Default My XFX 8800Gt is Here!!
So after only ordering it yesterday, my 8800 came by fedex this morning, what a service!, the card is awesome and looks really really cool! I know the card has been out a fiar while now but i am on a really low budget and a 8800 series card has always been a distant dream for me since th GTX was released winter '06!



[The Card still in it's foam protection! the fact that XFX put a protective seal on the decal design really impressed me!






The bundle including Company of Heroes, and the DND hanger! A nice touch!





The Card in all its glory






And the dual link DVI, must remember to attach the DVI to VGA adaptor, still running a VGA monitor! (Will upgrade soon!)

Haha...green on white in an obscure font FTL.

Fancy giving that card to me? You know you want to . Wish I could afford a new one .
Looks good dude.

EDIT: Strange how you have ATI cooling on that nVidia card :/. Methinks the sig needs updating.

The sli version only set me back £40 new, pretty good bargain, although the board can only do (x8,x8) in sli which kinda sucks! i will try and get the card to run on my 400w psu but somehow i doubt thats gonna happen!
