Hardware question: What's the difference?
2007-03-04, 9:53 AM #1
I'm looking to replace my GeForce 6600 GT because it has been having some issues with heating. I found a cheap card that seems to be the same thing. However, it's a GeForce 6600 GT OC. Wtf does the OC mean?

Random guess: overclocked?
Code to the left of him, code to the right of him, code in front of him compil'd and thundered. Programm'd at with shot and $SHELL. Boldly he typed and well. Into the jaws of C. Into the mouth of PERL. Debug'd the 0x258.

If it's from BFG, then it basically means overclocked. BFG slightly overclocks their cards above stock speed and sells them with the "OC" moniker. Basically it's the same card as your old one (assuming memory is the same size), except a little faster, but doubtful that you'll notice it being faster.

Ogre Caller.

Basically, any time you play games, it calls an ogre to beat you. It's the new parental control from the government.

It stands for 'Orioles Cap,' because the circuitboard is made from recycled Baltimore Orioles Baseball Caps from about 2003-2006.
