he was holding a black rectangular thing which i couldnt make out what it is since i didnt put on my glasses. after some formal greetings he shoved it into my hands saying: "this is yours". i took it and fumbled for my glasses then i saw the familliar shape of a graphics card(really, its very easy to recognize the shape of one) wrapped in anti-static bag. i was like: "cool! it finally came!" no offence, but he promised to pass it to me during the CNY holidays. he's a busy man, so i dont blame him. and his wedding is going to b in April.
obviously i would immediately swap out my old one n put this one into my PC but i found out that the only video output for the 8800 is dual DVI, which looks like this
the installation didnt took long, although there was some minor glitches due to my stupidity n greediness in overclocking the RAM. it's a power hungry card so it needs a PCI-e 6-pin power to supply power to it. n now, its up n running n i cant even get anything that would take 100% of the computing power of this GPU. i ran AVA on max setting n it still only runs at 95% capacity. it gets very very hot though. so imma try to run crysis n modern warfare 2 n see wat happens.
till then... cya
