Hello again...


Another question.


I bought an AGP card "GeForce 7900GS 512MB (256-BITS) DDRIII" of inno3d now when I goto inno3d website or nvidia website I only find a card with 256MB 256BIT under 7900GS, I am sure my card is "GeForce 7900GS 512MB (256-BITS) DDRIII" and its from inno3d

its not GTX of that im sure to also from where to get its latest drivers as inno3d has an old drver version for download and nvidia has a more current one available.

second question, nvidia, inno3d and xfx they all produce Gforce cards and they all have nvidia chip in them...

can anyone explain to me why 3 companies producing the same line of series?

is it one of the i-chill models, as they go upto 512

Nvidia makes the chips, the other companies make the actual boards and put the chips on them.

Checked the links you posted, no it isnt the iChill series, I installed the AGP my self on the board, its the same as the normal 7900 series...

Got that but what about my AGP card how can it be 512 when inno3d doesnt has one????

1) You should use the latest driver from Nvidia website.

2) You can see how much memory your card has.  Click the "Start" button, "Run..", type "dxdiag" and click "Ok".  On "Display" tab, you should find information about your card, including the amount of memory.

Hopefully that will clear up the confusion.

Its 512MB ... but its not IChill I am sure becoue I instaled the card my self, and its diffrent from iChill and same as 7900GS, as it says in the attachment

Which drivers should I get?

no driver/utility came with your card?

Finally found a way nvidia website has an activex that automatically finds the drivers ..


Yippeee!
