In the market if u r shopping for 6600 pci-ex card, there r 2 kinds of chipsets available for them.
1st one is unknown while second one is HYNIX …with original Hynix memory…which offers pure gr8 performance & memory bandwidth than the later one.
but its bit costly …Rs. 800 more.
so bware…
btw XFX Geforce 6600 128 MB = 7400/- [normal chipset]
XFX Geforce 6600 128 MB = 8300/- [HYNIX chipset]
Dude do u know what ur talking about?
If the speed is same (i.e. the speed of the ram chips)then their performance will be same.
The hynix ram based may overclock a bit more though.
AFAIK-XFX uses either samsung or hynix.
if is it so??? then why so much price difference between the two???
6600 vanilla I’m not sure of, but the 6600GT only has samsung GC20 GDDR3 chips. Infact samsung and infineon are the only makers of GDDR3. Go for the GT, don’t buy the vanilla. Price difference is hardly anything.
I think what he means is that one of them has a 64bit memory interface while the other have a 128
maybe he thinks hynix is superior?? :huh:
BTW i had a XFX FX5200, with VData chips. oced nice from 333MHz to 460MHz without artefacts…
Herz what I observed back in Dec:
The 5700le 128mb had samsung 4ns chips that wud do 600+ but the card was 64-bit.Damn.
The 5700le 256mb had hynix 5ns chips that do only 510mhz.But this is the 128-bit card so had no option but to get his one.
The XFX 6200 agp is out,btw ,its 64-bit based on NV44a,uses passive cooling but is as good as a normal 9600 according to a review I read.
Its a shame though,as the 6200 is still a very capable card if it were not crippled by a 64-bit bus.
