Those who are like me and cannot afford the all mighty nVidia Geforce 8800 should be happy to know that nVidia’s mid-range 8000 series card will be out soon.
The 256MB GeForce 8600 GTS is set to be around $229, 8600 GT will be $149 to $159 and the 128MB GeForce 8500 GT will sell as low as $89.
GeForce 8600 GTS — 256 MB GDDR3, 675 MHz core clock, 1000 MHz memory clock
GeForce 8600 GT — 256 MB GDDR3, 540 MHz core clock, 700 MHz memory clock
GeForce 8500 GT — 128 to 256 MB DDR2 or GDDR3, 450 MHz core clock, 700 MHz memory clock
All of these cards should be available the same day as announcement date on April 17th.

I’m eying on the GTS
Yeah, me too, looks awesome, although I don’t think i’ll be able to SLI it up with my 7600…
Anyways, better have one 8600 GTS than only one 7600 GT.

7600 GT is still decent, if i were you i’ll save up for 8800 :)
do u need windows vista to play with these cards?
Windows XP will work just fine
Should I get myself another 7600 GT, Watercooling or just wait for the 9800?
I would personally get another 7600GT and SLI it if your mobo support it, better for the cash flow you know :)

No you cant use this motherboard for the PCI-E video cards. Time to upgrade dude
thanx alot bec u answer me

and i read in some sites that some AGP 3.0 cards (o.8v) can work on AGP 2(4x)(1.5v) mother board slots is that right

I know for sure 9200se 8X AGP works on 4X slot since i used to have 1 4X AGP board running it. but bet is to upgrade, a new machine might do you more good
Bought myself a new crosshair motherboard with AMD 2x 3.0 Ghz with 2 Nvidia 8600 Gts cards in it, 2 Gb ram and is awsome, plays any game i want in highest quality.
