    Please count me in ! How to contact you ,Adrian .We really don't have much choices down here, mainly 5200 stuff. They never heard about BFG, that why i was unable to build my own ! Once i was trying to assemble my own but the parts were so out of date that i have to give up and ordered a Dell instead.At least i got a 9800pro

    that's a great idea for people live outside of US to get cheaper stuff from US. It's good thing what you guys have done.

    Hmm.. Well, I once tried to help people by organizing a bulk buy for Mushkin memory but was lambasted for that.

    That's why we now keep the bulk buys to Team ARP members only. If people have a trust issue, why bother? ;)

    If you are interested in bulking with us, well, we can certainly consider it. What do you intend to get?

    I can buy it for you guys if you wanted. Although, I need the money first 'cause I can't shed out that much money before hand.

    6800 cards are native AGP cards ;) Only Nvidia's latest cards, the 6600 and after it, are PCI-e native.

    I think it is too much a hassle to source for the BFG. I will get someone to buy me the INNO3d 6800GT from Hong Kong and hand carry back. Anyone heard about this brand ? Check on inno3d.com about the product and tell me what u think ? Locally someone quote me a Asus one but only 128mb.Down here products are so out of date ! Recently i was in Hong Kong, they were pushing the wireless n series, locally we still stuck with the b series, not even the g series. It is really frustrating to source for hardware here ! Please chech out on the INNO3D for me , thanks !

    Inno3d should be ok as it follows the reference design... :mrgreen:

    OK, i will stick to the INNO3D 6800 GT then. Singapore is selling at about RM1800-2000. Hong kong at about RM1600. Expect to receive it early Jan. If i want to OC it , what should i do ?

    Well just overclock it what else? :lol: Not satisfied with the results? Upgrade cooler. Still not enough? Voltage mod :lol: If you are still not satisfied, upgrade to phase change cooling :haha: :haha: just joking :p

    Just rec the INNO3D 6800GT,installed , download the nvidia 66.93 driver and downloaded coolbits too. Try a few games at high resolution, look pretty good. Being a newbie don't quite dare go into OC right away. anyone can point a direction ! don't hv any additional cooling yet, saw my core/memory is at 350mhz/1.00ghz which is quite low compare to the results that i gathered from few forums. I don't want to end up with a expensive paperweight ! cheer

    this wont hurt the card at all. use rivatuner and unlock the pipelines. you might just have a ultra for the cost of nothing. if it doesnt, work then undo the softmod.
