (slightly better in most cases) but not quite...

Personally my price limit is AU$500, so that's either the 6800nu or the 6600GT (for myself). lnin0 may have a different budget. I'm inclined to agree - the 6600GT does offer a better price/performance ratio than the 6800nu. The 6800nu is similar in performance or marginally faster than the...

Not quite - the eVGA card sounds similar to the ASUS v9999 Gamer's Edition (fast memory with a 6800 standard GPU). The card I am looking at has slow memory with a 6800GT GPU. However, after posting I did find this thread. Sorry everyone, I should have checked first!

Hi all, For those of you who don't know, Asus has an unusual lineup with their 6800-based cards. Apparently this is due to a mix-up in the specifications before the cards were manufactured. One of their current lineup is as follows (it may be named differently in the US, but this is NOT the...

I have been making some enquiries as to the availability of the 6600GT in AGP. Here is a very bad translation from a German site: The full text is available here. The distributors (in Australia) don't know when these cards are due. I have emailed Sparkle, and they will be releasing...
