the fan is loud when it goes into high. And I don't blare the sound of warcraft 3 no.

Didn't think about it that way, interesting. So if thats true then there is a problem with it not going up in OpenGL games, and the cards getting very hot and not being properly cooled? To be honest, if a temperature of 79-83 is acceptable when playing doom, im content with the fan not...

I have noticed that if I play warcraft 3 long enough the fan kicks its speed up and becomes very loud. I quickly have checked the temp at these times and find it to be relatively low (63) compared to when i play doom 3 for example (79-81). When I am dooming for a long time the fan has never...

Screw it. Best buy lost my business. I'm in line for the Ultra at Chumbo. I can't let this card run my life anymore than it has. I'll get it when I get it. Taank

BFG 6800 Ultra, $175 price jack at computerHQ.com Anyone feel like being an idiot go be my guest. They have 17. At that price i guarantee you they will sell MAYBE 1 card.. then their stock sill sit at 16 for a few days, then they will lower it by like 10 dollars. then it will sit there for a...

I agree. I drove to 3 best buys today. (i just left my job and decided to enjoy my time off with a nice ride, so its no big deal). But, I called the best buy 45 minutes away and th guy told me they had 1 there. I asked if he could hold it and he said no problem. So i drive there .... 45...

Out Of Stock.

Just went to my local Best Buy.....they had em yesterday! Summamab1tches

Laugh. It is up to $489 from $439 this afternoon...and there are 4 left. I woulda bought it at $439. For anyone who wants to blow $489 on a $399 card... computerhq.com

mmm maybe im crazy but when i was at work earlier, i thought they had the LEADTEK for like 439.... it now appears to be 469. Either I am crazy, or they just raised it 30 bucks. Either way, I don't think im gonna pay that + shipping. Sooooo.....BFG you say eh? ?:)

Think BFG is louder than Leadtek? That might lean me in the leadtek direction, even if the thing is huuuge ;)

Thanks bro. wow, their price is $509 now for a gt. You got it at the right time man. I cant let myself get ripped like that at 509 though. anyone else got any thoughts on the 2 card manuf's ?

time is of the essence people

Can someone give me some wisdom and help me make this decision. I just built a new computer and dont really care about wasting a slot next to my vid card. (last computer was a sff). I don't care how pretty/ugly the card is. I like the OC of the BFG. I like the HUGE heatsink and the filter...
