XFX Loads 1.5 GB of Memory Onto Special GeForce 9600 GSO

rangerone766 · Jan 18, 2009

depending on price that would be a great card for what i do.

i've told everyone this before, but i'll say it again.

i play a game called silkroad online, and i cheat at it with a bot. using the multi client hack i can only get about 4-5 chars logged on with a 512mb card(4870) and a guad core with 4 gigsof ddr2. one of my guild mates has a rig with a 2180 dualcore, 4gigs of ram and a 9500gt with 1gig of ddr2 on it. he can run 7 or 8 clients easily on his rig.

so a 1.5 gig card should let me get about 10 clients going. gold bots ftw lol

i don't believe that at all

LittleLizard · Jan 18, 2009

the only persons who are going to buy that card are noobs

rangerone766 · Jan 18, 2009

i'm running 4 clients here, and folding at the same time.

wow, low res monitors ftl!

rangerone766 · Jan 18, 2009

nope my monitor is 1680x1050, but the bot does need 1024x768 to run properly. that way it knows where to click the screen when buying from npc's.

this thread is moving off in a tangent from it's original direction. i will just say this, this card will sell to mostly the uninformed, but that doesn't mean its completely useless. there are some people out there who will make full use of it. i was only trying to describe one situation where 1.5 gigs on a video card could be taken advantage of.

KainXS · Jan 18, 2009

yeah back on track

Random Murderer · Jan 18, 2009

i suppose you could use it for CAD work, but even a 3870 does fine with CAD nowadays...

The 9600GSO are selling fast. XFX made a smart move using 96SP instead of the revised 46SP (or w/e number it was)

One user made a comment saying only noobs would buy this. Wrong, dedicated F@H users (such as myself) find this to be a great product.

Just my two cents

If the price is right I might buy one for a folding rig.

It reminds me of the 8500 GT 1 GB version: 1 GB of DDR2 on a 128 bit bus. :shadedshu
Sure, this card may be good for folding or CAD, but surely there are better options!

I don't really understand why ATI/Nvidia make high vrams for low-end cards and low vrams for high-end cards.

This is useless. I might just use this as a PhysX card.

with physics need high GPU , high ram can do anything

I would suggest it was like adding crap to crap, but that works fine too
