New 7800 GS problems......

Re: New 7800 GS problems......

Sad to report that this machine only puts out 250 watts of power. I'm off to buy a new mobo and processor to put in my "crap" computer, which has a 400W PSU that came with the case.

I picked up a 500w power supply for free with 28A on the 12v rail and it still can't run the game.....

This card goes back and i'm picking up the equivilant ATi card......

Incredibly disapointed in EVGA and Nvidia....

Well the problem now is that i'm limited to Circuit city since they were CC Gift Cards i used (unless by some miracle they give me a full credit back to my CC).

And CC's ATi AGP selection doesn't look too good....... I might try out the same 7800gs but from XFX and see if that makes any kind of difference at all but i'm not holding my breath....

Just pick up a 6800 if you can find one. It will out pace the 9800 and doesn't have as high power requiements. I ran a BFG 6800 GT OC on a 350watt psu. 2 gb ram, p4 3.0, 2 DVD-RW's and 4 SATA hdds (2 80gb Seagate and 2 250 SATA2 WD) No problems. Hope you can find one thay are are to come by.
