Isn't the 7900GS supposed to be officialy released today?

[avi85]

where is there a thread about today's release? I couldn't find one.

If there is none then this can be one... 😉

I saw one on newegg for $213 or so earlier. No idea if it was in stock or not.

Does this card unseat the 7900gt?

No, it's the same as the GT except with 20 pixel units and 7 vertex. GT has 24/8. Very similar to a 7800GT, but with higher core/mem. OC's fairly well, same core as 7900GT/GTX - G71 core

Is the quad bios disabled?

Just wonder if it's hackable, bios wise. If it is then it's an awesome card for the price.

should ask the woot.com people who got them last week :laugh:

 

[formulav8]

Did they really get the cards in hand or what is a sham?

See if you can unlock the extra quad with RivaTuner.

K, I got the 7900GS from woot but never really played with RivaTuner. Just dl it. Anyone know where I need to go to try to unlock the extra quad?

RT doesn't seem to work with either of the beta drivers I tried. Hopefully an updated version will let us unlock it to full 7900GT.

the process should be identical, most important check and see if the Pixel unit is "masked" and not "disabled"

 

[imported_Ivan244]

ARGH! They say disabled. I checked them off and it says 24PP but on the main menu it still shows 20PP. Ah well, still a great deal🙂
