Title: EVGA 9800GTX settings question
Post by: Max on February 27, 2009, 09:36:37 AM

Saw the 9800 GTX 512 on NewEgg for $129 (w/rebate) and jumped on it. Do I need to change any vid settings for AH? My old card was a 7600GT.

Thanks  :aok

I went from a 6600 -> 9800GT, and pretty much maxed out everything in AH and the nvidia control panel. Now set to 8xQ AA (Quintic is best AA mode for games if you have it), triple buffering etc.

Fans real noisy though, thinking about fitting one of those passive Artic Coolers to it..

Yes.  Turn everything up in the Nvidia control panal.   ;)

I'm running 16x AA, 16x AF with my 8800 GTS 512 (about the same card).

I have everything maxed on my 8800GT and it does fine, 9800GTX is just a bit more powerful so you should be able to max everything just fine.
