The 6800LE, if you get all the pipelines to unlock, 13000 is doable. How much are you scoring now?

not that the card stops functioning,if you have really bad luck, then you can't unlock all 16 pipes, if you unlock you'll get say 14 or worst case 12 pipes, I think the Leadtek's are the most sucsessful. K, you cant open "14" pipelines. Its either 16, 12 or 8. You will usually be able to ...

Eeek, I had a squeeze at some GT4 today on a mates machine and I am loving it.

From what I have tried the Audi RS6 pretty much owns (M5, DB9, et al) I manages to get a 52 sec lap time on one of the Suzuka tracks, the one thats not too curvey

There are no bots... which is pretty crap, but I am sure a mod will come out shortly to fix that...

You need to flash the Bios or go via RivaTuner which voids the warrantee and its only 80% chance it will work. The 6800LE now goes for that much at most shops. And no, unlocking the pipelines does not void the warrantee, as its done through software (rivatuner), and doesnt change anything on your c...

Unless...... you buy a new 6800LE for R1250, and unlock the pipelines. No 6600GT can touch it with unlocked pipelines...

HOW???!!!!

How what? U mean how do you unlock? Try THIS link....

I know the 1.6i velociti is quite nippy around town....dont know about the 1.4i

I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder....

It amazes me how they can still charge in excess of R100 000 for a car thats been in production for like 30 years.... R&D costs must be like R1 a car by now...

This thread should be renamed to "Want a 1000 extra posts in just 3 days, join now..."

76 isnt THAT bad. You sure the fans are spinning at 100% on full load. Check that using Riva tuner...

If I remember correctly, this tries to convert the card into a Quadro which, basically, isn't going to happen

Logitech X-530 or Z-640 (discontinued but you might still get a set here or there) are the way forward, no contest. Should set you back +-R640...

I thinks it called the 2002 Subaru Legacy B-Spec...fastests family saloon. I find that pretty hard to believe, seeing as this bad boy was out in 2002, the Audi RS6 Avant, which did/does 0-100 in 4.6s, and without the electronic limiter, easily hits 280km/h.... In all seriousness, choosing any Subar...

Eeek, its that time again... these years just go flying by...

Thanks a lot guys/girls!!

/me runs back to the party........

Yeah I checkout the Excaliburpc link that provides shipping to SA. There is one very minor issue and that is price. Just out of interest I picked some random 6600GT which goes for $240 (which is damn pricey btw). Then I clicked on shipping, and the cheapest shipping option was $128 ..... Hmm, you ad...

I dont understand how sum1 could need more power than a 6800GT, My budget x600pro (128bit,4pipes,DDR1) has yet to come across a game that it cannot play smoothly on a decent detail and resolution setting. my 9600se can play most games at lowest quality i would kill for the 6800gt. lol if u call 20f...

Like 660mbs as far as I remember...

I am 300mbs down already

Also sometimes I notice that if you delete all the files from the folder individually, and then delete the empty folder, you get around this problem...

Dont ask me why or how....
