When will we see a Gainward 6600GT AGP

[Corey0808]

How long does it usually take Gainward to introduce their cards after the product launch by Nvidia? I have a Gainward Golden Sample right now and it's been a great card and I'm interested in purchasing their cards again. Thanks!

Anybody have any ideas?

No clue, but BFG's AGP 6600GT looks like a winner. Comes pre-overclocked at 525\1050 (stock is 500\1000, and it looks like most AGP 6600GTs will ship with 900MHz RAM to offset the cost of the bridge chip). Add that to their lifetime warranty and toll free 24/7 tech support that speaks American English (opposed to Indian Engrish) and the BFG is even harder to resist.

My younger brother and I need to get him a faster card to replace his Radeon 9000 Pro. Its going to be an AGP 6600GT from either Gainward or BFG . . . unless I can talk him into dropping 400 for a full 6800 GT.

I don't know about when they'll be available for retail, but here are some cool pics. I can't wait either.

Not sure if they'll make the Golden Sample GLH for AGP, but it's one damn sweet card! 540/1150 :Q

I just bought the XFX 6600GT AGP version yesterday off Monarch... Do you think I can overclock it to the same specs as the Gainward? Also does anyone know about that crazy connection out of the back of the card hooking into the S-Video? XFX 6600 GT AGP

It's the same card that anandtech reviewed. $223 shipped off Monarch makes it a hot deal compared to new egg.

I can buy it here in South Africa (strangely enough), can someone tell me what is in the box? Games etc. I don't see anything on their site. Thanks
