So does any have a Chaintech Geforce 8800GTS 320MB because I am SERIOUSLY considering getting one...

Would just like some opinions, have you had any problems etc.D
 
My mate has the 740MB one and he loves it.

I would say wait for the price to come down a bit just now before u splash out...

As far as I know all geforce 8800 comes from the same factory and just get slapped on with a different sticker the exception being some factory overclocked cards from xfx,evga and bfg. And that some bfg and evga has some special coolers but since you can't get evga and bfg locally unless you now how to import that isn't a mayor concern.

That chaintech will be fine.

LOL I said the exact same thing in another thread but the coolers are made in different factories/to different specs and I was also wondering about the bundle. Not much detail on the web.
 
Not really coolers are shared by many as well...
Gigabyte give you Civ4, Sparkle give you Painkiller, Asus gives you Graw and 3DM06 so look for reviews online

Yes but doesn't Evga and BFG have some versions with watercooled coolers?? Like bfg has the 2 8800 gtx watercooled versions .

For most cards the coolers are the same but their are a few exceptions.
 
I have the Gainward 8800GTS 340mb for only a few days now and I'm Impressed.

Once I've tried out a few more games then I'll be able to have a more informed opinion.
