Well, its a pretty simple question,
Is it worth for me to buy an Asustek EA X1900XT ATi card for 370$ but have no warranty AT ALL or buy it for 520$ but have a two years warranty on it?... its a 150$ diffrence, and if theres not much femiliar problems right out of the box with it i'd rather not spend them.
I Mean, if I were buying a 7900GT KO I would DEFINANTLY pay those extra 150$ for the warranty, cus those are known to have bad factory voltage mods and OCs that cause them to crap out right of the box, but does the X1900XT has a femiliar DOA problem too? I know ATi forbids 3'rd party factories to OC their cards or volt mod them
BTW This card is going to be watercooled by a pretty high flow w/c kit [d5 Laing swiftech pump, 1200liters/hour with 11ft head pressure, on a Maze4 gpu block and 1/2" tubes.] and will probably oced but not gonna check its limits of OCing frankly.
If theres any X1900XT owner here i'd like to hear your personal experience.
Thanks,
-Jo.
