Newegg starts selling Palits!

[p_o_s_pc]

do the palit cards use above stock volts for the GPU?

 

[calvary1980]

a Palit Rep probably wouldn't know those things, I like the Sonic it has a nice bundle except it's one of the few Vendor's that didn't include an HDMI cable which is a shame considering how well they did on the back plate ports, the cooler is mediocre and unnecessary. if I had a question it would be what Memory it's using I just can't seem to find any good photos .

palit guy .. 8800GS's when will we see them? with 1.0 ns memory too?

 

[btarunr]

Done. There's a trip to the factory in China next week so when everyone gets back we're going to do a TPU coupon code exclusively for TPU readers.

Any suggestions on what we should make the code?

Whoa. ^I can tell you this guy is doing his job well.

i just read back into the thread, he's serious!

This is the same reason we don't do a lifetime warranty. Just like the trade-in program it's a bunch of marketing crap that doesn't help you, the person that bought the card.

^ I totally agree with that.

I think cards should have longer than say, 1 year warranty...but anything over 5 is pushing it. A specific company (not saying who) with lifetime warranty doesnt even offer their warranty to EVERYONE. I bought the card with advertised "famous lifetime warranty" and when I tried to get an RMA number from them, they tell me it needs to be less than two years old because im not in the "region" of the lifetime warranty. ...Not buying from them ever again. The funny part is, I only got the card a year and a half ago but because I can't find the reciept they wont service it. Talk about bad customer service for a card with supposed "lifetime warranty".


Anywho, back on topic, I've used and bought palit cards for many people before and they haven't failed as of yet. They have been in Australia for quite some time, always with great prices .

If you need anymore just ask.

8800GT Super 1GB

 

[Palit_Guy]

A question for the palit dude...

When the next top end (single chip) nvidia card comes out, will there be non-reference designs available, or, as i suspect, does nvidia not allow this? (the reason i suspect this is there were never any non reference g80's (gts, gtx and ultra), yet there are non reference designs of the g92's and midrange cards

The top end stuff is teh exception. Both ATI and NV play those cards close to their chests. I'll refrain from commenting on that lest I get fired 8|

 

[Palit_Guy]

Nope. And that's how they pass the same QC tests as the regular cards. We could do that but the warranty would have to go down significantly.

I am trying to work with the factory to get the info required to do your own volt mod (obviously at your own risk). The OC guys over at TeamPalit are working on figuring it out on their own as well.

 

[calvary1980]

Thank You. Qimonda 1.0ns? is that a photo of the standard or oc model?

[[I.R.A]_FBi]

anything about the 8800Gs's? Why doesnt palit have more rear exhausting coolers, thats something that matters alot to me.

WTF? I'd answer your question but you prolly wouldn't believe me.

I come into one of the most tech savvy forums on the net and you suggest I don't know stuff. ROFL

Somebody post the LOLCANO for me please.

 

[ShadowFold]

LOLCANO Erupts!

EDIT: Sorry had too

I thought so. The first time you engage in a conversation with me you, subtly, insult me. I respond with humor instead of escalating things like a pair of CS players.

So ya, I think that's reasonably mature.

Just because I work for Palit doesn't mean I have to let people talk to me just any old kind of way. I don't give crap and I don't take crap- I'm not in the crap business (odd as that may sound because I'm in marketing).

 

[calvary1980]

huh? do they give you a commission for being an asshole. I read a review of the Sonic, you don't like what I have to say about the product too bad. Qimonda memory sucks, would of been worth the MSRP if Palit used Samsung, thats an insult.

[CrAsHnBuRnXp]

Whoa. Things seem to be getting a little too heated. Cool down please. We dont need this to turn into a flame war and have this locked and get members banned.

 

[Palit_Guy]

You can find the spec sheet on the memory here:

thanks.If you do get that worked out with the voltmods i would consider palit. I know that people find the voltmods at sometime but i would like to be able to get a voltmod when i buy the card.

 

[Palit_Guy]

Sure thing. There's usually more than one way to effect the volt mod but I figure no one would know better than the engineers that designed the board so I asked. Should know something soon.

Don't forget- if you volt mod, it's on you.

Palit saw that the stock cooler although at acceptable levels of noise and heat decided to be better and go for a nice quieter and more effiecinet cooler, this was because it was borderline high for the stock cooler althoug ha s i said acceptable. Its products have really fast clock speeds and the cards even oc way past normal levels. They have generally great warrenty and will accept most RMA. Even the fact that they have a knowledgeable rep going around the forums and answering questions makes me value them high.

The fact you choose to mock a great company and a great card (8800gt) makes me ashamed because you clearly dont have a scooby doo what your on about hen.

There ae plenty of reasons why to buy Palit
1. Non Stock cooling - works better alround cooler faster and quieter
2. Great Customer serivices - Need i say more
3. 3 Phase power design
4. Medium bundle - FREE GAME and connectors
5. Better ability to OC higher than stock
6. Cheap price but high quality
7. Good build quality
8. Cheap price
9. GOOD WARRENTY
10. Good memory used!
11. Not bad looking

They didnt include a hdmi cable well wah wah not every company needs to include a £20 cable that most users wont use, besides you want a better bundle you can go buy from another company or buy the rest yourself which is acceptable.

I wish there was a Newegg in the UK becasue currently the only place to get cheap prices is ebay or a long hunt on all the online retailers.

Palit 8800GS are already out.

[p_o_s_pc]

KIeran was that last post @ me? if it was im not try'n to dis them. I would just love to be able to get a volt-mod so if i want to push the video card even higher i know that i can find the voltmod easily.
