    Hey man, just wanted to thank you for the videos. Your content has made me a lot more budget minded PC-wise.
    Recently my girlfriend was looking to buy a new laptop, but I talked her out of it and made a parts list that even managed to cut below her intended budget for a new PC. We're gonna build it together (I'll try to teach her how to do it) and I believe it will be very fun.
    I wouldn't have come up with such a nice budget build if it weren't for your videos, so thanks man.

      Also, wasn’t the unlocking for 6800’s to different 6800’s? If I remember correctly the 6600GT was a completely different GPU than the 6800GT, at that time it probably would’ve been 8 pipes for the midrange and 12 for the high end. I do remember it was possible to upgrade “standard” (no GT/GS) to GT’s for some 6000 series cards, I think the 6600LE was a good one to try. And oh man, the memory OC on some of those 6000 series was awesome! 6000 series was so awesome, especially after the failure of the 5000.

So I dug into my closet of old PC parts and found an ATI Rage 32. The board had a legacy PCI so I checked to see if it could install windows and even make it to desktop.

It was also the first card that I tried to OC, and failed miserably, because I didn't know much about it when I was young.

    I still actually run one of these paired with an Optiplex 780 Core2Duo E8500 machine. Pretty much using it as an on-demand video storage server and sometimes running Windows 7 specific apps these days. I did game on it for the lulz in the past. Although it never was my main rig, but much later "thrash to treasure" finding from work. The card is an MSI DDR3-variant, but with only 256MB of VRAM. Passive cooled though with a beefy heatsink, stays at pretty tolerable temps.
    When I was in high school, I actually had a Pentium 4 540J Prescott system (later got an Athlon64 X2 dualcore upgrade), paired with another MSI 8600GT, can't remember if it was DDR2 or DDR3 but 256 megs too I'm pretty sure and active cooling. We also bought a few of those NEW with my school friends to use at school, since we had a gaming space arranged to our locker room with old hardware bought cheaply from the Internet and "borrowed" from school (mostly Athlon64/AthlonXP stuff, but also some Athlon X2 machines with PCI-E). The reason for buying those cards new was that they sold those online for 38 euros or something like that. It was a decent little card for the time with a tiny cooler but not too noisy and didn't overheat, MSI did a great job on it. Much better gaming experience still than some integrated chipset stuff or AGP systems we had.
    Performance was what it was, but personally I bought one for myself so my Pentium 4 rig could decode HD video with GPU, I think 8x00-series was the first to have ability to decode stuff with GPU. Still have that card inside of some older computer at the basement, and my friend uses one of the cards he acquired when the school ended to test suspicious systems with shady PSU:s and such. Still modern enough card to test other functions and does not take a lot of power.

    I had this exact same GPU in my prebuilt system from 2008. It died some time in 2015, but until then it did its job like a champ. I was able to run some new-ish games at all low settings, and as a kid I was more than content with that.

    If you have one, and if not track down one, take the 8600GTS for a spin in modern games. Had these in SLI. Great at the time.

    I remember back in 2007 when my dad bought a prebuillt mid-lvl media pc and i desperately tried to run my all time favorite game Test Drive Unlimited (which was pretty new at the time) but couldn´t get further than the starting screen because of the weak 128mb integrated graphicscard. I went to a very small pc shop in the next village and showed the owner the required system specs to run TDU, which was atleast a 6600GT with 256mb if i remember correctly. So he ordered a Gigabyte 8600 GT 512mb with a passive cooler for me. I was so excited and happy when i got my pc back after some days and was finally able to play TDU. So, as far as im concerned the 8600 GT is alright eventough it´s not the most powerful card. Even back in the days. But i have some nice memories connected with this card. So thanks RGinHD for making a video about the 8600 GT :)

    Nice, my current PC uses the EN8600GT, the only difference that I have the silent edition which uses the negative air pressure inside the case to force airflow over the heat sink.

    I have an FX 5500 PCI that is unused, but that I recently unboxed. Got it for 1 dollar at my local flea market. It has 128mb of ddr1 and was released in 2004. Lemme know if you’re interested and I might be able to send it to you for a review and benchmarking.

    I just noticed you have the same speakers as I do. Another solution to feedback is If you put them on their own usb power supply. It should eliminate unwanted noise.

    I remember the first ever card that I used in my home PC. It was a 8500GT with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ and 4GB DDR2.
    So good memories playing MapleStory, Grand Chase and Perfect World... All of my friends impressed because I was the only child able to play those games at 60fps before 2008 hahaha.
