Will a e7200 bottleneck a 8800gts

[cow_moo]

Will it if so let me know what GPU to get so there isn't a bottleneck

Also I'm building an SFF

you have a 9800 gtx... and a e8400...

your building it for a friend I assume?

a little bit... but not a lot so go ahead and get it... but i'd recommend getting a 4850 instead because the 8800 gts and the 4850 are about the same price and the 4850 is faster

Depends if you want to overclock or not. Those E7200s can get to 4GHz under 1.4V if you get a good chip.

 

[shadowthor]

+1 for randomizer, overclocking will definitely remove any possible bottleneck.

 

[cow_moo]

well I'm building this in a shuttle P35 and also would the 4850 give an even greater bottleneck if so should I go with an e8300 or something
the e8400 and 9800gtx is first build and is smoking

 

[cow_moo]

not building for a friend

Edit: also this computer will be used for lan parties and also to semi-replace a DELL inspirion 6000

Nah, unless you play FSX, Sup Com or WiC religiously, you'll be fine even at stock speeds. If you want to remove all doubt, overclock it, it has heaps of headroom to spare...

 

[th_username]

no

Get an e7200 with an after market cooler not to big as you said its for a shuttle but at least one better than the stock.

Up fsb to 1333 to get 3.2ghz with most likely with no voltage change and be done with it.

 

[randomizer]

Except at low resolutions you probably won't bottleneck to any noticeable degree. Maybe if you put a 4GHz Bloomsfield in it might run faster, but other than that you won't be missing much.

if it's on a 19 or larger, prob not, or not enough to matter.

If it does show an issue, turn up the AA.

There is no way that an e-7200 would come even close to bottlenecking a 8800GTS.

The e-7200 speed wise falls somewhere inbetween an e6600 and a e6750.

It is a very fast chip.

QUESTION: Why get an 8800GTS? A 4850 would trash the 8800GTS and even beat your 9800GTX.

You could get this MSI 4850 for $159 after rebate and it even comes with the new racing game GRID for free. The game alone is worth $39 and it is a great game also.

ok then would a 4850 bottlenck a E7200 no overclock

Also a 8800gts would fit in a shuttle P35 it has enough room I did the math

Also (again) I orgonally thinking to get a 8800Gt with an akimbo but when I was just on EVGA's site there is a 9800gt which is the 8800gt rebranded and was 40$ cheaper

 

[cow_moo]

I think I've made my decion I'm going to get an akimbo 9800gt but I'm still thing a bout the 4850 also I'm trying 1100$ or less an sugessted configs for a shuttle P35 used for LAN parties?

The 8800GT is 22% slower than the HD4850 which only costs about $10 to $20 more after rebate.

Personally I don't think there is any video card out right now by itself that would bottleneck a e7200.

The HD4850 is the better deal right now. The 9800 is no faster than the 8800. It is just a rebranded card. Same chip. Same clocks.

isnt the 9800GT suppose to be the 55nm shrink of G92? If so it should be a bit cooler, but I wouldnt expect a performance difference.

 

[cow_moo]

yes but I don't need awsome graphics power so I need the best thing so both arent bottlenecked yes 9800gt is 55nm so cooler

Any sugessed configs for a shuttle XPC P35 anyone??

 

[cow_moo]

also graphics card has to have these reqirements:

1. 9in long max
2. 100 - 200$
3. 4.5in tall max

Not at first. Nvidia has too many of the the 65nm fabs in circulation. The report I read was that the 9800GTs were going to be 65nm at first with 55nm model variants to come later
