Thats a GeForce 6800, there is a Club and POV 7800 but they are clocked lower from the look of it.

Better than that! it works!!!!!!!

Peace is restored in the BlueBall household

Basically, you need a jewellers screwdriver to remove the 5 or 6 tiny screws holding the coloured plate in place over the fan housing. On the back of the plate is some sticky polythene type substance which the fan rubs against. peel it off, replace coloured plate, reinsert graphics card and reboot. Peace, perfect peace.

Now why didn't XFX do that  <_<

would welcome some reviews of the new 7800GS AGP when you have time. Thinking of getting one myself dont want to get rid of my old AGP setup quite yet as it still does the biz on most games. Maybe when BF3 comes out I'll upgrade or when we get sight of the official MS VISTA spec.

I can play BF2 at 1280x1024 with 2xAA and high detail at 80 to 100 FPS. Need I say more?

When you get it, strip of the plastic inside the shroud before you fit it and then you can happily OC it to 450/1.35 (gives a nice 1 to 3 speed ratio)

Would there be an overwhelming reason to ditch an X800XT for one of these?

Dunno, I'm not too up on ATi cards. Is the X800 similar in idea to the 6800GT?

The 7800 GS beats my old 6800GT into a pulp. I'm hitting 100 fps in BF2 at 1280x1024 with occasional drops to 75/80 fps plus you get SM3 support and hardware video support (which the 6800 lacked). I reckon the card is up to 50% faster than my 6800 GT was (and it had been clocked to run like a 6800 Ultra)
