The GX2 Posse (9800GX2 Farmers Thread)

[CyberDruid]

I know you're out there...hording your 9800 GX2s...planning feverishly into the night as more and more arrive in the mail each day...go ahead...make a HW p0rn enthusiasts day and post some secret stats and spycam shots of your badboy collection in this thread.

You know who you are

Mine's not that impressive...but it is growing.

1 eVGA .

But I hear the rumble of a GX2 pack...the squeal of capacitors...the smell of fresh roasted PCB material...

Show yourselves!

That's over 100 9800GX2 cards and counting...shaaazaaam

[cuy50]

If only I had the money.....my parents refuse to let me buy more computer parts. (Oh well it's off to college next year hehe).

Any chance we can get some pics CD?

[CyberDruid]

Soon...tied up with the fam right now...but soon.

I want to see some Big Dog piles of 9800GX2...like it was a firesale at Nvidia...

C'mon now

Time to Posse Up

[subliminally incorrect]

lol at one point , everyone is dissing the 9800GX2 and now people are praising it(for folding, of course). i guess hell did freeze over.

[CyberDruid]

Yep. And no sense in buying the GTX2 295 because they are about to revise and re-release it as a single PCB card.

I'd never buy a 9800 GX2 for anything except Folding lol...but it's actually a quiet running card, unlike the HDs.

[K092084]

I sadly only have 1 and money is kind of tight to get anymore, not to mention how it is going to affect the power bill.

A posse of 1 is better than no Posse at all. Welcome!

I have (only) three at the moment. One (EVGA) has been going for about a month since I sold my EVGA 8800GTS(G92) cards in favor of the space saving design of the 9800GX2. This allowed me to free up two more slots in the 680i mobo that I am running.

Two weeks ago I ordered my second GX2, but have been waiting on Thermaltake to get off their lazy butts and send me my 650W VGA power supply. I will not go into detail over my first and probably last transaction with TT, but I will say that because of them screwing me over with my time constraints that I will try to avoid Thermaltake products in the future.

Finally, last Friday I was kind of bored so I made an impulse buy of my third 9800GX2 off of Ebay. This one is the generic Nvidia version but I must say it was my favorite transaction so far. The seller first of all did a fantastic job of packing the card. Also, I was given some very nice accessories! I got an spdif audio cable, a 6 pin PSU to 8 pin GPU cable, an 8 pin to 8 pin extension, and an 8 pin PSU to 6 pin GPU cable. This was a nice addition.

I am waiting on the 650W PSU from Thermaltake. It should be here on Monday. I will be heading over to my folding rig (It sits in an office about 45 minutes away from my current residence) to get everything situated probably Wednesday afternoon. Then Hephaestus will be completely full and folding like a fiend! I will get some pics when I get it all put together.

Tis true, now if I can find 1 at a good price I will get it and give my current 9800gx2 a friend.
