got my hands on something that is on everyone's wishlist atm. its red, its fast, its got a single slot cooler & has great performance.


no its not the ati 3850, its the msi 8800gt oc.






its got a decent bundle. has all the needed cables & 2 games. lotr online & dirt.



card in action.


1st run with 3dmark06 with card @ default factory oc speeds of 660 / 1650 / 950.


i got the card yesterday. but the card was faulty, had issues etc & after 5-10min it died. sent it for replacement today morning & got this today evening.

damage = Rs.15,000/- all inclusive.
also changed my mobo from xfx 650i ultra to asus p5n-e sli





damage = exchange
also removed 1 of the seagate 320gb from the system & added a 2nd wd500aaks hdd last week. no pics for it.

damage = Rs.5400/- all inclusive.
 
Good buy. Run it for a few days and see if you need any better cooling :p As for me, ATI's new cards initial pricings don't seem attractive at all to me from what I've read. So it'll mostly be a non-OCed 8800GT for me whenever I build the new rig.
