Which GF4 ti4600 should i get? need to decide this week!! READ !!!!!!!!!!
 
ok well so far i have a visiontek on order but im thinking of possibly changing it.
i wana know what everybody else thinks about it. and which one i should get. it doesnt matter what it costs btw. just reasonable like under $500.

Stick with the visiontek... reason? hrm.. it's spec... nothing special... it's coming out first... (i think)... and what do the others offer that would make them more of a reason to buy than the visiontek? all ur gonna run on is a crt right? no dvi... so what's the big debate?

if you aren't into oc'ing, go with a crap thing like visiontech.

if you want to OC, get the gainward or asus. (The gainward's ram is guarenteed to do 750)

Asus is what I swear by for graphics cards. They OC very nicly.

Jason-Pro 03-04-2002 09:49 AM

brad how could you think i wouldnt oc a video card?!?!?
(its jason from the chat !!)

Brad 03-04-2002 07:27 PM

I knew it was you, your location, cpu, mobo give you away. Seriously though, just get the gainward or asus

i emailed gainward 3 seperate times asking them 3 different questions.
one was when will the Geforce 4 ti4600 be comming out. reply was: we dont know
question 2 was. will the video cards be comming with a dvi-vga adapter since there is only 2 dvi outputs on the video card. answer was: we dont know.
question 3 was. who sells gainward video cards that are online retailers. answer was we dont know.


talk about smart tech support. that was from 3 different people to. how screwed up can that be

it should be available fairly soon, Abbas at TBreak has a couple of big pictures of it, so he has one, and will be reviewing it soon.

I'm sure they will include an adapter from dvi to vga, I'm sure that less than 1% of the market would want dvi, and even less want dual dvi.

And I'm sure that many people will carry them, as they will be the best overclockers out there

Less than 1% of the market owns an LCD with a DVI port? That is just a blatantly dumb comment...

less than 1% of the world knows what a geforce is...whats your point?

i was meaning that out of all the people after a gf4 ti4600, less than 1% are going to be after a dvi equipped monitor. I know this is at least true in NZ.

I doubt that if you took a simple random sample of 100 Geforce4 users, less than one would say they have a DVI equipped monitor... unless you can prove your 1% theory.

Brad 03-05-2002 03:42 AM

here I very much doubt it, and I don't see too many americans with dvi connectors

iceheart 03-05-2002 04:34 AM

I've never even seen a relatively cheap (less than $1000) DVI monitor sooo I'm pretty much sure it's less than 1%

iceheart - clickhere ... That's $423 for a Viewsonic 15" LCD DVI monitor.

Kevin 03-05-2002 12:28 PM

And damnit I use a DVI monitor! :) The picture... is... so... crisp... I love SGI!
