The Geforce 6 Grave Yard (Did it die, is it in another comp. Please tell all)

6800NU x3 = dead
6800GT flashed to Ultra @ 440/1200 = dead
7800GS = sold to a friend

I take no prisoners!

 

went up to geforce 7 then onto radeon x1800xt 512mb both cards cacked out after a few months am still waiting on the rma on my x1800 so back to hte good old 6800gt and probably gonna stick with it and sell the radeon when it returns

loved the 6 series when it came out and still do

 

.. yeah Im hearing ya. Mine still cranks the newest games..not on full but close enough for me, and I cant really tell the difference by playing them as the change is so slight ... after a few beers I couldnt tell the difference anyway .

 

I sold my GeforceFX 5900SE on ebay for $60 bucks and used that money towards a Geforce 6800 non-ultra. I then sold it for $100 bucks on ebay and used that money towards my current 7600GT.

 

my msi 6800 nu volt modded and OC 450\850 is sitting in my mates pc, I let him use is as I felt sorry for him, he was using a nvidia 4200ti which I sold to him a year ago for 20 quid

 

My 6800 GT sits in its retail box, where it's been since the day I replaced it with a 7800 GT. So lonely...

 

SOLD- 6800NU to a friend of mine that needed a decent AGP Card.....

SOLD- 6800GS to someone on EBAY (in process for delivery)

AWAITING- MSI 7600GT 256mb w/ VIVO (upgraded to PCI-e) w/ a Gigabyte K8N-SLI Pro (trade)

 

Dark weasel, sell it to someone who needs it. Or Give it away if its just sitting there:0

Unless of course its some sort of backup

 

Some tragic tales here, my 5700 caught fire and scarred me for months...

My current AGP 6800 is sittin in my P4 rig, it'll soon be in my friends hands as a set of pcie 6800U's are coming my way.

 

Yip...whatta waste.

I had a 6800GT. I loved it cuz I had updraded from a 5900FX Ultra. Now that I have 2 7800GTX's, my 6800gt's been resigned to my mp3/movie/app/backup server.

 

exactly my 7800gt was great but switched to the radeon for the 512mb and it just bottlenecked the crap out of my cpu and could never get decent drivers for it always problems used to love ATI but now hate and 3 months with an x1800 never overclocked and memory module died WTF well built by msi and i have really good cooling so it wasn't an overheat problem

 

Yeah...my older ATI's always had trouble with new driver installs.
This 68GT no trouble no matter what I do .
But Im in upgrade mode now so I may get the Legend 7900GT 512mb card.

 

FX5500 OC (PCI) is chilling in my bro's PC.

Ti4200 replacement - in my old XP 1700
FX 5900U - sold to CEX
6800GT - sold on ebay for 20% more than I paid for it
X800XT - sold on ebay for 10% loss

What job are you in that allows you to afford all that!!!??!?

Unless you have to stand up to game if yi dig

 

ATI RageIIc - gone, it was my first 3d card.

Creative GeForce 2 Pro - sold it.

Gainward GeForce 2 Ti - Was OC'd to 300mhz core and 500mhz memory, I had to lower those clocks a bit though. Currently in my dads office server because its integraded ATI card fried, got Asus GeForce 6600nu AGP for replacement.

Gainward GeForce 4 Ti 4200 AGP8x "GS" - I still have it.

Gainward GeForce 6800 GT "GS" AGP - was overheating (up to 120c),so I got replace.

Gainward GeForce 6800 GT "GS" AGP - was broken, so I got replace.

Gainward GeForce 6800 GT "GS" AGP - again, was broken, so I got replace.

PNY 6800 Ultra PCI-E - finally a working card, currently in my second gaming system.

Now I have Connect3D Radeon X1800 XT 256mb.

 

lol, the 5900u was a nvidia pre-release - I just so happened to know somebody in the industry , sold it to CEX for more than it was worth which allowed me to get the 6800gt, then sold it for like £200 on ebay (bought it for £165 new!), got the x800 as an in-between card (only £120, sold for £105), then got my 7800gtx for £160. Just looking out for bargains; none of this fancy factory overclocked crap lol, though was planning on 7800gtx sli/7950GX2 before my horrible little cooling incident - thus I am, once again, poor. such is life.
