GeForce 6600 GT Confused

Postby gothicsyn » Fri Jan 06, 2012 5:17 pm

Ok so I have a GeForce 6600 GT installed ibn my system (yes I'm aware it's considered ancient but it's reliable for what I need atm) Anyway everywhere I looks it's listed as a 128Mb Card but mine is not,

The card bios and all system reports all come back as a 256Mb Card I dont gte it cos anywhere I look it's always listed as a 128. any Ideas have I got a diff card thats been mislabelled somewhere? Or are the specs on here incorrect?

You cant find a 256MB Geforce 6600GT on Game Debate or generally you cant find it on the internet? On GD there is only the 128MB version. The 256 mb ersion will be added soon

Ive seen them around on the web but it seems even Nvidias site list it as a 128Mb card. But as I said mine is a 256 it just confuses me, but if the 256 is been added then at least i know its now my card thats wrong.

Your card is right. Its a 256MB one. Old cards on nvidia's site do not include all versions. For a example I cant find one of my old cards the 8600GT which had a 512MB DDR3 memory and I only find a 256MB DDR2 on nvidia.com

I suppose as long as the drivers are right it isnt so bad lol Though I noticed they have recently updated most of their older driver packages.
