Bit-Tech published a review of BFGTech's GeForce 8800 GT OC 512MB



A quote from the article:

We continue to be impressed by Nvidia's GeForce 8800 GT and in the grand scheme of things, and BFGTech's overclocked card continues that trend. Admittedly, the BFGTech 8800 GT OC is only a few frames per second faster than the reference card in most scenarios, but the benefit of the BFGTech card is that it comes with a decent warranty and, from experience, good customer services too.

At around £182 (inc. VAT) with free delivery for active bit-tech forum members, it's not the cheapest GeForce 8800 GT available - but it's well-placed in the middle of the pricing matrix. XFX's Alpha Dog XXX Edition, which comes with 670MHz core and 1950MHz memory clocks is all the way up at £223 (inc. VAT), while the cheapest stock-clocked GeForce 8800 GT we've seen is around the £165-mark.

Ultimately, it depends what you're after and, if you don't mind waiting a few days, BFGTech's GeForce 8800 GT OC2 should be available to buy on Overclockers UK for around £195 (inc. VAT). This card comes clocked at 675MHz core, 1674MHz shader and 1950MHz memory -- you can achieve this with a bit of overclocking on the 8800 GT OC, but is it worth saving £10 to potentially void your warranty?

On the whole, BFGTech's GeForce 8800 GT OC card delivers and it earns a recommendation from us, but we'd like pricing (on the whole) to settle down to more respectable levels. At the very least, we'd like the prices to come down to the levels we were told the GeForce 8800 GT was expected to hit in the run-up to its launch back on the 29th October. I guess we're not going to see prices settle down until the demand starts to drop off a little though, so it's a case of either get one when you can, or wait a while until the demand shrinks -- supply is very short at the moment it would seem, as everywhere we've looked, all GeForce 8800 GTs are on backorder.
